Interim Head of Finance

£70k per annum
Temporary, Internship

Interim Head of Finance - Plymouth / Hybrid - Up to: £70,000

Trial Balance Consulting are delighted to have been exclusively re-engaged by a long standing client; a highly successful specialist services business delivering a high quality product range to customers throughout the UK. The company seeks to recruit an experienced Head of Finance to join them as soon as possible, initially on a 12 month fixed term contract but with some potential for review and/or extension. The role is offered on a full time basis and this employer promotes a generous hybrid working scheme with the potential to perform the role remotely for up to 50% of the working week.

Working closely alongside the company’s experienced CFO and supervising a small transactional team, this will be broad and varied role where the successful incumbent will assume the finance-number-two position of an efficient and pro-active accounting function. The role will encompass both operational financial control and assist in the delivery of management information to assist with strategy management. Key responsibilities to include: 

- Lead, develop and mentor a growing finance team 

-  Financial planning and analysis 

- Budgeting and cash management/forecasting 

- Compile high quality management accounts with accompanying commentary 

- Ensure high quality, compliant statutory reporting and annual financial statements 

- Oversee several key aspects of the annual audit process 

- Develop and streamline internal financial controls and procedures 

- Act as a key point of contact for external stakeholders - banks, auditors, external shareholders etc. 

Who we’re looking for: A technically and commercially astute individual, the successful candidate will be a qualified individual (ACA/ACCA/CIMA), and probably possess five years+ PQE gained in a commercial environment. It is highly likely that this person will have trained and qualified in practice and their CV will demonstrate impressive career development towards a similar position. A naturally people focussed professional, the HoF will lead by example, supporting the company’s history of supporting and developing staff from within. The CFO and SMT are openminded and appreciate that the recruitment market place is trickier than usual, so there is no box ticking exercise to complete here, they simply seek a committed, talented and broadminded accountant with genuine motivation to develop. 

Intrigued? We hope so. It’s a candidate market out there, but this opportunity is a stand-out. For further details including a detailed company brief, please contact Elle Benjamin with reference EB10242 ASAP. All enquiries treated in the strictest of confidence.
