PARTNER Executive is delighted to be partnering with a successful, privately owned property investment and management group on the appointment of its first Chief Financial Officer. With an established portfolio anchored in shopping centres and retail assets, the business is entering an exciting new chapter, and this appointment will play a central role in shaping its future direction.

As the inaugural CFO, you will work closely with the owners and leadership team, providing financial and commercial leadership across the portfolio and building the finance function to support the group's continued growth. This is a genuinely strategic role, well beyond the numbers.

The Opportunity:

• A first-of-its-kind appointment: the business's inaugural CFO, with real scope to build and shape the finance function from the ground up.
• Strategic influence: partner directly with the owners on investment decisions, portfolio strategy and growth planning.
• Broad commercial remit across an established portfolio of shopping centres and retail property assets.
• Drive financial leadership: reporting, capital management, funding and performance across the group.
• A strong property background is essential, with shopping centre / retail asset experience highly regarded.
• Suited to a commercially astute, hands-on finance leader who wants genuine ownership of their function and a seat at the table.
