CFO

£20 - £23.4 per hourEstimated

Chief Financial Officer (CFO) – Luxury Hospitality & Wellness

On behalf of an iconic, household name in the luxury hospitality and wellness sector, our client is a market–leading brand currently executing a transformative, heavily backed modernization and expansion strategy. Supported by a premier institutional investment partner, the group is deploying significant capital into portfolio–wide asset upgrades, sustainability infrastructure, and next–generation wellness technology. Simultaneously, the business is pivoting toward a highly scalable, asset–light domestic and international management contract and franchise model.

Reporting directly to the CEO and Board, the incoming CFO will assume ultimate accountability for the group's financial strategy, capital structure, and operational efficiency during a defining chapter of growth and strategic valuation milestones.

Key Responsibilities
  • C–Suite & Board Leadership: Act as a strategic co–pilot to the CEO and Board, providing the financial vision required to steer the group through aggressive scaling and business model evolution.

  • Capital Governance & ROI: Oversee the financial allocation, deployment, and performance tracking of a multi–million–pound capital expenditure and multi–site refurbishment program.

  • Investor Relations & Funding: Manage the critical relationship with the group's primary institutional investment partners, ensuring robust reporting, covenant compliance, and optimized capital structuring.

  • Operational Turnaround & Margin Protection: Drive aggressive profitability initiatives across the estate, implementing strict cost controls and operational efficiencies to successfully counter macroeconomic and inflationary headwinds.

  • Corporate Strategy & Valuation: Lead relationships with tier–one external advisory firms to evaluate long–term strategic options, joint ventures, and corporate valuation milestones.

The Ideal Profile
  • C–Suite Track Record: Proven experience as a CFO, Deputy CFO, or Finance Director within luxury hospitality, elite leisure, premium spa/wellness, or high–end multi–site real estate/retail .

  • Capital Program Stewardship: A successful history of governing large–scale capital allocation programs and property integrations.

  • Business Transformation Expertise: Direct experience navigating structural corporate shifts, specifically the transition from asset–heavy models to asset–light (management contract/franchise) frameworks.

  • Commercial Grit: A proven ability to optimize bottom–line performance, restructure costs, and protect margins in a high–cost economic landscape.

  • Corporate Finance & M&A Savvy: Strong background in corporate fundraising, refinancing, institutional investor relations, or preparing a business for strategic options/valuation events.
