The company

The Football Factory (TFF) is building a new asset class: football-anchored ecosystems that integrate football, real estate and technology, natively, from day one. Our first Football Citadel is secured near Porto, Portugal; three more are planned. We are closing a public crowdfunding round ahead of target and are now moving toward a Series A.

The role

We are looking for a Chief Financial Officer to lead the finance function of a genuinely complex, multi-jurisdiction group at a pivotal moment: the transition from an early-stage raise to institutional capital. This is not a steady-state CFO seat. It requires someone who can raise capital, structure it, and hold together the finances of a cross-border group that spans football operations, real estate development and a technology business — each with a different economic profile.
The right person combines the credibility to sit in front of institutional investors and lenders with the hands-on rigour to run the group's finances day to day.

Key responsibilities

Capital raising & investor relations




Fundraising leadership: lead the execution of the Series A and the subsequent bond issue, from materials and financial narrative through to negotiation and close.
Investor & lender relations: own the relationship with institutional investors, funds and lenders; build and maintain the financial story that underpins each capital event.
Capital structure: design and manage the group's capital structure across equity and debt, in coordination with external counsel and advisors.
Group finance, across borders
Multi-jurisdiction finance: run treasury, reporting, consolidation and financial control across the group's entities (UK, Estonia and asset-level SPVs across jurisdictions).
Financial planning & modelling: own the group financial model, budgeting, forecasting and the analysis that supports strategic decisions.
Controls & compliance: put in place robust financial controls, the Financial Authority Matrix, and cross
