Role OverviewThe Group Chief Financial Officer will be responsible for building the sum-of-the-parts valuation framework across every business unit, with a defensible methodology and comparables set for each. They will also structure each entity so that it maximises its own multiple, and structure the group so the whole is worth more than the parts.
What You Will Do
The Group Chief Financial Officer will take the group from founder-run reporting to institutional-grade financials that survive a quality-of-earnings review and a full due diligence process. They will also take the group to market early and convert what buyers and advisers tell us into operational change while there is still time to act on it.
