Your new company
A charitable organisation operating leisure services across the borough. The organisation plays a key role in improving health, wellbeing and cultural access for residents. Following recent changes within the finance team and a period of operational instability at a transactional level, they now need an experienced interim to bring structure, control, and consistency back into the function.
Your new role
As Interim Finance Manager / Finance Controller, you will report to the Finance Lead and work closely with the FP&A function to stabilise the day-to-day finance operations. This is a hands-on, process-driven role suited to a seasoned contractor who can step in quickly and add immediate value.
You will oversee transactional finance, manage daily cashflow activity, ensure journals are accurate, and drive the month-end and year-end timetable. You will also provide leadership to a small team and act as a steady hand during a period of transition. There is flexibility around hybrid working.
What you'll need to succeed
1. Qualified accountant (ACA/ACCA/CIMA) or strong QBE
2. A proven track record as a seasoned interim contractor
3. Strong transactional oversight and process-improvement capability
4. Experience of stabilising teams and tightening controls
5. Comfortable working at pace and resolving operational challenges
