Base pay range

Ever wondered what it takes to turn a creative agency into a powerhouse ready for its next big chapter?

A UK-based creative agency is on a mission: to continue growing its portfolio of world-leading brands and prepare for a future sale in three years. To make this vision a reality, we’re looking for a Finance Director who doesn’t just crunch numbers, but drives strategy, value creation, and meaningful growth.

Imagine partnering closely with the CEO and senior leadership to shape the agency’s financial future, optimising performance, guiding M&A activity, and leading a high-performing finance team. You’ll be at the heart of a fast-paced, client-centric business that thrives on creativity helping global brands make powerful, hyper-relevant connections with their audiences.

Why this role is exciting:

  • Be a strategic partner in shaping the agency’s next growth chapter and PE-backed value creation journey
  • Lead a proactive, commercially-focused finance function that scales with the business
  • Influence key decisions, from forecasting and dashboards to client profitability and staffing
  • Enjoy an entrepreneurial environment with autonomy, impact, and recognition
  • Attractive reward package including competitive salary, discretionary bonus, profit share, LTIP, and bespoke development plans

The role in practice:

  • Act as a financial partner to the CEO and management team on both financial and business strategy
  • Lead budgeting, forecasting, reporting, payroll, VAT, Corporation tax, and statutory accounts
  • Develop dashboards and board packs that inform business-critical decisions
  • Support M&A activity and funding requirements
  • Engage with agency and client leadership on profitability, staffing, and capacity planning
  • Build, lead, and mentor a commercially-oriented, high-performing finance team

What we’re looking for:

  • Proven experience in PE-backed environments, M&A, and exit scenarios
  • Strong commercial acumen and credibility with senior leadership and external stakeholders
  • Experience in marketing, creative, or advertising agencies (Agency, Digital, PR or Marketing Services)
  • Chartered accountant (or equivalent) with technical accounting expertise
  • Strategic thinker who is also hands‑on in a fast-paced environment

Location: Hybrid but 2 days on sight

If you’re ready to take a leading role in shaping the financial strategy of a creative powerhouse, helping it grow, scale, and maximise value we’d love to hear from you.
