Evac has been a pioneer in sustainable technologies and solutions for decades. Cathelco is part of Evac Group. Today we are the world’s leading provider of integrated Evac® water, waste and wastewater technologies, Cathelco® corrosion protection and marine growth prevention and HEM® freshwater systems.
Our technologies address the increasing need for innovative solutions driven by the megatrends of climate change, circularity, and increasingly scarce freshwater resources. We contribute to a better environment and cleaner seas by helping our customers eliminate waste, conserve water, mitigate emissions, and lengthen the lifecycle of their vessels or buildings. Together with our 500 colleagues in 14 countries, we strive for a future with no waste.
As Director, Business Finance, you'll lead the finance operations of our French and Spanish legal entities while acting as the trusted Finance Business Partner to the President of our Yacht business.
You'll be at the heart of commercial decision-making, providing financial insight that drives growth, profitability and performance. From statutory compliance and cash management to strategic planning and business transformation, you'll have a direct impact on the future success of the business.
Key Responsibilities
Strategic Finance Partnership
We offer a broad leadership role with significant exposure to both operational and strategic finance. You'll have the opportunity to influence senior business decisions, work closely with executive leaders and contribute directly to the growth of a global organisation focused on sustainability and innovation.
If you're a commercially focused finance leader looking to make a real impact in an international business, we'd love to hear from you.
