We are looking to hire a highly intelligent, confident and enthusiastic CFO to work for an UHNW but discreet family. Working directly with the impressive and highly successful principals  you will manage every area of finance for their family including:

• All finance processes – implement and oversee

It’s a new role, so masses of scope to make it your own with huge potential.

Apart from being super-numerate and able to process figures at the speed of light, with an exceptional eye for detail, you will also need to be emotionally intelligent to fit in with the family, and have a flexible, upbeat personality - a self-starter, who is collaborative and enjoys being part of a small team. You will be expected to keep the principals up-to-date.

An accountancy qualification or relevant finance experience is essential.

But, it could suit:

• A CFO/ Chief of Staff who is currently working for a private family or a Private Family Office

• A CFO or Chief of Staff with small company or start-up experience

• An accountant wanting to move from corporate to a private family

• An ambitious graduate with accounting who loves budgets/analysis but wants a varied role

It’s an extraordinary opportunity offering variety and scope with a very supportive family.
