Job Description

Talent Finance are working with a growing SME based near Salisbury who are looking to bring in an Interim Finance Manager / Company Accountant for an initial 2-3 month contract.

The business is currently going through a confidential acquisition and needs an experienced, hands on finance professional to support the team during this period. This isn't a corporate M&A role.

• Assisting with due diligence requests and information gathering

• Working with external advisers and accountants as required

• Producing management accounts, cashflow information and other finance reporting

• Helping with budgeting, forecasting and general financial analysis

• Supporting the wider business where needed in a typical SME environment

• Occasional involvement in administrative areas such as HR and Health & Safety

• Previous experience as a Finance Manager, Company Accountant or similar

• Experience working within an SME environment

• Exposure to acquisitions, due diligence or business transactions would be highly beneficial

• Comfortable operating in a broad, hands on role

• Able to work independently and hit the ground running

• Qualified, part qualified or qualified by experience

• Immediate start preferred

• Hybrid working

• Based near Salisbury, Wiltshire

• Initial 2-3 month contract
