A growing property and investment group in North Leeds is looking for a commercially focused Head of Finance to lead the finance function across a multi-entity business.

This is a senior leadership role with real visibility across the group. You’ll work closely with the directors, take ownership of the finance function day-to-day, and play a key part in strategic decisions around growth, investment and performance.

The business operates across property investment, estate agency and education, with an ambitious leadership team and a strong growth agenda already underway.

This role would suit someone who enjoys being close to the detail but can also step back and influence wider commercial decisions.

The business is scaling quickly and needs a strong finance lead who can bring clarity, control and commercial insight across multiple entities and revenue streams.
You’ll be responsible for ensuring the numbers are accurate and delivered on time, but equally important is your ability to turn financial information into practical recommendations that help drive performance.
