A privately owned, entrepreneurial group with interests across property, hospitality and support services is looking for a part-time Finance Director to provide independent financial leadership at Board level. Day-to-day accounting is outsourced, so this role is about strategy, commercial challenge and governance, and about making sure the outsourced finance function delivers.
The role:
- Sit on the Board as principal financial adviser to the directors and shareholders
- Oversee management accounts, KPI reporting, budgeting, forecasting and cash flow across a multi-entity group
- Own statutory and consolidated accounts and lead the annual audit
- Manage banking and lender relationships, covenants and funding options
- Oversee tax, regulatory and governance compliance, and maintain strong internal controls and risk management
- Evaluate investments, acquisitions, disposals and capital projects
- Support the commercial performance of the group's property, hospitality and service businesses
- Set standards for, and hold to account, the outsourced finance team
About you:
- Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA) with previous Finance Director or senior finance leadership experience
- Experience in owner-managed businesses, SMEs or entrepreneurial groups
- Strong technical knowledge (IFRS / Tax etc.)
- Experience managing banking relationships and funding arrangements
- Skilled in cash flow management, forecasting and business planning
- A credible, commercially astute Board-level adviser who can challenge constructively
- Able to work independently in a part-time, remote role
Experience in property, hospitality would be a huge advantage, and experience managing outsourced finance functions would also be useful.
The salary banding advertised is a guideline, the remuneration offered will be commensurate upon experience.
