Marks Sattin Executive Search is working with a dynamic, PE-backed construction services business based in North London in search for an ambitious CFO. This individual will be instrumental in preparing the business for a successful sale, while also shaping the strategic direction to ensure sustainable growth and value creation beyond the exit.

As CFO, you will assume full responsibility for the finance function, implementing the systems, processes, and controls necessary to propel the business into its next phase of growth. Working alongside the CEO, you will develop, execute, and evaluate the business's overarching strategy. Furthermore, you will serve as a key contributor to executive-level decision-making by delivering incisive performance analysis, rigorous forecasting, and insightful reporting.

The ideal candidate will be adept at establishing comprehensive systems, controls, KPIs, and dashboards, while ensuring the timely and accurate preparation of board packs to support the business's strategic ambitions.

In addition to looking for an experienced CFO, this client would uniquely consider candidates making their first move into an autonomous PE-backed CFO role, such as Divisional Finance Directors, Heads of Finance, or Financial Controllers.

Please note that due to the high volume of applicants only successful candidates will be contacted with further information about this role.

To help us assess your professional background and achievements, along with your application please include the nature of the business as well as the turnover and EBITDA . Additionally, please provide information on the size and scope of transactions you have facilitated in your capacity as CFO.

Marks Sattin Executive Search is part of a leading specialist financial recruitment business. Our team exclusively recruits CFO's and FD's into businesses across a wide range of sectors, mostly focused on change (including exit and growth). We continue to expand our network; providing finance professionals for PE backed privately owned and listed businesses.
