Group Finance Director - Corporate Functions
This is a senior finance leadership role sitting close to the Group CFO, with responsibility for how financial performance is managed across corporate functions (HR, IT, Legal, etc.).
The position combines two key areas:
* Business partnering to senior functional leaders
* Improving how finance operates at a group level
You'll be expected to bring structure, challenge, and clarity - not just reporting.
What you'll focus on
* Lead planning cycles (budget, forecast, long-range planning) across group functions
* Partner with senior stakeholders on cost, investment, and performance
* Provide clear financial insight to support decision-making
* Identify and drive cost efficiency opportunities
* Improve consistency and quality of financial reporting
* Drive improvements in finance processes (planning, reporting, P2P, etc.)
* Support wider transformation and systems initiatives
* Build a more scalable, efficient finance operating model
What they're looking for
* Senior finance experience in group, FP&A, or commercial finance roles
* Strong stakeholder engagement - able to influence at exec level
* Experience working across complex or multi-entity environments
* Exposure to process improvement, transformation, or systems change
* A balance of hands‐on delivery and strategic thinking
Why it's worth considering
* High visibility role with direct exposure to senior leadership
* Broad scope across both performance and transformation
* Opportunity to shape how finance operates across the group
The bottom line
This isn't a pure reporting role, and it's not a narrow transformation position either.
It's suited to someone who can partner, challenge, and improve how finance supports the business - all in one role.
