The role
Interim Projects Finance Controller 3-6 Month Contract | FTC or equivalent day rate | West Yorkshire This is not a holding role. It’s a hands-on, sleeves-rolled-up interim opportunity for a qualified accountant who enjoys variety, pace, and getting close to the business. You’ll be embedded on site within a well-established, multi-entity group, supporting a key operating location while also contributing to wider group initiatives. The brief is broad, practical, and impactful - ideal for someone who thrives on change, projects, and making things better than they found them. Why This Role Stands Out True project exposure across a number of areas in finance High visibility with senior finance and operational stakeholders Variety - systems, controls, reporting, cash, projects Hands-on role where you’re ideas will be heard and needed, not parked Immediate impact - you’ll see the results of your work quickly This is the sort of interim assignment that keeps you engaged because no two weeks look the same. What You’ll Get Involved In You’ll support the day-to-day needs of the site while playing a key role in several planned projects, including: Supporting a systems migration (AR / receivables moving from legacy ERP into Sage) Cash flow forecasting and short-term liquidity visibility Hands-on support through month-end close Reviewing and strengthening financial controls Producing weekly and monthly reporting for site and group Ad-hoc commercial and operational finance support as needed In short: you’ll be the go-to finance problem solver on site. Who This Suits You’ll likely be: A qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA) Comfortable operating across financial control, projects, and commercial support Curious, proactive, and happy to get into the detail Someone who enjoys being close to operations, not distant from them Confident working autonomously, with a can-do, delivery-focused mindset This isn’t a narrow role - it suits someone with a broad skillset who enjoys variety and challenge. The Mindset They’re Looking For Practical, not precious Commercially aware Systems- and process-minded Comfortable with ambiguity Focused on outcomes, not job titles If you like roles where you can add value quickly, improve how things work, and leave a mark, this will suit you. The Bottom Line This is a proper interim assignment: Hands-on High trust High impact No fluff Perfect for someone who enjoys projects, pace, and problem-solving - and wants to spend the next few months doing work that actually matters.
