Digital recruitment specialists Opinio Group, owners of MyJobMatcher.com, have announced the appointment of Chris Chapman as Interim CFO.
Founder of My Business FD, Chris has a background of over 20 years working across a variety of sectors driving growth via strategic planning, commercial analysis, fundraising, M&A, IPOs, exits, restructuring and expansion.
Opinio CTO, Arran Stewart said, “I am delighted that Chris is now involved with Opinio at such an exciting time in our development. We’ve attracted some really big hitters in the board room who are all right behind Opinio and the MyJobMatcher.com product. The company’s growing rapidly and we’re on the verge of launching MyJobMatcher.com in the States; there are going to be some very good times ahead.”
Chris says that with MyJobMatcher.com, the beauty lies in its simplicity. “I’ve known Arran for several years and as soon as he talked me through MyJobMatcher.com, I was really impressed. The concept of matching people to jobs is a simple one to grasp, but it’s surprising that nobody has done it yet. With the largest pool of current vacancies at our disposal, we’re uniquely placed to make it easier for jobseekers to find their next role.”
Chris started his career with Lotus Cars and has since worked in the rail industry, with Cambridge software business Smallworld, General Electric, outsourcing business RR Donnelly and investment research firm, Library House.
Since the end of 2008 Chris has developed My Business FD, a team of highly experienced finance professionals delivering flexible part time FD support to growing SMEs, as well as specialised interim roles and handling the recruitment of high performance finance teams.
Excited about MyJobMatcher’s future, Chris added, “The traction they’ve achieved in a very short period of time is testament to the quality of the team, the value the proposition adds to job boards and the simplicity of the experience to the jobseeker. I’m confident that 2015 will see further strong growth and I’m looking forward to being a part of it!”
