Job Description
We're rebuilding the finance function of a multi-location food-service business from the ground up, and we need a finance executive who wants to lead that transformation personally — not just report on it.
You'll take over the finance function, protect the essentials (cash, payroll, compliance), and turn finance into a real-time engine for decisions across the business. Once things are stable and running well, you'll have the option to stay embedded, build a successor, or expand into wider work across our portfolio.
What You'll Own
Lead the complete finance function through a hands-on transition
Build accurate, controlled financial reporting and protect cash and payroll
Own budgets, rolling forecasts, and cash planning
Make profitability visible by location, brand, channel, and product
Evaluate pricing, promotions, and investment decisions with real business cases
Redesign the finance team's structure, systems, and controls — and eventually build your own successor
Requirements
What We're Looking For
Significant senior finance leadership experience, ideally at CFO level
A track record improving profitability, forecasting, and cash management
Strong commercial instincts — pricing, unit economics, investment analysis
Advanced, hands-on use of AI and modern finance tools
Professional finance/accounting qualification strongly preferred
Bonus Points
Experience inside a complex, multi-location hospitality, retail, or restaurant business
Client-facing advisory or consulting experience
History of challenging executives with hard evidence, not just opinions
You'll Thrive Here If You...
See finance as a decision-making tool, not just a compliance function
Want to build something from a messy starting point rather than maintain a clean system
Like the idea of eventually training your own replacement and moving on to bigger things
