Role Description
We’re proud to work with a growing roster of national and global brands, and with billings set to exceed £10M this financial year, we’re scaling fast.
Workflow discipline sits at the heart of how we operate, and it’s something we genuinely care about.
Now we’re looking for a Finance Director to bring that same rigour, expertise and stewardship to our finances at board level.
You’ll own the financial strategy, controls and commercial performance of the agency, working directly with our leadership team.
What That Looks Like Day To Day
Full ownership of financial planning, reporting and cash flow, tightening the commercial engine behind our media trading discipline, and giving the board the clarity to make the right decisions quickly.
You’ll shape how we invest as we grow, not just track it.
We’re looking for someone who’s operated at this level before, ideally in media, agency or a fast-scaling services business.
Someone who cares about the detail but never loses sight of the bigger picture.
Someone who wants to build, not just maintain.
In return, you’ll get a seat at the table from day one, a business in genuine growth mode, and a team that takes the work seriously without taking themselves too seriously.
If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.
