Charterhouse are working with an international financial services group who is looking to hire a Group Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to join their executive leadership team. The Group CFO will report to the CEO and Board of Directors, and take ownership of the financial strategy of the group.

The main responsibility for the Group CFO revolves setting the diversified business up for growth through preparing for IPO, M&A and investor relation activities. This includes deal structuring, financial modelling and securing funding. The group spans financial investment, insurance, real estate and manufacturing, so this role will be responsible for the financial planning and analysis for all entities across multiple locations.

The Group CFO will be tasked with structuring these entities to enhance stability and operational efficiency. A key element of this role is driving IPO readiness both in the UAE and Indian markets. The Group CFO will collaborate with investment banks and advisors to manage financing, share pricing and investor materials.

Requirements:

The successful candidate should hold a recognised accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA, CPA or equivalent) and have at least 10 years’ experience in senior finance leadership roles, preferably within the financial services sector. The ideal candidate should have a track record in handling M&A activities and IPO dealings, ideally in the UAE and India.

Financial modelling, working capital management and regulatory reporting should also be very familiar to the successful candidate.

About the Company

The Charterhouse brand and business was launched in Dubai and the Middle East in April 2004 by a team of international recruiters and management consultants, after its inception in Sydney, Australia in September 2003. Charterhouse Middle East is now positioned as the leading regional recruiter within its area of disciplines and functional markets.

Charterhouse offers professional and bespoke contingency and retained search services to all sectors of the market. Service quality is guaranteed, thanks to a particular focus on flexibility. Charterhouse was the first international search and selection business to establish Dubai as its base.
