Chief Financial Officer

Still clinging to the equity dream?

You know the one-where your current business sells for silly money and you ride off into the sunset, rich, relaxed and raving about your good fortune.

Except… that sale isn't coming, is it?

The market's flat, your sector's stale, and the so-called golden handcuffs are starting to feel more like rusted shackles.

It's a tough decision-knowing whether to stick or twist. Especially when your future payout is dangling just far enough away to keep you hanging on.

But if your career was a game of cards, this would be the easiest twist you'd ever make.

Here's why:

• This is a PE-backed, buy-and-build rocket ship with plans to double in size and flip in 12-18 months. And they're offering a real LTIP tied directly to the sale. Not a vague handshake. A proper, written-down, financially meaningful reward.
• You won't be cleaning up someone else's mess either. This business is already profitable, already growing, and already full of decent, ego-free grown-ups who genuinely understand the value of culture-and protect it.
• No politics. No drama. Just a solid plan, clear leadership, and a finance team that already knows what it's doing.

Your job?

• Bring your M&A experience. Commercial sharpness. Strategic thinking. And you'll have the time and headspace to do it properly-without getting dragged into the weeds.

You can work from home 2-3 days a week.

And here's a rare one-35 days holiday. That's seven full weeks to rest, recharge, or just stop thinking about EBITDA for a bit.

They know burnout isn't good for business-so taking your time off isn't just allowed, it's encouraged.

Only accepting candidates with good banter, no egos, significant M&A experience, and a solid track record of operating in PE-backed businesses.
