Finance Transformation Director

Are you a finance transformation leader who looks beyond traditional offshoring and simple headcount reduction?

Do not pass up this chance, apply quickly if your experience and skills match what is in the following description.

We are exclusively working with our client to secure a visionary, delivery-focused Finance Transformation Director for a leading, highly regulated FTSE-listed services group.

Reporting directly to the Group Finance Director, this is a high-profile mandate to shift a 300-strong finance function away from tactical cost-cutting and drive fundamental, technology-enabled process reinvention.

The Strategic Mission:

• End-to-End Process Reinvention: Move past traditional, purely outsourced "lift and shift" models. You will challenge whether specific tasks should be performed at all, and identify the most modern, digitally enabled ways of delivering those that remain.
• Agentification and AI: Redesign horizontal process ownership, leveraging intelligent automation, machine learning, and autonomous agentic workflows to eliminate manual activities and build a high-value onshore Centre of Excellence.
• Sweating the Systems Assets: Maximise value from a newly live, large-scale enterprise ERP platform to resolve a lack of standard management reporting and establish robust, clean data flows.
• Financial Impact: Drive a cost reduction within the group finance function, equivalent to a target of approximately £xx million, directly supporting the broader corporate long-term vision.

The Ideal Profile:

• A pragmatic leader with transformation experience in a complex, FTSE-scale, or highly regulated corporate environment.
• A proven track record of taking an organisation from low systems and data maturity to high capability, as experience in highly mature, digitally clean environments is less relevant here.
• A decisive professional who is comfortable holding challenging conversations and driving pace while maintaining psychological safety.

Flexible Engagement Models: To secure the right catalyst, our client is highly flexible regarding the contract structure:

1. Fixed-Term Contract: 12 months. £170,00 £190,000 per annum base salary + bonus + benefits.
2. Day-Rate Interim: Inside IR35. Rate open to discussion. xwzovoh

Location: Home Counties & Central London based (flexible hybrid working).

If you are a collaborative, credible leader who brings positive energy and knows how to turn a qualitative vision into a sequenced, horizontal roadmap, we want to hear from you.
