61 Days Old

Job title: Finance Director

Location: Derbyshire

Salary: £95,000 – £110,000 (DOE) Hybrid Working

Are you a strategic finance leader with a passion for building structure, driving transformation, and shaping a business during a period of rapid expansion?

We’re supporting a fast‑growing organisation in Derbyshire that is undergoing significant change and now requires a commercially minded Finance Director to take full ownership of the finance function. This is a rare opportunity to join a business at a pivotal moment, moving from an entrepreneurial SME environment into a more robust, scalable, corporate structure.

The Opportunity

The business has grown at pace and with major growth has come further complexity: fragmented systems, legacy processes, and the need for strong, influential finance leadership.

As the Finance Director, you will be taking the operational reins for finance and driving transformation across reporting, forecasting, compliance, controls, and team development.

This is your chance to take an SME‑built finance function and lead it into its next phase taking ownership of a growing finance function and helping to shape it into a more structured, corporate setup as the business continues to scale.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the full finance function and oversee a growing multi‑disciplinary team
Transform existing SME processes into scalable, best‑practice financial operations
Strengthen internal controls, data accuracy, and financial governance
Lead budgeting, forecasting, long‑term financial planning and cash flow strategy
Improve systems, implement automation, and enhance MI
Partner with senior leadership and investors on strategic decision-making
Prepare finance for future investment cycles and evolving reporting requirements
Mentor and develop future finance leaders within the team

What We’re Looking For

ACA/ACCA/CIMA qualified with significant senior leadership experience
Proven track record improving processes in a fast‑growth or transformational environment
Strong commercial awareness and ability to influence at board level
Experience scaling finance functions from SME foundations
Hands‑on mindset combined with strategic thinking and team leadership
Confident navigating change, complexity, and evolving investor expectations

Why This Role Stands Out

Shape the finance function of a rapidly expanding organisation
Hybrid working available
Salary and package are reflective of the impact and scope of the role
Join at the perfect moment to influence future investment, systems, and structure

If you're a forward‑thinking Finance Director, Group Financial Controller or senior Finance Manager ready to lead change, and elevate a growing organisation to its next level, we'd love to speak with you.
