A rare opportunity to lead one of Britain's most significant historic estates - Hestercombe Garden Trust Hestercombe is one of the South West's most significant historic landscapes, combining nationally important gardens, heritage buildings, and a vibrant programme of cultural and community activity. Set within a unique valley landscape, the estate brings together over 300 years of garden design, including the celebrated collaboration between Sir Edwin Lutyens and Gertrude Jekyll, alongside earlier Georgian and later Victorian influences. Today, Hestercombe operates as an independent charitable trust with a mission to conserve, restore and share this remarkable place for public benefit. In February 2024, Hestercombe was awarded Full National Museum Accreditation, recognising the quality and importance of its collections, interpretation, and public offer. The estate welcomes tens of thousands of visitors each year and offers a diverse programme spanning horticulture, arts and culture, learning, and wellbeing. From formal gardens and woodland walks to exhibitions, events and seasonal programming, Hestercombe provides an accessible and inspiring environment for a wide and growing audience. While the organisation is currently navigating a period of formal Administration, this next phase marks a turning point rather than a conclusion. Significant progress has been made to stabilise the Trust's position, and we are now moving toward an exit from administration with a renewed sense of purpose. With a dedicated staff team, a loyal volunteer base, and strong community roots, the foundation for recovery is firmly in place.

The CEO will champion Hestercombe's artistic, horticultural, historic and ecological importance while strengthening commercial performance and visitor experience. They will have a deep affinity with heritage, culture and landscape. Due to a number of operational challenges and financial pressures, the Trustees appointed Joint Administrators from Forvis Mazars LLP on 1 August 2025 to protect the estate and stabilise operations. With fantastic support and hard work from the existing management team, staff and an army of volunteers, the Estate has successful continued trading under the supervision of the Administrators, who have been working with key stakeholders and benefactors to formulate a rescue and funding plan and secure a long term sustainable future of the Estate. It is intended that Hestercombe Gardens Trust will exit Administration within the next 6 months and return to the control of the Trustees, a newly appointed CEO and management team.

This is a Finance Director role for someone who enjoys getting close to how a business really makes money. The business operates in a construction (contracts-led) environment, where performance is not judged by revenue alone. It is judged by margin discipline, cash conversion, contract control, operational grip and the quality of the numbers behind every decision. Growth has created opportunity. It has also created the need for sharper financial leadership as the business has become more complex. You'll be stepping into a business with ambition, momentum and enough moving parts to make this a proper FD seat, not a reporting role with a grander title. You'll work closely with a high-energy leadership team, bringing rigour, commercial challenge and financial clarity to the next stage of growth. Not as the person who says "no" for sport, but as the person who can see round corners, challenge optimistic assumptions and make sure operational ambition turns into profitable performance. If you have worked in private equity, that would be useful. Not because this is a textbook PE role, but because PE experience often develops the right instincts: pace, transparency over the numbers, focus on value creation, sharper reporting, cash discipline and an intolerance of vague commercial performance. You'll be expected to improve the finance function so it supports the scale and complexity of the business properly. Better MI. Stronger forecasting. Tighter controls. Cleaner reporting. More useful insight. Better conversations around contracts, margins, working capital and risk. What you'll bring You're likely to be a qualified accountant with experience as a Finance Director, Divisional FD or senior finance leader in a scaling, operationally complex business. A background in construction, infrastructure, engineering, facilities or another contracts-led environment would be highly relevant. You'll be commercially sharp, operationally engaged and credible with senior stakeholders. You'll know how to balance pace with control. You'll be close enough to the detail to know what is really happening, but senior enough to turn that insight into better decisions. You'll also have the leadership ability to strengthen a finance team, raise standards and bring people with you. What's in it for you? A genuine opportunity to move into a high-impact Finance Director role where the work matters. A business with momentum, ambition and complexity, keeping the day job lively. A leadership team that needs Finance to be more than reporting. The appetite from the business is already there. A role where you can influence performance, shape the Finance function and leave a visible mark. Package includes: £140,000 - £160,000 base salary Car allowance Pension 40% bonus Equity incentive Hybrid working If you meet the brief and would like to be considered, don't delay in submitting your cv. Selection is currently underway with the process concluding late next month.
