Fractional | Equity / Share Options Considered | Remote / Midlands

Opportunity

Most Fractional CFO assignments involve joining a business after the important decisions have already been made.

This opportunity is different.

The successful Chief Financial Officer will play a significant part in the strategic growth of the company from day one. Determining how the business is funded, scaled and positioned for future growth.

Working directly with the Founder and alongside experienced technical, operational and industry specialists, you will have genuine influence over funding decisions, capital allocation, future investment rounds and company strategy from the beginning.

This can be a straightforward fractional assignment, a long-term strategic relationship or potentially evolve into a larger role as the business grows.

Company

We are a tech startup, building an AI-powered platform that is a leap forward in how companies map out their business processes. We know the BPMN world, we have experienced leaders and the technical know-how.

The problem that we solve is significant. Process mapping is a prerequisite to making improvements to a business, such as implementing AI. It is also critical to prove compliancy to certain legislation. Our software does it faster and better, no matter what format the data is in, or how messy it is.

At present, the business consists of a small group of founding experts and the product is currently at beta stage. Alongside the software platform, we can also support customers through consultancy services whilst the product is commercialised and scaled.

We are currently pre-revenue and seeking the right forms of finance and investment to fund global growth plans.

Remuneration

We are open to structuring the opportunity around the right individual and the value they can bring. Whether that’s a day rate, retainer, sweat equity, share options or a blended arrangement.

The Role

As Fractional Chief Financial Officer you will act as the principal financial adviser to the Founder.

You will build the financial foundations required to scale the business, define funding requirements, assess funding options, support fundraising activity and help prepare the business for future investment and exit opportunities.

Key areas include:

• Financial modelling, forecasting and growth planning
• Funding strategy and capital planning
• Fundraising and investor engagement
• Grant funding, innovation funding and R&D tax credits
• Runway, burn rate and capital efficiency
• KPI, reporting and governance frameworks
• Cap tables, dilution and equity structures
• Future funding rounds, investment readiness and exit planning

The Person

You are likely to be a Chief Financial Officer, Finance Director, Fractional CFO or Portfolio CFO with experience supporting early-stage software businesses.

You will have experience of:

• Pre-revenue or early-revenue businesses
• SaaS, AI software or subscription business models
• Financial modelling and forecasting from first principles
• Defining funding requirements and funding strategies
• Raising or securing external finance
• Funding events ranging from approximately £100k to £1m+
• Board reporting and investor engagement

Experience with Innovate UK funding, grant funding, R&D tax credits, share option schemes, equity structures, Series A funding, exit preparation and existing investor, lender or innovation funding networks would be highly advantageous.
