Offer description

Management Accountant (Maternity Cover) (RDW1118) North Yorkshire, England

Salary: GBP40000 - GBP50000 per annum

Management Accountant (Maternity Cover) | North Yorkshire | £40-£50k FTC Equiv | 2-4 days per week | 8 month contract starting July/August

If you’re the kind of accountant who thrives on variety, from closing the books to rolling up your sleeves on debt collection and stock, this could be your next role.

A leading SME in the agriculture sector, this business is gearing up for a key maternity cover hire in their finance team. With support from a team of five, they’re looking for a hands-on, adaptable Management Accountant to join the business from late July/early August, with a 1-month handover before the cover begins in earnest.

What’s the gig?

* Support the FD and finance team with monthly management accounts
* Get involved in stock accounting across manufacturing, agri-trade, and retail
* Contribute to everything from accruals and journals to debtor chasing and invoice processing
* Help prepare reports and outputs from Excel-based systems
* Act as a flexible extra pair of hands — your role can be as broad as your availability allows

What you’ll need:

* Experience pulling together full management accounts
* Confidence handling stock, accruals, and Excel-heavy workflows
* Comfortable working with imperfect systems (they’re preparing for an ERP upgrade soon)
* A proactive mindset — someone inquisitive and curious, not just transactional
* Ideally qualified (but qualified by experience also considered)

What’s in it for you?

* A down-to-earth, supportive team led by a Finance Director who values flexibility
* The opportunity to work 2 to 4 days/week depending on your availability
* Flexibility on working hours- start early, finish early? No problem
* FTC salary of £40k–£45k (pro rata)- up to £50k for the right experience
* Immediate value to add, with the space to make it your own
* Hybrid options depending on fit

If you’re looking for a varied, people-first finance role in a sector that feeds the UK (literally), hit apply.
