Head of Finance

City of London, London

Permanent
120000 - 130000 GBP / Yearly
Head of Finance | Energy | Central London (Hybrid) | £120,000 - £130,000 | Permanent Role 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. 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. 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. The position offers significant exposure to both operational and strategic leadership, combining ownership of the finance function with genuine influence across the business. About the Position As Head of Finance, you'll lead the day-to-day finance function and act as a key business partner to both operational and commercial leadership teams. This is a highly visible role with broad exposure across financial control, planning, commercial decision-making, and operational performance. Day-to-day, you'll: <ul><li>Lead, develop, and motivate the finance team, ensuring clear priorities, strong performance, and ongoing development across the function. * Own the month-end close process, delivering accurate and timely management accounts, KPI reporting, and financial commentary to senior leadership. * Lead budgeting, forecasting, and longer-term planning processes, including scenario analysis and performance modelling. * Partner closely with operational and commercial stakeholders, supporting project delivery, procurement activity, contract reviews, and profitability improvement initiatives. * Maintain a strong financial control environment, ensuring balance sheet integrity, reconciliations, and compliance with group and statutory requirements. * Oversee cash flow management, working capital, payroll oversight, and liquidity forecasting. * Coordinate statutory accounts preparation, audit processes, and wider external reporting requirements. * Drive continuous improvement across finance processes, reporting, systems, and controls. * Support senior leadership on strategic initiatives, investment decisions, and wider commercial projects. * Act as a key finance lead across the division, providing insight, challenge, and commercial support to both finance and non-finance stakeholders.</li></ul> 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. What We're Looking For * Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA). * 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. * Experience within either construction, energy services, or other project-based environments is highly desirable but not essential. * 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. * 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. * Previous people management experience, with a track record of developing and leading high-performing teams. Here's What's Waiting for You <ul><li>£120,000 - £130,000 base salary. * Hybrid working model with Central London office base. * Direct exposure to both the Managing Director and CFO. * Broad leadership role with genuine commercial influence across the business. * Long-term career opportunities within a large international group.</li></ul> Why This Role Could Be Your Next Move This is far more than a traditional Head of Finance role. You'll operate as a genuine commercial partner to the leadership team, supporting operational performance, influencing strategic decisions, and helping drive the continued growth of the business. Alongside ownership of the finance function, you'll gain broad exposure across operational and commercial activity, working closely with stakeholders across project delivery, procurement, planning, and business performance. 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. 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.
