Global Commercial Finance Director | PE Backed SaaS/Tech/Data | London | £DOE + Bonus + Equity

We’re partnering with a high-growth, private equity-backed SaaS and data business entering an exciting phase of international expansion. Backed by a leading mid-market PE fund since 2022, the company is scaling rapidly through platform innovation, strategic acquisitions, and new market entry.

As Global Commercial Finance Director , you’ll join the senior leadership team and be a key strategic partner to the CEO, CFO, and investors. You'll play a critical role in shaping financial strategy, enhancing commercial performance, and supporting long-term value creation. A highly competitive salary and equity package is available for the right candidate.

Why Join?

• Influence the commercial direction of a scaling SaaS/data business with global ambition
• Partner directly with senior leadership and PE sponsors on key value creation initiatives
• Join a business with strong product-market fit, high customer retention, and recurring revenue growth
• Share in long-term upside through a meaningful equity package

Key Responsibilities

• Own commercial finance strategy, planning, and performance insight across products, regions, and customer segments
• Drive SaaS metrics insight – including ARR, churn, LTV/CAC, NRR – and support data-led growth decisions
• Lead budgeting, forecasting, and long-range planning processes to inform strategic direction
• Build robust financial models to evaluate market expansion, pricing strategy, and product roadmap impact
• Deliver clear, actionable reporting and board-level analysis to internal stakeholders and PE investors
• Implement improved reporting systems, BI tools (e.g. Power BI), and scalable finance infrastructure
• Build and lead a high-performing commercial finance and FP&A team to support scale
• Support exit readiness by preparing investor materials, refining KPIs, and strengthening finance processes for due diligence and future transaction events
• Qualified accountant (ACA/ACCA/CIMA) with a background in commercial finance, transaction services, or FP&A
• Strong experience in SaaS, tech, or data businesses, or a business with a subscription-based model and recurring revenue focus
• Proven success in PE-backed environments, partnering closely with C-suite and investors

Nice to have:

• Advanced modelling and commercial analytics capability, including pricing and ROI analysis
• Exposure to M&A, post-deal integration, and preparing a business for exit is highly desirable
• A hands-on, high-impact leader who thrives in dynamic, high-growth settings

This is a standout opportunity to shape the commercial and financial performance of a fast-growing business. If you bring strong commercial acumen, private equity experience, and a passion for driving value, we’d love to hear from you.
