In a subscription-based business, cash flow and working capital are critical. This isn't just about understanding numbers-it's about uncovering the 'why' behind them. Think...Why are trade debtors increasing, and what's the solution?

You'll be at the forefront of high-level discussions, working with the CFO, CEO, board members, and private equity sponsors. The focus will be on cash flow, debt, and working capital-delivering actionable insights, not just spreadsheets.

This is about taking analysis and turning it into a compelling story. It's strategic financial modelling without needing to be an Excel wizard-more about interpreting the data, understanding the outputs, and influencing key decisions.

Key Responsibilities

• Maintain and update the financial model for balance sheet and cash flow forecasting, integrating re-forecast cycles.
• Deliver monthly net working capital and cash flow analysis, developing and monitoring key performance indicators.
• Identify risks related to liquidity and inefficiencies in working capital, proposing and implementing improvement plans.
• Recommend and lead process improvements to optimise working capital.

About You

• A qualified accountant with expertise in cash flow modelling, working capital, and debt management.
• Commercial Finance or FP&A background, with a strong grasp of capital management and net working capital.
• Experience working with boards, investors, or sponsors, presenting insightful narratives that shape strategy.
• Adept at turning analysis into actionable recommendations-building the story behind the numbers.
• Comfortable with high-level exposure and discussions, with no P&L responsibility required.

What's In It for You?

• Direct access to the CFO, CEO, and board, giving you high-level influence and visibility.
• The chance to collaborate on financing initiatives and work closely with private equity sponsors and major lenders.
