Associate Director at Baker Charles - Accounting and Finance Recruiter for Commerce and Industry
Head of Finance – 12-Month FTC
International Hospitality Group; Central London
A well-known, listed international hospitality business is looking to appoint a Head of Finance on a 12-month fixed-term contract to cover a period of maternity leave. Based in Central London, this is a key leadership role within the Central Finance function and offers the opportunity to join a high-profile global brand.
Reporting directly to the Finance Director, the Head of Finance will lead a team responsible for a broad range of areas, including the head office and Group companies, as well as capital expenditure and cash flow management. The successful candidate will play a critical role in providing financial oversight, strategic insight, and operational support to ensure the finance team delivers high-quality reporting and analysis throughout the contract period.
Key responsibilities include managing the team and overseeing their day-to-day activities, ensuring timely and accurate cash flow forecasting and reporting across weekly, monthly, and quarterly cycles. The role will also involve payroll forecasting and analysis, leading the budgeting and forecasting processes, and working closely with the business to model financial impacts, review contracts, and ensure appropriate accounting treatment for revenue and costs.
The Head of Finance will also have oversight of global capital expenditure reporting and forecasting and will play a key role in supporting the delivery of a successful year-end audit for the Central Finance team.
This role would suit a fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, or CIMA) with strong technical skills, excellent commercial awareness, and a proven track record in leading and developing teams. You will be a confident communicator and business partner, comfortable interacting across all levels of the organisation. Strong analytical ability, a hands-on approach, and a solutions-focused mindset will be essential, as will a high level of attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities effectively.
This is an excellent opportunity for a talented finance professional to step into a visible and rewarding leadership role within a dynamic and well-regarded business.
