Scaling commercial finance for a high-growth food delivery platform

Introduction

JSS supported a global food delivery platform through a period of rapid growth, strengthening its commercial finance function with both interim and permanent leadership hires.

The Challenge

A global, technology-led food delivery platform was undergoing rapid commercial expansion and needed to strengthen its commercial finance function. The brief included a permanent Commercial Finance Manager and two interim hires to support deals and business partnering.

The Solution

JSS partnered closely with the CFO and finance leadership team to understand technical requirements, stakeholder complexity and cultural fit. We conducted targeted market mapping across high-growth consumer tech and QSR sectors, rapidly securing interim specialists while running a parallel permanent search.

The Impact

All roles were successfully filled, with interim hires onboarded within days and the permanent appointment already driving improved commercial insight. The client reported increased confidence in future hiring and continues to partner with JSS on finance mandates.

Finding the right finance leader at Brighton University

Brighton University needed a Deputy Director of Finance to strengthen its leadership team. They initially engaged a well-known executive search firm, but its focus on senior executives didn’t quite match the university’s need for a middle-management finance leader. They required a search partner with a strong network at this level who could move quickly.
