Job Title: Fractional Finance Director (Hands-On, Construction / Contracting)
Company: Nationwide Fencing Services Ltd
Location: Flexible / UK-based (regular on-site presence required)
Engagement: Fractional / Interim (1–3 days per week initially)

About Us

Nationwide Fencing Services Ltd is a growing security fencing contractor delivering projects across the UK, currently generating approximately £10M in annual turnover.

We are a busy, operationally driven business with a strong pipeline of work. However, we are now at a stage where we require financial and commercial control to ensure we are delivering projects profitably and operating efficiently.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a hands-on, commercially focused Fractional Finance Director with strong experience in construction or contracting businesses.

This is not a traditional reporting role.

We need someone who will:

· Get into the detail of our projects

· Identify where we are losing money

· Implement job-level financial control

· Challenge our operations and estimating teams

· Drive accountability and improved performance

Key Responsibilities1. Job Profitability & Cost Control

· Implement and embed job-level costing and profitability tracking

· Analyse estimated vs actual costs (labour, materials, subcontractors)

· Identify loss-making projects and root causes

· Provide clear visibility of profit per job, per team, and per job type

2. Labour Performance & Operational Control

· Establish systems to track labour hours vs budget on live projects

· Work closely with operations to identify and address overruns

· Challenge site and project teams on performance and efficiency

· Drive a culture of accountability around labour productivity

3. Estimating & Commercial Feedback Loop

· Review pricing and estimating assumptions

· Identify consistent underpricing or missed costs

· Create a feedback loop between estimating and actual delivery performance

· Support improvements in pricing strategy and margin protection

4. Financial Visibility & Reporting

· Produce clear, simple, and actionable management information

· Develop monthly reporting that reflects true business performance

· Build a reliable view of gross margin and net profitability

· Implement basic cash flow visibility and forecasting

5. Overhead & Cost Base Review

· Analyse company overhead structure

· Identify inefficiencies and cost-saving opportunities

· Ensure the business understands its true break-even point

6. Leadership & Accountability

· Work directly with the business owner and senior team

· Challenge assumptions and existing ways of working

· Drive performance through data and clear communication

· Help embed a commercially disciplined culture

What We Are Looking For Essential Experience

· Proven experience as a Finance Director / CFO / Commercial Director within construction, contracting, or similar industries

· Strong track record of improving profitability and financial control

· Experience implementing job costing and project-based financial tracking

· Deep understanding of labour control and operational performance drivers

Personal Attributes

· Direct, honest, and willing to challenge

· Hands-on and detail-oriented

· Comfortable working closely with operational teams

· Not afraid to address underperformance

· Focused on action and outcomes, not just reporting

What Success Looks Like (First 90 Days)

· Clear visibility of profitability across all projects

· Identification of key areas of margin loss

· Implementation of labour vs budget tracking on live jobs

· Improved understanding of pricing accuracy and job performance

· Establishment of regular performance review processes

Why Join Us

· Opportunity to have a real impact on a growing £10M business

· Work directly with the owner to shape the future of the company

· Fast-moving environment where decisions can be implemented quickly

· A role focused on change, improvement, and results

How to Apply

Please submit your CV along with a brief summary of:

· Relevant experience in construction/contracting businesses

· Examples of how you have improved profitability or operational control

· Your availability and preferred working structure

Note: We are specifically seeking a hands-on operator, not a purely advisory or reporting-based Finance Director.

Pay: £25,475.79-£95,868.68 per year

Work Location: In person
