Marks Sattin Executive Search is working with a dynamic PE Backed Tech Enabled business that is poised for significant growth. The business is seeking an ambitious and strategic CFO to work closely with the CEO and senior leadership team, contributing at the board level to steer the business through its next phase of expansion and position it for a successful exit.

In this critical role, the CFO will be responsible for leading the finance function, with a particular focus on driving operational efficiency and improving financial performance. A key part of this will be enhancing margins by streamlining operations, optimising cost structures, and identifying opportunities for improved profitability across the business. You will also play a vital role in providing detailed performance analysis to support strategic decision-making.

Beyond the financial and operational oversight, the CFO will be instrumental in driving the commercial strategy of the business. This will involve identifying new revenue streams, expanding into new markets, and strengthening the business's market position. Additionally, you will be responsible for nurturing strong relationships with the PE firm, ensuring alignment with long-term growth objectives, and continuously improving financial processes and systems to support the business's evolving needs.

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.

The ideal candidate:

  • A qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, ACMA), preferably chartered
  • Proven track record within a business in the Tech enabled or SaaS sectors.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build strong relationships
  • A highly motivated individual, that is willing to be actively engaged at all organisational levels.
  • Able to work with the executive team, the board, and the PE firm to drive the strategic direction of the business, identifying growth opportunities.
  • Experience of bringing a finance function in house would be desirable but not essential

This client will uniquely consider candidates stepping into their first autonomous PE-backed CFO role, such as Divisional Finance Directors, Heads of Finance, or Financial Controllers.

Please understand that due to the expected high number of applications, only shortlisted candidates will be contacted directly.

For application and accessibility support, please contact your local Marks Sattin office. We're committed to protecting the privacy of all our candidates and clients, please visit https://www.markssattin.co.uk/privacy for our privacy policy.
