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

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‑border tax and regulatory compliance.

Corporate structure & entities

Group architecture: partner with the CEO and external counsel to design and build out the group's corporate structure — holding companies, operating entities and asset‑level SPVs across jurisdictions — ensuring it is efficient, investor‑ready and fit for the coming bond issue.

Entity governance: oversee the incorpo
