Commercial Finance Director £125k-£140k + bonus Nottingham Hybrid (2 days in office) This is a Commercial Finance Director role with real strategic influence, sitting at the heart of a highly successful services business You'll own the P&L in full. Shape pricing strategy across the business. Be a trusted advisor to the executive team and board. The kind of role where your financial thinking actually drives decisions. You'll take responsibility for all revenue, costs, margins and profitability. Lead the budgeting and forecasting cycles, identify the financial drivers that matter, and make sure the business has transparent, accessible reporting it can actually use. You'll own pricing strategy - all of it. Policy, tender pricing, alternative pricing models, control of value leakage. Drive margin improvement and embed a real culture of commercial accountability across the teams. You'll manage a team of around ten across FP&A and business partnering, working on a genuinely exciting agenda - a big shift in how the business approaches pricing, real growth plans both organically and through M&A, and plenty to get stuck into. This is a highly successful, financially stable business. Cash generative, with a strong track record and a clear, ambitious plan for what comes next. The kind of platform that gives a Commercial Finance Director real room to make an impact. And the culture? This is a place people actually stay. Genuinely low attrition, real tenure, and a culture that backs it up. Down to earth, collaborative, and the kind of environment where people are set up to succeed. No ivory towers - you'll need to be as comfortable in the detail as you are in the boardroom. In the words of someone already in the business: "The best work-life balance I've ever experienced." What we're looking for: A qualified accountant - ACA, ACCA or CIMA - with significant post-qualification experience leading a sizeable commercial finance function. You'll have owned a P&L, led FP&A and business partnering teams, and know how to make complex financial information land with non-finance audiences up to board level. Equally comfortable in the detail and in the room where the big decisions get made. Someone who challenges the business, not just reports on it. You'll also bring real pricing experience - whether that's owning or shaping pricing strategy, working on tender or contract pricing, or driving margin improvement through pricing discipline. This is central to the role, so comfort with pricing models, value leakage and commercial accountability matters. If you've been involved in M&A activity - whether that's financial due diligence, integration work, or modelling acquisitions - that's a real bonus here given the growth agenda ahead. Experience from a services, technology, professional services or financial services background. The package: £125k-£140k base, achievable bonus, 43 days holiday, 35-hour week, private medical and more. Based in Nottingham, hybrid. Interested? Drop me a message.
