The Company

As a market leader in their industry, our client has built a strong reputation through an impressive and well-established portfolio of products. Following a recent strategic reorganisation designed to support the next phase of growth, the business is now seeking to appoint a high-calibre Commercial Finance Lead to play a key role in shaping commercial performance and supporting the organisation's long-term ambitions.

This is a forward-thinking organisation where finance sits firmly at the centre of decision-making, and the successful candidate will operate as a senior commercial finance partner to the business. The role offers considerable flexibility, with home-based working and occasional visits to their Midlands office.

The Role

This is a genuinely commercial and strategically focused position where you will partner closely with senior operational and executive stakeholders to provide critical financial insight, challenge thinking and support high-quality decision making. As the senior commercial finance lead within the organisation, you will bring financial rigour to the planning process, challenging forecasts and assumptions to ensure credibility and alignment with the wider strategic objectives of the business.

Working closely with senior leadership and the Board, you will play a central role in identifying opportunities to enhance commercial performance, improve profitability and drive sustainable growth. You will provide clear, data-led insight that enables the business to focus on the most value-enhancing opportunities, while ensuring robust financial governance and accountability across the organisation.

Within an environment where finance is highly regarded and trusted, you will be empowered to influence decisions, shape strategy and provide meaningful direction to the stakeholders you support.

The Person

This is a highly visible role suited to a commercially astute and confident finance professional with proven experience operating within software, SaaS, or digital B2B products businesses. Our client is seeking an ambitious individual who understands the commercial dynamics of technology-led, recurring revenue environments and can partner effectively with senior stakeholders to influence strategic decision making.

You will combine strong analytical capability with the communication skills and credibility to operate effectively at a senior level across the business, bringing insight and challenge to support growth and commercial performance. Comfortable questioning both the numbers and the assumptions behind key decisions, you will provide balanced, objective analysis that drives stronger business outcomes.

The successful candidate will be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA) with a strong academic background and a proven track record within commercially focused finance roles. Experience within high-growth, technology-led environments is essential, alongside a strong understanding of recurring revenue models, SaaS metrics, and the commercial drivers behind digital B2B products including ARR, MRR, churn, retention, CAC and LTV metrics.

You will thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment where your ability to provide insight, influence decision making and constructively challenge senior stakeholders will have a direct impact on the future direction and success of the business.
