Chief Financial Officer

Fractional CFO (Part-Time)

Location: UK-based

Start: 2026

Engagement: Fractional / Part-Time (flexible format)

Good Maven has reached an exciting stage in our growth, and we’re ready to bring on a fractional CFO/CFD to help guide our next chapter. We’re a design recruitment and coaching company with a strong values foundation, and we’re looking for a financial partner who can bring clarity, strategic insight, and steady direction as we scale.

​

About the Role

The fractional CFO will work closely with our founder to shape Good Maven’s financial strategy and provide ongoing guidance as we expand our offerings, grow our client base, and prepare for longer-term structural decisions.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives in early-stage or growing businesses and enjoys supporting founder-led companies in building sustainable, values-driven operations.

​

Key Responsibilities

• Lead/assist with financial planning, budgeting, and forecasting
• Provide strategic insight to support decision-making, pricing models, and service expansion
• Build or strengthen financial processes, reporting rhythms, and financial dashboards
• Advise on cash flow management and scenario planning
• Support long-term organisational design conversations, including potential EOT or purpose-led structures
• Ensure statutory compliance and work with accountants and advisors as needed
• Offer high-level financial stewardship as a trusted partner to the founder

​

Required experience:

• UK-based finance leader
• Strong background advising startups or early-stage companies
• Proven ability to provide clear, accessible financial guidance to non-financial founders
• Comfortable working fractionally (light-touch but high impact)

​

Nice-to-have (not required):

• Experience with recruitment, people-focused, or services-based businesses
• Familiarity with B Corp organisations or values-led operations
• Knowledge of Employee Ownership Trust (EOT) structures
• Work with social impact organisations
• Working with international and/or US-based companies

We are also keen to speak with vendors and advisors from underrepresented backgrounds, and we welcome introductions that broaden who we meet.
