THE ORGANISATION

Our client is a well-established business operating within a fast-paced commercial environment. Following a period of significant operational change, the organisation is focused on strengthening its finance function and ensuring the team is well-positioned to support ongoing business requirements.

With a collaborative and capable finance team already in place, the business is looking to appoint an experienced Financial Accountant on an interim basis to provide additional support during a particularly busy period. This role will play a key part in supporting day-to-day finance activities, assisting with audit requirements, and contributing to ongoing finance-related projects.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced accountant who enjoys balancing operational finance responsibilities with continuous improvement and project work.

Responsibilities will include:

  • Supporting the day-to-day operation of the finance function.
  • Preparing and reviewing balance sheet reconciliations.
  • Performing and maintaining bank reconciliations.
  • Assisting with month-end close activities and financial reporting.
  • Supporting the preparation and delivery of external audit requirements.
  • Helping to ensure financial records are accurate, complete and up to date.
  • Assisting with process improvements and finance-related projects.
  • Working collaboratively with colleagues across the finance team to ensure key deadlines are achieved.
  • Providing ad hoc financial analysis and support as required.

THE IDEAL CANDIDATE

  • Qualified accountant (CA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) or Qualified by Experience (QBE).
  • Previous experience working within a Financial Accountant or similar role.
  • Strong reconciliation experience, including bank reconciliations.
  • Experience supporting year-end or external audit processes.
  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Ability to work independently while contributing effectively as part of a team.
  • Comfortable operating in a fast-paced and evolving environment.
  • Proactive approach with strong problem-solving skills.
  • Available to start at short notice or immediately.

ON OFFER

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced finance professional to join a supportive and collaborative team during an important period for the business. You'll have the chance to make an immediate impact while gaining exposure to both operational finance and wider business improvement initiatives.

  • Salary of £50,000 - £55,000.
  • Initial 3-month contract.
  • Hybrid working arrangement (3 days in the office, 2 days from home).
  • Immediate start available.
  • Opportunity to support key audit activity and finance projects.
  • Collaborative and supportive finance team environment.
  • Varied role combining financial accounting, business-as-usual support and project work.
