Supercharge your job search
The same inside guidance I'd give a candidate I was working with directly — how to run a smart, senior-level finance search, one short email at a time.
Who’s it for?
Written for senior finance leaders thinking about their next move — whether you're actively looking, being approached, or just quietly wondering whether it's time.
CFOs and Finance Directors
Financial Controllers stepping up
FP&A and finance leadership on the move
What's inside the five emails?
Five short emails, each one thing done properly:
1. Is it time to move? How to think clearly about your search before you touch your CV — and read the quiet signs that it's time.
2. The CV that opens doors Why the standard finance CV falls flat with boards and recruiters, and what to do differently.
3. The roles you'll never see advertised The three routes to market — and how to work the hidden job market where most senior roles are actually filled.
4. Walk in over-prepared Keeping your search alive without it taking over your life, and getting genuinely interview-ready.
5. Manage the offer Handling the offer and the counter-offer, and finishing the process well.
Why listen to me?
I'm Ray Nicholls, founder of Pitch Hill Partners. For over 20 years I've helped senior finance people find their next role or interim assignment — placing people at every stage of the journey, from first management role to Group CFO. This is the guidance I'd give you across a coffee if we were working together. It should be an enjoyable period, not a stressful one — change is good.
