Head of Finance

Are you a qualified finance leader ready to bring strategic clarity to a growing group of businesses? Could your next role give you genuine influence at board level — with the autonomy to build something that lasts?

Group Head of Finance | Norwich | £Excellent

We're proud to be working with an established, multi-entity business group based in Norwich, with a combined turnover of just over £20 million across multiple companies. This is a newly-created senior appointment — a real opportunity to step in, shape the finance function, and leave your mark.

Reporting directly to the CEO, you'll have full responsibility for financial leadership across the group. That means consolidated and statutory accounts, management reporting, budgeting and forecasting, cash flow, compliance, and risk — but also something more interesting: the chance to rationalise and develop a finance team spread across the group's entities, and potentially recruit into it. If you enjoy building as much as running, this will suit you well.

The group operates across Sage 200 and Xero, and there's a genuine openness to reviewing systems — so if you've got views on how finance tech can drive efficiency, they'll be heard.

What my client is looking for:

You'll be ACA or ACCA qualified (CIMA considered for an outstanding candidate), with a solid background in multi-entity or group finance. You'll be equally comfortable producing a set of consolidated accounts and presenting commercial insight to a leadership team. Strong people leadership matters here — there's a team to develop and a culture of accountability to embed.

You'll also need to be someone who takes integrity seriously, communicates clearly upward and downward, and thrives when given genuine ownership.
