Apointe is supporting a Private Equity backed, dynamic group business with revenues of £600m+ in the search for an experienced Interim CFO. This is a pivotal role during a period of transition, providing strategic oversight and operational clarity while the long-term finance leadership structure is reviewed.
You’ll be tasked with taking stock of the existing finance setup, identifying what’s working, what’s not, and where change is required. From leading year-end to streamlining financial processes across SAP, this role offers a real opportunity to shape the financial strategy of a complex group business.
Key responsibilities:
Lead the year-end process, ensuring a smooth and accurate close
Conduct a full review of the current finance team structure, identifying gaps, inefficiencies, and opportunities for improvement
Own and oversee consolidated group reporting and financial performance reviews
Deliver process improvement across financial controls and reporting accuracy
Evaluate service levels across finance functions and make recommendations
Lead on group-wide SAP improvements and optimisation
Act as a trusted advisor to the Exec team, contributing to strategic decisions and operational changes
Provide commercial insight on recurring pinch points and potential structural issues
What we’re looking for:
Proven track record as a CFO or FD in large, complex group environments
Strong experience in year-end, consolidation, and financial control leadership
Expertise in SAP and confidence working across business units to improve processes
Ability to diagnose organisational challenges and implement effective solutions
Pragmatic, commercial, and highly credible with senior stakeholders
Hands-on where required but strategic in approach
Available to start at short notice and comfortable with ambiguity
This is a rare chance to influence a high-growth group at a senior level, without the long-term commitment of a permanent post.
