We are now looking for an exceptional Head of Corporate Finance & Treasury to join our Financial Strategy leadership team and play a key role in shaping the long-term financial future of GreenSquareAccord.
As the Group s senior corporate finance leader, you will be responsible for ensuring our long-term financial strength, resilience and capacity. You will lead the development and delivery of our financial strategy, business planning, treasury management and financial risk framework, ensuring that we have the funding and financial capacity required to deliver our corporate plan and strategic ambitions.
Working closely with the Executive Team, Board and Committees, you will provide strategic insight, constructive challenge and assurance across financial performance, investment decisions, funding strategy, capital allocation and emerging financial risks.

You will lead our financial planning, forecasting and modelling framework, alongside the development and delivery of our Treasury Strategy. This will include oversight of borrowing, refinancing, securitisation, liquidity, cash management and interest rate risk, as well as maintaining strong relationships with funders, investors, advisers and other key stakeholders.
The role will also provide strategic financial leadership across development, regeneration, asset management and commercial investment. You will ensure major investment decisions are financially robust, aligned with our capacity and risk appetite, and deliver value for money and strong strategic outcomes.
This is a high-profile role with significant influence across GreenSquareAccord. You will operate at Executive and Board level, providing authoritative advice on financial strategy, treasury management, capital structure, funding, liquidity, financial resilience and major investment decisions.
You will anticipate emerging economic, regulatory and financial challenges, using scenario planning, stress testing and financial modelling to ensure the organisation is prepared for the future. You will also play a leading role in our relationships with funders, credit rating agencies, regulators and external advisers, representing GreenSquareAccord on corporate finance and treasury matters.
Alongside your strategic responsibilities, you will lead and develop a high-performing Corporate Finance & Treasury function. You will create a culture of accountability, collaboration and continuous improvement, developing organisational capability and ensuring the function continues to provide high-quality insight and challenge across the business.

- Strong commercial awareness, analytical ability and the confidence to constructively challenge existing approaches and identify opportunities for improvement.
- A proven ability to lead, develop and inspire high-performing teams.
Experience within the housing sector would be advantageous, as would a treasury qualification such as ACT.
