We are partnering with a growing and evolving product and services organisation with revenues of approximately $50 million. Following a significant growth phase over the past five years, the business is entering its next stage of maturity and is seeking an experienced Finance Director/CFO to provide commercial leadership, financial rigour and operational discipline.
