You know that the right people are out there, but where do you begin when it comes to financial recruitment for your growing business here in London?
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.
London continues to thrive grow as a central hub for businesses operating within the UK, and internationally. While London will always be one of the most sought-after cities for tourists and holidaymakers from all over the world, the city is also the main destination for many companies, and is particularly attractive to entrepreneurs and scaling businesses. With a growing population of over 9 million people, home to more than 20 universities and an efficient infrastructure, building a business in London means you have access to second to none networking opportunities, fantastic transport links, and a great choice of co-working and office space.
All of these factors will contribute towards a well-rounded business, but addressing your finances is the key to continued successful growth.
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 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.
