About the Assignment

* Exposure to complex entity structures and a dynamic environment
* Six-month assignment, immediate start


About the Role

Bishop Associates is seeking experienced Management Accountants who are available for immediate starts for a well-regarded, values-led organisation based in Christchurch on a temporary basis for approximately 6 months. This is a fantastic opportunity to join a forward-thinking business with a diverse portfolio and a strong reputation for sustainable growth. Working with a collaborative and supportive finance team, you\'ll contribute directly to performance reporting, analysis, and decision-making with plenty of scope to add value and influence outcomes across the business.

Reporting to the Senior Finance Manager, you will play a key role in financial and management reporting across multiple entities. Your responsibilities will include:

* Completing month-end processes and preparing accurate management accounts.
* Delivering financial and operational reports, including variance analysis and consolidations across multiple entities.
* Driving annual budgeting, quarterly forecasting, and performance monitoring.
* Partnering closely with commercially astute business managers to support operational performance.
* Assisting with statutory reporting and external audit processes.
* Monitoring and reporting on fixed assets and capex.
* Driving process improvements and supporting the use of financial systems and analytical tools.


About You

You\'re a qualified accounting professional (CA/CPA preferred) with solid experience in management accounting and financial reporting. To succeed, you\'ll bring:

* Experience utilising financial models for financial planning purposes.
* Strong commercial awareness and compliance knowledge.
* Excellent Excel and financial systems skills (ERP or similar).
* Proven ability to work independently and engage confidently with stakeholders.
* Analytical thinking and problem-solving skills with an eye for detail.
* And due to the temporary nature of this role, we need someone able to start quickly with an ability to hit the ground running.

Experience working within a complex corporate structure and familiarity with short-term assignments would be an advantage but are not essential.


Why Apply?

You\'ll join a collaborative team in an organisation that values its people and offers variety in a busy, interesting environment. This is an excellent opportunity to make an impact quickly and leave a lasting impression.

Applications will be reviewed as they are received so we encourage you to apply promptly so as not to miss this opportunity.
