The details

Marks Sattin Executive Search is working with a fast-growing, B2B business operating in a campaign and asset-led environment. With strong commercial momentum, expanding operations across multiple regions, and a clear plan to significantly scale EBITDA, the business is entering an exciting new phase of growth and professionalisation. The CFO will play a central role in accelerating this journey, partnering with the board to evolve the finance function, enhance commercial visibility, and support both organic and acquisitive growth. This includes building scalable infrastructure, improving forecasting and reporting, and supporting strategic initiatives across the business

Working closely with the leadership team, the CFO will influence decision-making across the business by providing financial clarity around performance, cash flow, budgeting, and investment planning. A key focus will be the evaluation and integration of potential acquisitions, alongside the implementation of fit-for-purpose systems, processes, and reporting tools.

This opportunity is well suited to either a proven CFO or a Divisional Finance Director or Group Financial Controller level on the upward trajectory and ready to step into a number one role. The successful candidate will combine strong commercial acumen with operational grip, and bring a solutions-focused, pragmatic approach to enabling growth in a dynamic and entrepreneurial setting.

The Ideal Candidate

  • Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA)
  • Proven experience as a Divisional Finance Director or Group Financial Controller in a high-growth business, demonstrating strong commercial and financial leadership, ideally within a B2B campaign- and asset-driven environment or related sectors
  • Ability to build scalable finance functions and support professionalisation
  • Hands-on experience with systems implementation, forecasting, and performance reporting
  • Involvement in identifying, evaluating, and integrating acquisitions
  • Confident working in evolving, fast-paced environments with limited existing infrastructure
  • Exceptional communication and leadership skills, able to build trust and influence at all levels of the organisation

Due to the high level of applications, we can only reply to those candidates with relevant experience.
