Interim CFO | Technology-Led Professional Services Scale-Up | Immediate Start \n \n The Client \n \n Harmonic is delighted to be partnering with a fast-scaling, technology-led professional services business at a pivotal moment. The company has grown quickly, builds its own technology, and has ambitions to be genuinely AI-native across the way it operates. It is now moving to refinance, and getting that deal done cleanly, quickly and on the right terms is a board-level priority. \n \n The Role \n \n This is a full-time interim CFO mandate with a single, clear focus: lead the refinancing and get the deal over the line. Reporting to the CEO and working with an established corporate finance advisory team, you will own the internal side of the raise: building the credit narrative, pulling the content and numbers together, and standing in front of the banks and their credit committees to close it. The debt stack is not currently optimised and interest costs are too high, so pace matters; the aim is to close within defined windows this autumn. This is a hands-on and strategic role for a deal maker who can walk in, get on top of the numbers, tell the story credibly, and take the pressure of the process off the leadership team. \n \n Key Responsibilities \n \n\n • Lead the debt refinancing end to end, from shaping the approach through to close within the target timetable.\n, • Build the credit narrative and the supporting story that lenders and credit committees will underwrite.\n, • Own the numbers going into the process, firm up the forecast and present clean, accurate management information.\n, • Represent the business in front of banks, lenders and credit committees, and get the deal done when the CEO is not in the room.\n, • Work hand in hand with the corporate finance advisors, giving them the internal support and content they need to move at pace.\n, • Hold the deal timetable to account and keep the process moving so every week of unnecessary interest cost is stripped out.\n, • Act as a senior commercial finance partner to the CEO through a business-critical raise.\n\n \n Essential Experience \n \n\n • Qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA or equivalent), operating at CFO level.\n, • Proven track record of leading and closing debt raises and refinancings; this is your specialism, not a one-off.\n, • Strong grasp of how banks and credit committees assess a deal, and the ability to build a narrative that gets them there.\n, • The gravitas and credibility to front the process with lenders and directors and be trusted to close it.\n, • Comfortable operating in a professional services model, fluent in utilisation, engagement economics and the metrics lenders focus on.\n, • Able to work at pace under pressure, available immediately, and able to commit full time to a single mandate.\n\n \n Desirable Experience \n \n\n • Exposure to technology-led or AI-native businesses.\n, • Experience helping to professionalise a finance function or build out a permanent team.\n, • Prior interim or portfolio CFO experience across multiple raises.\n\n \n Day Rate: £900-£1,200 per day \n Location: Remote (UK), with occasional travel for key lender and team meetings \n Duration: Three-month interim contract initially, with strong scope to extend \n Start Date: ASAP \n \n If this is of interest, please apply online or email for more information. \n \n At Harmonic, we are dedicated to fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace. We actively welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds and assure you that every candidate will be thoughtfully considered for the roles we represent, without regard to race, religion, gender expression, disability, or sexual orientation. \n At Harmonic, we are dedicated to fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace.

The post will focus exclusively on the GLA itself and will not cover Transport for London, the Metropolitan Police, London Fire Brigade or the other functional bodies, giving the successful candidate clear ownership of the GLA’s own capital strategy, programme and reporting. \n \n For someone with strong local authority capital accounting experience, this is an opportunity to combine technical depth with strategic influence. You will help shape how the GLA plans, finances and accounts for significant capital investment, ensuring that funding, financing and accounting decisions support the organisation’s priorities and long-term financial sustainability. \n \n The role \n This is a matrix role, with approximately 60% of the focus on the capital strategy and business partnering and 40% on technical accounting. \n You will lead the development, implementation and annual review of the GLA’s Capital Strategy, ensuring that investment priorities, funding requirements and financing decisions support the organisation’s strategic priorities and long-term financial sustainability. \n Working closely with Finance Business Partners, Financial Accounting and Treasury colleagues, you will bring together the technical and strategic elements of capital finance to ensure the GLA has a joined-up approach to capital planning, monitoring, financing and reporting. \n A significant part of the role will involve supporting investment into capital programmes.

You will have the opportunity to influence the GLA’s approach to capital investment while remaining close to the technical detail that underpins robust financial management. \n It offers a strong combination of: \n\n • ownership of capital strategy;\n, • significant technical capital accounting responsibility;\n, • exposure to major capital investment decisions;\n, • senior stakeholder engagement;\n, • statutory financial reporting;\n, • capital programme monitoring;\n, • process improvement; and\n, • the opportunity to work across finance through a matrix structure.\n\n The GLA has a unique role in shaping the future of London. For a capital finance professional, this provides the opportunity to apply your technical expertise within an organisation whose investment decisions can have a significant and visible impact on the capital. \n \n Who we are looking for \n You will be a CCAB-qualified accountant, or equivalent, with substantial experience of capital accounting within a large and complex local authority environment. \n You should bring strong technical knowledge of local government capital accounting together with the credibility to advise, influence and challenge senior stakeholders. \n The successful candidate is likely to have: \n\n • CCAB qualification or equivalent, with up-to-date CPD.\n, • Significant experience working within the capital accounting function of a large and complex local authority.\n, • Strong knowledge of the CIPFA/LASAAC Code of Practice on Local Authority Accounting, the CIPFA Prudential Framework and relevant capital and finance accounting regulations.\n, • Experience of delivering published financial statements.\n, • Experience of working directly with external auditors.\n, • The ability to interpret accounting standards and legislation and apply them to complex capital projects.\n, • Experience providing credible professional advice and constructive challenge to senior stakeholders.\n, • A track record of improving finance systems, processes or reporting.\n, • Strong analytical skills, including the ability to interrogate financial systems and work effectively with Excel.\n\n \n Just as importantly, you will need to be comfortable operating across organisational boundaries. The role requires somebody who can translate complex technical issues into clear advice, build effective relationships and bring together stakeholders from finance and the wider organisation. \n The GLA is looking for someone who can combine technical authority with pragmatism: somebody able to challenge assumptions, solve complex problems and ensure that sound capital accounting supports better strategic investment decisions. \n \n Please apply here, or for a confidential chat, reach out to thomas@mlcpartners.co.uk

\n Head of Finance | PE-Backed Multi-Site Scaleup | London \n Harmonic are delighted to be partnering with a PE-backed, founder-led membership scaleup built for the creative industries in their search for a Head of Finance. The Client\n The business gives its members access to world-class creative and workspace facilities on flexible terms. It has grown from a single London site to a profitable multi-site estate with a fast-growing member base, and has recently completed a significant private equity investment alongside backing from a group of institutional investors and well-known operators from the workspace and creative worlds. \n Further openings are already in the pipeline, with a rollout plan behind them and a long-term plan to build towards an exit. \n Finance has been handled to date by an outsourced accounting team and a fractional CFO. This is the first senior finance hire the business has made in-house. The Role\n Reporting directly to the CEO and Co-Founder, the Head of Finance will be the source of truth for the business - the person the leadership team, the board and the investors turn to for a clear and current picture of performance. \n At the centre of the role sits the company financial model, including the multi-site expansion model.

Around it you will own cash flow, the budgeting and reforecasting cycle, the monthly reporting pack and the board pack, and build the commercial insight that explains what the numbers are telling the business. \n You will not inherit a finished finance function. You will design it: the processes, the systems, the reporting, and in time the team beneath you.

You have built and maintained a model that a board actually made decisions on\n, • Experience owning a budgeting and reforecasting cycle, including holding non-finance budget holders accountable to it\n, • Exceptional attention to detail\n, • Experience in a multi-site, bricks-and-mortar rollout business: hospitality, leisure, gyms, coffee, hotels, retail or flexible workspace\n, • Exposure to a private equity or institutionally backed business, including board and investor reporting\n, • Experience of physical expansion, site investment or capex planning\n, • Genuine interest in the media, music, film, or advertising space\n Package\n Location: London (2-3 days in office) \n Start Date: Flexible (ASAP ideal) \n At Harmonic, we are dedicated to fostering an inclusive and equitable workplace.
