Job Description:
A globally scaling, technology led organisation is entering a critical phase of its evolution, transitioning from a high-growth environment into a commercially disciplined, internationally scaled business with public market accountability.
The CFO will be instrumental in shaping this transition, operating as a strategic partner to the CEO, whilst building a world class finance function. This role requires a leader who can balance capital markets credibility, operational rigour, and forward looking strategic insight in a complex, fast paced environment.
Key Responsibilities
*Lead all aspects of public company compliance, including oversight of regulatory filings, disclosure controls, and financial reporting cycles in line with international standards.
*Own the end-to-end investor relations strategy, including earnings preparation, guidance frameworks, and market communications.
*Develop a compelling and data driven equity narrative, articulating the company’s transition from high-growth investment phase to scalable profitability.
*Design and implement a scalable global finance operating model across multiple jurisdictions, ensuring alignment with local statutory, tax, and regulatory requirements.
*Establish and continuously improve financial control frameworks, including internal controls (e.g., SOX readiness where applicable), audit processes, and risk mitigation structures.
*Define and execute a disciplined capital allocation framework, balancing investment in technology, infrastructure, and geographic expansion with return thresholds.
*Lead all aspects of M&A activity, including target identification, due diligence, valuation, deal structuring, and post-merger integration.
*Structure and negotiate strategic partnerships, joint ventures, and alternative financing arrangements to accelerate growth.
Candidate Profile
*Proven experience as a CFO (or divisional CFO) within a high-growth, international business, ideally with exposure to public markets environments.
*Deep expertise in capital markets, investor relations, and financial governance in a listed or listing-ready company.
*Strong technical grounding in financial reporting, controls, and regulatory compliance.
*Demonstrated success in scaling finance functions within complex, multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction organisations.
*High intellectual agility, resilience, and the ability to operate effectively in fast-paced, ambiguous settings.
This is a rare opportunity to shape the financial and strategic trajectory of a business at a defining moment in its lifecycle. The CFO will have a direct impact on value creation, market positioning, and long-term success, working alongside an ambitious leadership team.
