About You The following Modaxo Leadership Mindsets are most relevant to this role, drawn from the Group's Leadership Mindsets Framework.

Proficiency levels below reflect the expectation for a Group-level finance leadership role (Foundation → Intermediate → Advanced → Expert):

• Operational Excellence (Advanced — Commercial Acumen): you apply deep commercial insight to resource allocation, investment decisions and growth planning across the four businesses, not just to reporting accuracy.
• Accountability (Advanced — Execution): you lead the Group Financial Controller and BU finance contacts to exceed goals consistently, building systems that sustain high performance over time.
• Integrity (Advanced — Transparency): you create an environment across the Group where openness is the norm, addressing control or compliance concerns proactively rather than reactively.
• Strategic Execution (Advanced — Long-term Planning): you shape multi-year financial direction for the Group, anticipating risk and dependency across all four businesses rather than planning BU by BU.

Practical This is a remote role, based within Europe.
