About this role
Role: Interim Chief Financial Officer About the opportunity Our client, a startup in an active fundraising phase, is seeking an interim CFO on an urgent basis following the recent departure of its previous finance leader. This is initially a 3-6 month engagement, with the possibility of evolving into a longer-term conversation depending on fit and business needs. What the role involves • Leading day-to-day finance operations within a small, hands-on team of two • Managing shareholder relations and supporting active fundraising efforts • Driving investor and banking relationships • Overseeing deal structuring and governance matters • Operating in a fast-paced, resource-constrained startup environment where you'll be doing the work directly, not just delegating What we're looking for • Strong, demonstrable Luxembourg experience (living in Luxembourg is not required, provided you have this background) • Ideally, experience in telco or a comparable B2B subscription business (e.g. logistics, data centers) - this is preferred but not a strict requirement • Substantial commercial experience gained outside the funds industry • A track record in fundraising, investor management, and banking relationships • Comfort working hands-on in a lean finance function rather than a larger, more layered team • Strong English communication skills Practical details • Minimum commitment: 3-6 months with possibility to become permanent • On-site requirement: at least 3 days per week in the office • Start date: as soon as possible
