Chief Financial Officer (CFO)

An exceptional opportunity has arisen for an experienced and commercially driven Chief Financial Officer to join a privately backed industrial business with a turnover of approximately £60m and ambitious long-term growth plans.

Operating across multiple divisions, the business has built an impressive reputation within its sector through operational excellence, strong leadership, and continued investment across the organisation. With further growth, diversification, and strategic expansion firmly on the agenda, the appointment of a high-calibre CFO is viewed as a critical hire for the future of the business.

Leading a finance team of 12, the successful individual will provide both strategic and operational financial leadership across the organisation. This is a hands-on role requiring a finance leader capable of operating at board level whilst remaining closely connected to the day-to-day realities of a fast-moving industrial environment.

You will play a key role in driving financial performance, strengthening controls and reporting, supporting commercial decision-making, and helping shape the wider strategic direction of the business. Equally important will be your ability to inspire, develop, and challenge both the finance function and wider leadership teams.

The business is seeking a forward-thinking individual with experience gained within industrial, manufacturing, engineering, construction, logistics, or multi-site operational environments. Experience within a growing SME or privately backed business would be highly advantageous.

This is a rare opportunity to become part of a highly respected leadership team within a business entering a significant phase of evolution and growth. The successful candidate will have the platform, autonomy, and influence to make a lasting impact across the organisation and play a central role in shaping its future direction.
