Senior Manager, CFO Advisory & Finance Transformation

Senior Manager, London

Salary up to £100K

I'm working with an award winning, international consultancy, who are looking to build the leadership team of their growing finance strategy practice. They have a world renowned culture, and have really impressive opportunities for progression, development and proposition leadership.

The team:

The team partner with leading private sector organisations, to create and execute sustainable transformation initiatives across their businesses. They work across insurance, retail, banking, utilities, pharma and life sciences, and transport businesses to deliver long lasting change.

Their work is hugely varied, from finance transformation, operating model & organisation design, process improvement, and technology implementation, to strategic advisory, cost transformation & financial modelling.

The role:

This is an opportunity to take a leading role in a growing capability - you would report directly to the head of the practice and serve as their number 2.

Candidates will have had experience leading the scoping and delivery of CFO advisory and finance transformation initiatives in some of:

• Banks
• Insurers
• Energy & utilities
• Pharma & life sciences
• Transport & logistics
• Healthcare

The role will cover these key areas:

• Complex strategy & transformation leadership - engage with C-suite execs and MDs of clients to understand their problem and shape and ultimately deliver complex strategic and transformational solutions.
• Practice development - practice leadership and team management, but also "capability strategy". My client wants to build a best-in-class practice, so your role is to define and deliver on what skills they need to bring in to realise that ambition.
• Existing client strategy - my client has done some really interesting work to date with HSBC, Barclays, Astra Zeneca, HMRC and Williams F1, to name a few, but they'd like to do more with these firms. Who do they need to speak to? What propositions do they need to mature? Where else can they support?
• New client strategy - the addressable market for CFO advisory is absolutely massive, so where to start? Your role is to define and execute a strategy to go after the low-hanging fruit, design market leading propositions, and engage with the key clients in the market.

The logistics:

My client offers a base salary up to £100,000 , dependent on experience, with really exciting bonus and benefits on top. This role can be based in London, or regionally. If this ticks the boxes for you please apply.
