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. To support this ambitious trajectory, we're seeking a commercially astute, PE-proven CFO with deep experience in scaling time-based billing models within consulting or professional services environments.
  
What We're Looking For:
This is a pivotal role for a CFO who thrives in fast-paced, private equity-backed businesses. You'll bring a blend of strategic vision, operational rigour, and credibility with both investors and leadership teams.
  
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:
  • A qualified accountant (ACA/ACCA/CIMA) with prior CFO experience in a PE-backed environment.
  • 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.
