- <p><strong>Head of Finance | Energy | Central London (Hybrid) | £120,000 - £130,000 | Permanent Role</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Robert Half is partnering with a leading energy business that forms part of a large international group, combining the scale and backing of a multinational organisation with a commercially agile and operationally focused culture.</p><p> </p><p>This role sits within one of the group's specialist divisions, supporting a broad portfolio of public and private sector clients across complex infrastructure and energy-related projects. The business operates in a fast-moving, project-driven environment, working closely with operational and commercial teams to deliver long-term sustainable solutions for clients across the UK.</p><p> </p><p>This is a broad and commercially focused Head of Finance role, reporting directly into the Managing Director with a strong dotted line into the CFO.

This is a highly visible role with broad exposure across financial control, planning, commercial decision-making, and operational performance. Day-to-day, you'll:</p><p> </p><ul><li>Lead, develop, and motivate the finance team, ensuring clear priorities, strong performance, and ongoing development across the function.<br /> * Own the month-end close process, delivering accurate and timely management accounts, KPI reporting, and financial commentary to senior leadership.<br /> * Lead budgeting, forecasting, and longer-term planning processes, including scenario analysis and performance modelling.<br /> * Partner closely with operational and commercial stakeholders, supporting project delivery, procurement activity, contract reviews, and profitability improvement initiatives.<br /> * Maintain a strong financial control environment, ensuring balance sheet integrity, reconciliations, and compliance with group and statutory requirements.<br /> * Oversee cash flow management, working capital, payroll oversight, and liquidity forecasting.<br /> * Coordinate statutory accounts preparation, audit processes, and wider external reporting requirements.<br /> * Drive continuous improvement across finance processes, reporting, systems, and controls.<br /> * Support senior leadership on strategic initiatives, investment decisions, and wider commercial projects.<br /> * Act as a key finance lead across the division, providing insight, challenge, and commercial support to both finance and non-finance stakeholders.</li></ul><p> </p><p>This role offers a strong blend of operational finance leadership and commercial business partnering, making it particularly well suited to someone who enjoys working closely with the business.</p><p> </p><p><strong>What We're Looking For</strong></p><p> </p><p>* Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA).<br /> * Significant post-qualified experience within a senior finance leadership role, or as a Financial Controller with broad responsibility across the entire finance function, and a track record of partnering closely with operational leadership to drive commercial performance, strategic decision-making, and business growth.<br /> * Experience within either construction, energy services, or other project-based environments is highly desirable but not essential.<br /> * Previous experience working closely with a Managing Director, Divisional Director, or senior operational leadership team, providing financial, commercial, and strategic support to drive business performance, growth, and decision-making.<br /> * Experience gained within a business environment that has provided broad exposure across all aspects of finance, with responsibility for owning the numbers and supporting operational and commercial decision-making, rather than operating within a highly siloed corporate structure.<br /> * Previous people management experience, with a track record of developing and leading high-performing teams.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Here's What's Waiting for You</strong></p><p> </p><ul><li>£120,000 - £130,000 base salary.<br /> * Hybrid working model with Central London office base.<br /> * Direct exposure to both the Managing Director and CFO.<br /> * Broad leadership role with genuine commercial influence across the business.<br /> * Long-term career opportunities within a large international group.</li></ul><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong>Why This Role Could Be Your Next Move</strong></p><p> </p><p>This is far more than a traditional Head of Finance role.

The role offers the scale and backing of a large international group whilst still maintaining the visibility, pace, and broad exposure often found in more entrepreneurial environments.</p><p> </p><p>For someone looking to combine strong financial leadership with genuine operational and commercial involvement within a growing and project-led business, this represents an excellent opportunity.</p><p> </p><p>Robert Half Ltd acts as an employment business for temporary positions and an employment agency for permanent positions.
