With Raffles London at The OWO still consolidating its finance function post-opening, Nick and the team are a natural fit for an AFC who has already owned a purchase-to-pay process rebuild at a comparable Mayfair luxury property and brings hands-on payroll, purchase ledger, and P&L depth at exactly the right seniority level.

Nick,
With Raffles London at The OWO still bedding in its finance function, I wanted to put one specific candidate in front of you rather than send a speculative list.
We are currently representing an Assistant Financial Controller from The Dorchester, six years into a career built around payroll, purchase ledger, and P&L ownership at a senior-facing level. The standout here is practical rather than cosmetic: this person led the full purchase-to-pay process rebuild at The Dorchester, a property whose operational complexity and ownership reporting expectations are directly comparable to The OWO.
That kind of structured, process-owning mindset at AFC level is genuinely difficult to find in the current London market, particularly with hands-on payroll depth alongside it.
Availability is four weeks. Salary expectations are detailed on the CV, which I am happy to send across if this feels worth a conversation.
Kind regards,
Sarah

Alberto — Chief Financial Officer
✉ alberto@corinthia.com
Having rebuilt purchase-to-pay at The Dorchester, a Mayfair luxury flagship of comparable scale and ownership complexity, this candidate brings directly transferable AP and P&L ownership experience that Corinthia London's finance team, reporting into Alberto at CFO level, would recognise as genuinely plug-and-play rather than aspirational.

Dear Alberto,
I wanted to bring a candidate to your attention who I think is a strong fit for Corinthia London specifically, not just on paper.
This is an Assistant Financial Controller with six years at The Dorchester, covering payroll, purchase ledger and P&L ownership across a property that shares a good deal of Corinthia's ownership complexity and luxury positioning. The standout piece is that they personally led the rebuild of The Dorchester's purchase-to-pay function, taking it from the ground up and seeing it through operationally.
For a finance team reporting into you at CFO level, that kind of hands-on AP process ownership at a comparable Mayfair flagship is genuinely transferable rather than something that needs bedding in.
They are available on four weeks' notice and are looking for the right step, not simply any step.
Would it be worth a brief call? I can have a CV with you promptly.
Kind regards,
Daniel
