Head of Finance

Head of Finance & Ops – High-Growth Health Tech SaaS 🚑📊

Propel is partnering with a fast‑growing UK healthtech SaaS business building the critical communications layer for healthcare, effectively the Slack equivalent for frontline clinical teams.

Their platform enables real‑time, reliable and secure communication across hospitals, ensuring clinicians can be reached instantly in high‑risk situations such as cardiac arrest, trauma, or rapid patient deterioration. In a space still dominated by legacy tools (bleepers), they’re bringing meaningful innovation to an environment where robustness, security and data protection are non‑negotiable.

They’re now hiring their first senior finance leader to build the commercial and financial foundations for the next stage of scale.

• Partnering closely with the senior leadership team on commercial and strategic decision‑making.
• Owning financial planning, forecasting, cashflow and scenario modelling to support growth.
• Building clarity around revenue, sales cycles and conversion metrics where structure is still emerging.
• Owning and reporting on core SaaS metrics (ARR, MRR, churn, LTV/CAC), creating a consistent performance view across the business.
• Supporting fundraising and investor processes, including modelling, projections and due diligence materials.
• Working across systems including Quick Books,  and AWS to surface meaningful, actionable data.
• Introducing smart, lightweight reporting focused on insight rather than overhead.

• Head of / Director of Finance‑level experience, ideally from B2B or enterprise SaaS environments.
• Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with strong commercial instincts.
• Someone who has come from one of the 10 top‑tier accounting firms.
• Proven experience in forecasting, cashflow and growth modelling within a scale‑up context.
• Comfortable owning SaaS metrics and translating data into clear, practical insight for non‑finance stakeholders.
• Experience supporting revenue growth and fundraising, with ambition to progress toward a CFO role over time.
• Autonomous, detail‑driven and systems‑literate, with a preference for low‑friction, high‑impact processes.
• Thoughtful, confident and credible, someone who listens, owns their area, and earns trust quickly.
