Our client is looking for a strong, hands-on individual to support cost optimisation initiatives and help piece together different functions of the business. The role will involve helping to structure the organisation effectively, while ensuring alignment with growth initiatives.
The ideal candidate will have experience optimising costs while driving efficiency and supporting growth. The person must be comfortable getting into the detail, rolling up their sleeves, and actively working with teams to extract the necessary information to drive meaningful change.
Key Responsibilities:
* Strategic & Hands-On Approach: Needs to challenge senior leadership while also being operationally involved in making things happen.
* Not Just Delivery: The role isn’t just about execution—it’s about rethinking processes, understanding inefficiencies, and implementing new ways of working.
* Cost Optimisation: Identify areas of waste and reallocate resources effectively rather than simply reducing costs.
* Growth-Linked Thinking: Understanding growth initiatives is fundamental.
* Business-Wide Understanding: Help the company better integrate functions and work collaboratively rather than in silos.
* Strong Communicator & Doer: Must be able to engage at board-level discussions but also work directly with teams to implement change.
Candidate Profile:
* A Balanced Operator: Needs to be able to lead board discussions while also getting stuck into execution.
* Strong, Independent Thinker: Someone who can challenge senior leadership and work through complexity without excessive hand-holding.
* Experience in Growth Companies: Individuals used to working in more dynamic, scaling environments.
* Resource & Process-Oriented: Passion for understanding and structuring team capabilities, ensuring the right people are in the right roles.
* Highly Proactive: Rather than waiting for information, this person will sit with teams, break down structures, and determine what is required for success.
