Radley Green is exclusively partnering with a high-growth, PE-backed professional services business in the healthcare sector to appoint a dynamic CFO.
With revenues of ~£50m and EBITDA at £9m, the business has strong momentum and a clear plan to grow EBITDA to £15m within the next 2–3 years.

Key Responsibilities:
* Define and execute financial strategy aligned to value creation and growth.
* Lead financial planning, budgeting, forecasting, and reporting.
* Bring discipline and controls to time-based billing operations.
* Build and lead a high-performing finance function.
* Oversee risk, compliance, and commercial governance.
The Ideal Candidate:

* Proven track record scaling a professional services or consulting business with a time-based billing model.
* Strong understanding of recurring revenue and utilisation-based metrics.
* Confident engaging with investors and boards; strategic yet hands-on when needed.
If you're a high-impact CFO ready to take a business through its next phase of growth while creating meaningful equity value, we’d love to speak with you.
