Camino Search is glad to be partnering fast-growing, private equity-backed services organization entering a transformative phase of growth. With strong financial backing and a clear strategic mandate, the business is executing an ambitious buy-and-build strategy to consolidate a fragmented sector and create a market-leading platform.
The Opportunity:
As CFO, you will be a key strategic partner to the CEO and Board, leading all financial, and operational aspects of the business. You will play a critical role in driving value creation across both organic growth and M&A, ensuring the finance function scales in lockstep with the group's expansion.
Key Responsibilities:
- Act as a strategic partner to the CEO and investors, contributing to overall business strategy and value creation.
- Lead financial planning, budgeting, forecasting, and performance management.
- Build a scalable finance function, including reporting, controls, systems, and team development.
- Oversee execution and integration of acquisitions, including due diligence, valuation, and post-merger integration.
- Own relationships with investors, banks, auditors, and external advisors.
- Implement best-in-class KPIs, dashboards, and operational finance tools to support decision-making.
- Support potential future exit strategy and equity events (refinancing, recap, or sale).
Profile:
- Proven CFO (or experienced Finance Director stepping up) with Private Equity experience.
- Strong track record in services businesses, ideally with exposure service-based models.
- Demonstrated success in buy-and-build or M&A-intensive environments.
- Hands-on, low-ego leader with a commercial mindset and strong operational instincts.
- Experience professionalizing a finance function in a scaling environment.
- Excellent communication skills and stakeholder management experience, including Board and investor relations.
