Finance Director Jobs and CFO Jobs board

Finance roles and how we fill them

Every role below is a live mandate. We do not advertise positions we are not working on, and we do not post speculative adverts to collect CVs — if a role is listed here, a client has engaged us to fill it and someone on our team is actively running the search.

Most of what we handle sits at finance director, CFO and financial controller level, across fractional, interim and permanent engagements. A growing share is with FCA-authorised firms, where the brief usually involves a senior manager function alongside the finance role.

Finance leadership jobs: what to expect

Our mandates cluster into a few recognisable shapes. Fractional CFO and FD roles, typically one to three days a week with founder-led or private equity backed businesses that need senior finance thinking but not a full-time salary. Interim cover, where something has happened — a resignation, a transaction, a maternity leave, a turnaround — and the business needs an experienced pair of hands at short notice. Permanent finance director and CFO searches for companies ready to commit to the role properly.

Fractional and interim work is a career, not a stopgap. A good number of the people we place have deliberately built portfolios of two or three part-time finance roles, and much prefer it to a single full-time job. If that is new territory for you, we can talk you through how the day rates, contracts and practicalities actually work.

We are also honest about money. If a client’s budget is below what you are worth, we will say so rather than putting you through three rounds of interviews to find out. Equally, if your expectations are above what the market is paying for that profile, you will hear that too.

Join our network of fractional and interim finance professionals

A fair proportion of our placements never appear on this page at all. Fractional and interim mandates move quickly — a client calls on Tuesday needing someone by the following Monday, and the role is filled from people we already know before an advert would have earned its keep. Being on our books means you are in the conversation when that happens.

Registering once covers the whole group. Our sister brands share the same candidate network: Exec Capital for wider C-suite and board roles, NED Capital for non-executive appointments, Accountancy Capital for qualified finance below director level, and SMF Capital for FCA senior manager functions.
