Overview
We are seeking an experienced Interim Finance Director to provide steady, hands-on financial leadership during a key period for the organisation.
This is not a transformation or change-management assignment. Instead, we are looking for a strong operational finance leader who can provide stability, maintain high standards across the finance function, and act as a trusted partner to the leadership team.
The successful candidate will be direct, approachable, and comfortable operating in a highly visible role within an SME environment.
Key Responsibilities
Lead and develop a finance team of five.
Ensure the delivery of accurate and timely management information.
Drive forecasting accuracy and provide meaningful financial insight.
Maintain strong cash management and working capital oversight.
Support effective cost control across the organisation.
Oversee a complex month-end process covering six legal entities.
Produce and present board-level financial reporting.
Act as a steady and reliable point of contact for both finance and non-finance stakeholders.
Maintain robust financial controls and governance processes.
Support business-as-usual finance operations while ensuring continuity and stability.
Candidate Profile
We are particularly interested in individuals who have previously operated as a Finance Director or senior finance leader within an SME environment.
You will bring:
Proven experience leading finance teams.
Strong forecasting, budgeting and reporting expertise.
Excellent cashflow and cost management capability.
Experience managing complex month-end processes.
Confidence working directly with senior stakeholders and boards.
A pragmatic, hands-on approach.
The ability to quickly establish credibility and trust.
Nice to Have
Financial modelling experience.
Experience redesigning or enhancing board reporting packs and management information.
Exposure to multi-entity structures.
The Right Fit
This role will suit a experienced Finance Director who enjoys running a well-functioning finance operation and providing calm, dependable leadership.
We are not seeking someone to come in and fundamentally transform the business. The focus is on maintaining momentum, providing confidence in the numbers, supporting the team, and ensuring finance continues to operate effectively throughout the assignment.
Shortlists will be reviewed from close of business on the 16th.
