About the role

It is a central role serving the Mobility business and membership of the Mobility Leadership Team.
Key responsibilities
- Shape capital strategy with the Managing Director, including funding sources, capital structure and the sequencing of future raises; own the Mobility financial model and lead finance work supporting fundraising and investor due diligence.
- Own performance and reporting: lead business performance reviews and oversee the financial content of leadership and board reporting.
- Drive financial planning: own the annual business plan, budget and financial targets, and build the reporting and insight needed for pricing, retention economics and new market investment decisions.
- Lead treasury execution: work across Mobility and Group Finance to forecast cash and funding requirements so that funding and payments support the pace of growth.
- Enable growth through procurement: lead the Mobility procurement team, balancing speed and cost-efficiency with the governance and controls required within the wider M-KOPA Group.
- Act as the first point of contact for finance matters raised by the Managing Director, General Manager and Head of Portfolio, and work closely with Group Finance so that Mobility's reporting, controls and records meet Group policies and Big 4 audit standards.
Required profile
- 10+ years of finance experience, including senior leadership in a fast-growing, capital-intensive or lending business.
- Experience raising debt or equity, from financial modelling and investor materials through due diligence to close.
- Experience owning a business plan, budget and financial targets and holding the business accountable to them.
- Experience leading financial reporting in a multi-entity or group environment with strong governance and audit standards.
- Experience working with credit or risk teams to connect portfolio performance, priced risk and financial reporting.
- Experience leading teams and acting as a senior business partner, influencing decisions beyond Finance.
The ideal candidate can move comfortably between detail and the big picture, interrogate numbers, challenge assumptions, communicate with investors and leadership, and turn financial insight into commercial action. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis; shortlisting and interviews happen at any stage, and the vacancy may close early if a suitable candidate is found. Pre-employment background checks are carried out for successful applicants.
