Finance Director/CFO (Family Office)

This is an exciting opportunity to work alongside an incredibly successful and smart individual on a daily basis across a diverse portfolio that includes VC/private equity, fixed income, and real estate. He is an incredibly entrepreneurial individual who will consider any asset class on a case by case basis.

It is not a typical finance role that will have you sitting behind spreadsheets all day. Supported by a strong team you will have full operational control over the portfolio. You will often be out of the office visiting various companies/employees/assets and ensuring that everything is operating smoothly.

You will be part of the senior management team and need a broad set of accounting skills including corporate accounting, budgeting, and forecasting. You will also have the opportunity to work on more exciting and commercial tasks such as investment due-diligence and execution. There will also be specific responsibilities to a Family Office that can be administrative in nature such as dealing with trustees and ad-hoc tasks.

You must have the attitude that no task is too small. Being a member of the senior management team you will need to be incredibly commercial as you will be involved in many high-level decision-making processes whether that be investment or operationally focused.

It’s a very intellectually demanding and stimulating environment but will provide unique challenges and exposure. You will need a strong academic background and ideally, you will have Family Office or Asset Management experience although all sectors will be considered.

Requirements

• Strong academic profile (2.1 degree or above)
• Qualified Accountant (ACA/ACCA/CIMA)
• Confident and show initiative
• Mature and personable individual
• Broad finance background
• Ideally family office experience
