FD Capital is working with a growing residential property management business in South West London that wants to appoint a Fractional Finance Director for about one day a week. The company manages a large portfolio of residential rooms for landlords, letting and running the properties on their behalf. It has a small, hands-on office team and founders who want stronger financial control and clearer visibility of performance as the business grows.

This is a hands-on role for a commercially minded finance leader who can give the founders an accurate picture of cash, costs and profitability now, and build the forecasting, reporting and planning disciplines the business needs to grow profitably. You’ll work closely with the founders as a trusted adviser. You’ll own the cash position, tighten cost control, and turn the numbers into decisions they can act on.

The commitment is about one day a week, or an agreed number of days a month, on fixed days that suit both sides. The day can be split into half days if that works better. You can work on-site at the company’s London office, remotely, or a mix of both. The engagement runs on a rolling basis and is expected to be long term for the right person.
