Description:
You know your way around an SME. You're comfortable with ambiguity, close to the detail, and quick to build credibility with people who aren't finance professionals. This interim, part-time FC role was created for exactly that kind of operator.
Working directly with the MD and alongside existing senior finance support, you'll bring clarity around cash, job performance and financial controls at a critical time for the business. You'll be given real autonomy, genuine visibility, and the chance to make a tangible impact from day one.
What will the Interim Financial Controller role involve?
Produce clear, decision-focused management information tailored to MD level
Take ownership of cashflow forecasting across short, medium and longer-term horizons
Deliver meaningful insight into job and project profitability
Strengthen financial processes, controls and consistency across reporting
Maintain hands-on involvement in day-to-day finance, supported by a small admin team
Suitable candidate for the Interim Financial Controller vacancy:
Proven experience as a number 1 or 2 within an SME or owner-managed business
Strong track record in cashflow management and working capital control
Comfortable working in project-based or job-costing environments
Commercially astute, pragmatic and confident in challenging constructively
Calm, credible communicator who builds trust quickly with senior stakeholders
Additional benefits and information for the role of Interim Financial Controller:
Salary dependent on experience
Flexible part-time working (circa 1–3 days per week)
Opportunity to work closely with a highly engaged Managing Director
Immediate, hands-on impact within a close-knit SME environment
Interim assignment with potential for extension or permanent role
