The Opportunity
Are you a highly analytical Management Accountant with strong forecasting expertise, looking for a role where your insight genuinely makes a difference?
This is a visible, high‑impact opportunity where your ability to interpret data, identify trends, and deliver accurate forecasts will directly support key business decisions. You’ll operate at a senior level within the organisation, forming part of the management team, with real influence and exposure – all without direct line management.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys being hands‑on, solving problems, and turning complex data into clear, actionable outcomes.
Due to current business needs, we require someone who can start at short notice. We are open to both interim contractors and permanent candidates, offering flexibility depending on your situation.
If you’re an experienced Management Accountant who values ownership, visibility, and the opportunity to make a tangible commercial impact, this role offers both challenge and progression in a supportive, forward‑thinking environment.
