Legal Director- Litigation & Credit Enforcement Insolvency Litigation Enforcement Strategy Direct Commercial Ownership in a Lending Business East Midlands 150,000 - 200,000 DOE + Bonus + Benefits including LTIP Commutable from Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, Cambridgeshire, Warwickshire, North Oxfordshire, South East Birmingham, Solihull, Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, North Hertfordshire (with flexibility for the right individual) The Context An established and growing specialist finance business is seeking to appoint a senior legal professional to take ownership of litigation, recoveries and enforcement across a live lending portfolio. The organisation operates in a fast-moving, commercially driven environment where legal decisions directly influence financial outcomes. It is not a business where legal operates at a distance. Instead, it sits at the centre of decision-making, working alongside credit and finance to manage risk, protect asset value and resolve complex lending situations. This appointment represents a key addition to the senior leadership structure, reporting directly to the Chief Operating Officer. The role has been deliberately defined with clarity of focus: to lead litigation, enforcement and recoveries with accountability for outcomes, not simply advice. This opportunity arises at a point where the legal function is central to the next phase of growth, with a clear requirement for stronger ownership of litigation outcomes and recoveries performance. The Role This is a role for a lawyer who is comfortable operating where legal judgement and commercial reality intersect. You will take full ownership of insolvency litigation and dispute resolution across the portfolio, shaping and executing enforcement strategies in relation to borrower defaults, distressed exposures and recovery scenarios. External counsel will be engaged where appropriate, however responsibility for direction, pace and outcome will remain with you. This includes direct involvement in formal insolvency situations, working alongside administrators, receivers and insolvency practitioners to protect position and maximise recovery outcomes. Alongside litigation, you will provide leadership and direction to recoveries and enforcement activity, ensuring that performance is actively managed and continuously improved. You will be expected to bring structure, discipline and commercial clarity to the way enforcement is approached, with a focus on achieving the best possible outcomes in the most efficient manner. This will include managing complex cases where matters progress beyond initial recovery actions into formal insolvency, requiring careful legal and commercial judgement to optimise outcomes. The role requires close engagement with internal stakeholders, particularly credit and finance, contributing directly to decision-making in time-sensitive and often complex situations. You will be expected to form clear views, provide decisive input and take responsibility for the consequences of those decisions. This is not a purely advisory position. It is a role defined by ownership, accountability and delivery. The Individual You are likely to be a Partner, Legal Director or senior disputes lawyer within a regional or national law firm, with a strong grounding in insolvency litigation, restructuring or banking disputes. Alternatively, you may already be operating in-house within a lending, credit or recoveries environment as Head of Legal, Legal Director or Senior Legal Counsel and are seeking a broader and more influential role. Experience of handling formal insolvency processes, including working with administrators, receivers or insolvency practitioners, will be a distinct advantage and of particular interest. You will have developed a reputation for sound judgement, the ability to navigate complex situations and a willingness to take responsibility for outcomes. You are commercially aware, pragmatic in your approach and comfortable operating without the safety net of purely advisory work. You are motivated not only by technical excellence, but by the opportunity to apply that expertise in a way that has direct and visible impact. This role will appeal to individuals who want to move closer to the commercial reality of the situations they are advising on, and who are prepared to take ownership of both decisions and results. The Environment The business is entrepreneurial, fast-paced and outcome-focused. Decisions are made quickly and accountability is clear. There is an expectation that senior individuals will engage directly, contribute meaningfully and operate with a high degree of autonomy. For those coming from private practice, the role offers a shift away from billing targets and time recording, without sacrificing complexity or responsibility. For those already in-house, it offers broader scope, greater ownership and closer proximity to strategic decision-making. The Opportunity This is an opportunity to step into a role where legal expertise is not peripheral but central to the success of the business. You will be responsible for shaping litigation strategy, influencing recoveries performance and contributing directly to commercial outcomes. This role is designed for individuals who wish to move beyond advisory work into a position of direct commercial influence and accountability for outcomes. Over time, there is scope for the role to evolve into a broader legal leadership position for an individual who demonstrates both capability and ambition. The remuneration package reflects the seniority and impact of the role, with a base salary in the range of 150,000 to 200,000, together with bonus and long-term incentive arrangements. Applications Applications and enquiries are invited on a strictly confidential basis. Ref: (phone number removed)

Vacancy Number 5505 Vacancy Title HEAD OF COMMERCIAL & PROJECT DELIVERY Location KENT PLEASE NOTE: CANDIDATE MUST BE LOCATED IN THE SOUTHERN HOME COUNTIES OR WITHIN A SENSIBLE COMMUTING DISTANCE OF CENTRAL KENT. 2 TO 3 DAYS PER WEEK IN THE OFFICE IS THE PREFERRED BASELINE, WITH GREATER FLEXIBILITY ONLY FOR A TRULY EXCEPTIONAL INDIVIDUAL. Job Description Are you ready to take your commercial and project delivery leadership career to the next level by owning project revenues, margin performance and forecasting discipline for one of the UK s most respected names in high security entrance and access control solutions? This is a senior, business critical leadership position within a market leading organisation known for protecting highly sensitive environments across government, critical infrastructure and commercial settings. Sitting at the intersection of sales, delivery, finance and operations, this role exists to ensure that what has been sold commercially is delivered operationally, invoiced on time, and protected from margin erosion through stronger leadership, challenge and control after order intake. That emphasis is far closer to Jon s latest role description than the broader earlier version. Working directly for the Managing Director, you will take ownership of project revenues, gross margin performance and post order delivery control while leading Project Managers and suppliers through a commercially disciplined lens. You will be responsible for improving forecast integrity, tightening change control, driving stronger PM standards and creating clear ownership below MD level, reducing the need for routine escalation and ensuring the business is better positioned to protect EBITDA, margin and delivery performance.

Vacancy Number 5505 Vacancy Title HEAD OF COMMERCIAL & PROJECT DELIVERY Location KENT PLEASE NOTE: CANDIDATE MUST BE LOCATED IN THE SOUTHERN HOME COUNTIES OR WITHIN A SENSIBLE COMMUTING DISTANCE OF CENTRAL KENT. 2 TO 3 DAYS PER WEEK IN THE OFFICE IS THE PREFERRED BASELINE, WITH GREATER FLEXIBILITY ONLY FOR A TRULY EXCEPTIONAL INDIVIDUAL. Job Description Are you ready to take your commercial and project delivery leadership career to the next level by owning project revenues, margin performance and forecasting discipline for one of the UK s most respected names in high security entrance and access control solutions? This is a senior, business critical leadership position within a market leading organisation known for protecting highly sensitive environments across government, critical infrastructure and commercial settings. Sitting at the intersection of sales, delivery, finance and operations, this role exists to ensure that what has been sold commercially is delivered operationally, invoiced on time, and protected from margin erosion through stronger leadership, challenge and control after order intake. That emphasis is far closer to Jon s latest role description than the broader earlier version. Working directly for the Managing Director, you will take ownership of project revenues, gross margin performance and post order delivery control while leading Project Managers and suppliers through a commercially disciplined lens. You will be responsible for improving forecast integrity, tightening change control, driving stronger PM standards and creating clear ownership below MD level, reducing the need for routine escalation and ensuring the business is better positioned to protect EBITDA, margin and delivery performance. This role demands someone who can combine strong construction and project delivery understanding with real commercial ownership, forecasting discipline, leadership authority and the judgement to intervene early when projects drift away from agreed commitments. This is not about finding a super Project Manager. It is about finding someone who can own and drive commercial delivery outcomes through others.

ABOUT THE BUSINESS We are a commercially driven, high-growth business that combines a media organisation, a growth programme for ambitious UK founders and CEOs, and - in the near future - a marketplace. We are tracking 5m in revenue this year and have a clear, credible plan to scale to 70m+ over the next three years. The business is owned and fully funded by Sir Richard Harpin - founder of HomeServe, which he built from a kitchen-table idea into a FTSE-listed home services business before its sale to Brookfield in 2024 for 4.1bn. Sir Richard is now deploying his operating experience and personal capital behind a single, ambitious mission: to double the number of large companies in the UK. This business sits at the heart of that mission, equipping the founders and leadership teams who will build them. Because the business is fully funded by Sir Richard there is no requirement to raise external capital, meaning leadership focus stays on commercial execution, operational discipline, and value creation rather than fundraising cycles. Having established early product-market and a growing commercial pipeline, we are building the leadership infrastructure to deliver the next phase of growth at pace. The CFO is a key partner to the CEO and carries a meaningful growth equity package, providing direct alignment with the long-term value being built. ROLE PURPOSE The CFO will serve as the commercial and financial engine of the business. This is a hands-on, high-impact role for a commercially minded finance leader who has navigated the complexities of scale-up growth-from managing day-to-day financial operations through to board-level strategic reporting. You will be as comfortable completing the month-end close and a 12-week cash forecast as you are presenting financial performance and the strategic plan to the Board and shareholder, or rigorously challenging commercial deal margins with the sales team. We are looking for a professional level of delivery from an experienced, hands-on operator who thrives in ambiguity, moves seamlessly between detail and strategy, and applies strong commercial judgement to every financial decision. KEY RESPONSIBILITIES Strategy & Commercial Planning Commercial Focus Daily Financial Operations & Control Financial Reporting & Control Monthly Reporting Against Budget Annual Budget & Monthly Reforecast Cash Flow Management, Treasury & Forecasting Partner to the CEO on People & Organisation Essential Experience Proven, hands-on CFO or senior finance leadership experience within a UK-based scale-up, with a track record of taking a business from early stage through to 50m+ in revenue. Direct experience reporting to and managing the relationship with a sole shareholder, founder-investor, or institutional investor in a growth-stage business environment. Demonstrable M&A experience, including hands-on involvement in deal origination, financial due diligence, valuation, deal structuring and negotiation across either buy-side or sell-side transactions. Track record of building and maintaining 12-week rolling cash forecasts with high accuracy and clear variance discipline. Commercial finance background with demonstrable experience influencing deal structures, partnership margins, and commercial decision-making. Hands-on operator who has personally owned the monthly close process and management accounts, not solely managed a team to deliver them. Experience of Board-level reporting, including presenting to non-executive directors, investors, or an advisory board. Strong Excel and financial modelling skills; experience with cloud-based accounting systems (Xero, NetSuite, or similar). Highly Desirable Experience working across the full startup-to-scale-up journey - ideally having joined a business at an early stage and scaled it through significant growth. Exposure to commercial partnership models, SaaS, professional services, or similarly margin-sensitive business structures. Experience operating within a membership or subscription business model, with a strong commercial grasp of recurring revenue dynamics - MRR/ARR, retention and churn, lifetime value, and the unit economics of acquisition and renewal. Accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) - though we will consider exceptional candidates who are by experience. Experience of post-merger integration, sell-side readiness, or preparation for exit (vendor due diligence, data room build-out, equity story development).

Direct reporting line to the CEO with a seat at the table for every key strategic decision. A genuine opportunity to shape the financial function from the ground up and build a team around you.
