Interim to permanent opportunity
I am exclusively supporting a complex, purpose-led organisation in Hertfordshire on the appointment of a Senior Management Accountant to join their finance team on an interim basis, with strong potential for the role to become permanent.
This is a highly visible role, partnering closely with senior stakeholders across the organisation and supporting the financial management of complex projects and funding streams.
The successful candidate will play a key role across:
* Management accounting
* Budgeting and forecasting
* Project and grant accounting
* Financial analysis and business partnering
* Sponsor and funder reporting
* Financial governance and compliance
* Supporting strategic financial decision making
The organisation is seeking a qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA or equivalent) with strong stakeholder engagement skills and previous experience operating within complex environments.
Grants/funding experience is essential for this role, alongside previous exposure within research, education, charity, public sector or similarly funded organisations.
You will also ideally demonstrate:
* Strong management accounting and forecasting capability
* Experience supporting complex projects or portfolios
* Excellent Excel and systems skills
* Strong communication and stakeholder management
* Previous mentoring or leadership exposure
This is an excellent opportunity for someone seeking a role which combines meaningful stakeholder engagement, financial insight and long-term career potential within a collaborative environment.
