Chief Financial Officer
# Chief Financial Officer **Hozah** · Croydon · `On-site` 🕒 **Статус:** *Опубликовано: вчера* · *Источник: Indeed* --- ### About the Role Location: East Croydon, London (next to East Croydon station) · Hybrid: 3 days in the office, 2 days from home Reports to: CEO (David Fowle), with regular exposure to the Board Direct reports: Finance Director, team of 4 Start: ASAP About Hozah Hozah is a tech-led, award-winning company driving change in the parking industry and reimagining urban mobility. Our mission is simple but powerful: to transform parking into a seamless, automated experience, paving the way for smarter, more sustainable cities. With recent recognition as PayTech Company of the Year, a place among Deloitte's Top 50 Fastest Growing Tech Companies in the UK, and significant VC/PE investment, we're one of the fastest-scaling companies in the country. The role Hozah is scaling rapidly and we're looking for a commercial, hands-on CFO to be the right hand to the CEO and a partner to the wider leadership team. This is not a back-office, keep-the-books role; it's a seat at the top table. We want someone who changes how the business thinks about its numbers, its unit economics, and where growth is coming from. You'll use your knowledge of financial and data technology (e.g. Snowflake, BigQuery, Omni, Looker, Metabase) to build the FP&A and forecasting capability the business needs to scale with confidence, and give the CEO, the Board and our investors a clear, forward-looking view of the business. This role goes beyond reporting and analysis. You'll be directly involved in the company's most important commercial decisions, partnering with the CEO and commercial team on negotiations, investment decisions and strategic initiatives. You'll help win deals, not just measure them. We want someone pragmatic and front-footed: comfortable rolling up their sleeves, able to explain the big picture and the detail at the same time, opinionated about where value is created, and excited to use AI to make finance faster, sharper and more strategic. What you'll own - Being the CEO's right hand on all things financial, commercial and strategic - Bringing rigour and a fresh lens to growth decisions - Commercial deal-making support: pricing, contract economics, and the numbers behind new site and client decisions - Building and owning budgeting, forecasting and FP&A - The forward-looking board pack and investor reporting that leadership and shareholders use to make decisions - The KPIs and financial dashboards that connect day-to-day operations to financial outcomes - Cash flow, capex, working capital and scenario planning as the business scales - Building, leading and developing the finance team, including growing existing talent toward more senior roles - The processes, controls and systems a scaling business needs, without bureaucracy that slows it down - Partnering with the CEO and investors on fundraising, refinancing and M&A / corporate development - Banking, treasury and key financial partner relationships - A front-footed approach to AI and automation across reporting, forecasting, reconciliation and analysis Who we're looking for - You've led finance before, or you're ready for your first shot and can prove it. A strong FD/Head of Finance ready to step up, or an early second-time CFO who wants to build rather than inherit. Either way, you can walk us through a function you built, not just one you worked inside. - You're commercial, not just technical. You read the business, not just the ledger, and have a view on where value is created and where it leaks. - You can build FP&A from scratch. Modelling, forecasting, scenario planning: the forward view is your craft, not something you outsource. - You're hands-on. You'll build it yourself before you delegate it, and you're not above the detail. - You're front-footed on tech and AI in finance. You already use modern tooling to make a lean function punch above its weight. - You make numbers land with people who don't live in them. A founder, an ops lead and an investor in the same room, each hearing what the numbers mean for them. - You're comfortable stepping outside the finance lane and getting involved directly with clients and suppliers. Nice to have - CFO, FD or Head of Finance experience in a VC/PE-backed scale-up, ideally through a fundraise or refinancing - Experience in a marketplace, proptech, paytech, or subscription/usage-based B2B business - Direct experience leading or closely supporting a fundraise, refinancing or M&A process - Presenting to a board and/or investor syndicate, not just internal stakeholders - Building or scaling a finance team from a small base What we offer - Real canvas. A proven, cash-generative business with the finance function still in its early innings: a de-risked model and a blank page. - Real ownership. You own the function, the plan and the numbers, and you're in the room for every growth decision. - Real mission. Our tech is quietly reshaping how the physical world of parking and mobility works. - Meaningful upside. A competitive package with a meaningful bonus and equity tied to what you build. Why Hozah? At Hozah, you'll play a pivotal role in a purpose-driven company at the forefront of urban mobility innovation. We foster a culture of collaboration, creativity and positive impact, where your contributions help shape the future of smarter cities. If you're looking to make a real difference in the future of mobility (and enjoy our friendly office dogs), we'd love to hear from you.
