Overview

Pearse Professionals are working with a high-growth, private equity-backed technology business that’s entering a critical phase of its journey – and they’re in need of an exceptional Interim CFO to help steer the next stage of the transformation.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you’ll partner closely with the CEO and wider leadership team to scale the business, professionalise internal processes, and ensure the finance function is fit for purpose as the company continues its rapid trajectory.

Role & Responsibilities

  • Own and lead the finance function, ensuring strong financial controls, robust reporting, and forward-looking forecasting

  • Develop and implement scalable systems and processes to support growth, including budgeting, cash flow management, and KPIs

  • Partner with PE investors to provide insight and strategic guidance

  • Work cross-functionally to improve operational efficiency and financial discipline across the business

  • Build and upskill the existing finance team to meet the demands of a maturing, PE-backed environment

Requirements

  • Proven experience as an CFO within a high-growth, PE-backed business

  • Track record of scaling businesses and building finance functions from the ground up

  • Strong technical finance capability, but equally commercial and strategic

  • Gravitas to influence C-suite and investors, but hands-on enough to roll up sleeves when needed

  • Experience with exits is advantageous
