We are partnering with a high-growth, B2B SaaS business backed by leading growth equity investors, now looking to appoint its first Chief Financial Officer.
With ARR currently sub-£5m and a highly scalable, low ACV, high-volume customer model, the business is entering a critical phase of its journey—focused on scaling organically to £20m+ ARR and delivering a successful exit.
Already operating across multiple jurisdictions with a global customer base, this is a rare opportunity to build and lead the finance function from the ground up in a fast-moving, data-driven environment.
The Role
Reporting directly to the CEO and working closely with investors, the CFO will play a central role in driving financial strategy, operational rigour, and commercial insight.
This is a hands-on, build-oriented role with one direct report, requiring a leader who is comfortable operating at both strategic and operational levels.
Key responsibilities include:
- Building and scaling the finance function, processes, and infrastructure
- Ownership of budgeting, forecasting, cash flow, and financial modelling
- Developing robust SaaS metrics and reporting (ARR, MRR, churn, CAC, LTV)
- Driving data-led decision making across the business
- Supporting international scaling, including multi-jurisdictional compliance
- Partnering with the CEO on growth strategy, pricing, and unit economics
- Preparing the business for future fundraising and exit processes
- Acting as a key interface with investors and the Board
Candidate Profile

- Track record of building or scaling finance functions in early-stage or growth businesses
- Comfortable working in a lean environment with limited resources
