The Challenge
ASOS needed an interim finance leader who could hit the ground running, bring proven commercial insight, and operate credibly with senior stakeholders, including members of the executive leadership team. Cultural alignment with the brand was essential, as was the ability to deliver within a tightly controlled interim budget.
The Solution
JSS identified a high-calibre interim candidate who impressed at every stage of the interview process. With a strong background in retail and e-commerce finance, exceptional technical capability, and a short notice period, the candidate was able to transition quickly into the role and meet ASOS’ commercial and stakeholder requirements.
The Impact
The appointed interim Senior Finance Manager exceeded expectations, delivering strongly in their core remit while also adding value across wider business initiatives. She supported additional projects and provided management and mentorship to junior team members, resulting in a broader and more sustained impact on the finance function than initially anticipated.
