As a business owner based in and around Exeter, you will already know that Exeter is a great location for those looking to expand. The pool of talent available here in the Southwest gives any business a head start when it comes to scaling. You know that the right people are out there, but where do you begin when it comes to financial recruitment for your business in Exeter?
Whether you are looking for a Finance Director, a Head of Finance or even need to consider the future format of your finance team, Artemis Clarke can help.
Exeter is a fantastic place to start and run a business. With easy rail and road connections to the rest of England, and as a gateway to the Southwest, it’s no wonder small business and SMEs are thriving here in Exeter.
Many sectors are present within the city, and with the respected Russell group University of Exeter attracting students from all over the country and worldwide, Exeter continues to grow and thrive with independent shops, performing arts and excellent venues.
With the University teaching a diverse range of subjects such as Accounting and Finance, Renewable Energy and Business Management, you can see why many students choose to stay in Exeter and add to the vibrant cultural scene of the city. The Exeter Science Park, established in 2013 also provides the ideal location, facilities, support and skills for start-ups and growing SMEs to establish themselves across the SouthWest and beyond.
Such an explosion of creativity and innovative business always needs good financial sense, and that’s where we come in; helping your business to grow with the right finance team in place.
With our network of fully vetted, experienced Finance Directors we can usually source a part-time or interim FD or CFO within a tight timeframe if the need is urgent. If you are a growing business looking to recruit your first in-house Head of Finance or Finance Director, then we use our Executive Search Process to source the perfect candidate.
FDs can be recruited on a full or part-time basis; if you are a business with a turnover of less than £20m we recommend considering the part-time FD option first. If you already have a competent finance team in place, a PTFD can provide all the benefits of an expert full-time FD at a fraction of the cost. You can choose whether you recruit them in-house on a salary or via Artemis Clarke on a day rate.
You may need a part-time FD in Exeter to oversee a specific project, to put in place some systems and controls, or to build or mentor an effective finance team within your business. They may stay with you for months or even years, delivering high level strategic oversight to help your business scale and meet its growth objectives. Over time they could also become your in-house full-time Finance Director as your business grows and your requirements for their expertise increases.
