Kelso Pharma’s vision is to bring innovative, value-added, specialty medicines to the European healthcare markets. These medicines provide meaningful benefits to patients and create added value for healthcare stakeholders. The business plans to enhance value for the healthcare system by providing medicines that improve the lives of patients in a cost-effective way and is committed to behaving in an ethical manner in everything that they do.
Kelso Pharma is built upon a blend of company & product acquisitions, partnerships and organic growth, both in the UK and in Europe. The business is focused on creating a positive, entrepreneurial working environment for its people – because a happy team creates value for patients, the healthcare system and the business.
The company is backed by Apposite Capital LLP, a private equity firm specialising in investing in SME businesses in healthcare. The Kelso Pharma team has extensive experience in growing and running a specialty pharma business across Europe. In February 2025 the business announced the acquisition of the UK pharma business, ALTURiX Holdings Limited, is based in Milton Keynes. The transaction marks a significant step towards Kelso’s vision of building a specialty pharma business of scale in the UK and ultimately across Europe. Sales in 2025 are forecast to be around £40m and the business is profitable.
As a result of the recent acquisition and the ambitious growth plans to develop the group into a pan-European specialty healthcare business, the demands on the finance function are increasing. The business now requires a Finance Manager to help support its UK operations.
The UK Finance Manager will support the Financial Controller by helping deliver the operational finance needs of the business as well as supporting the integration of ALTRUiX Holidings Limited to the group.
This is an exciting, progressive opportunity for a talented finance professional with the desire to join a high growth and innovative company. It is crucial that the appointed candidate is able to build positive relationships with key stakeholders across the business to ensure a long-term fit with what is a relatively small team.
