Financial / Management Accountant

Interim Management / Financial Accountant (6-Month Contract)
Location: Manchester (Hybrid - 1 day a week in office)

I'm supporting a Housing Association in recruiting an Interim Management / Financial Accountant to join their small and collaborative finance team on an initial six-month contract.

This is a hands-on role that will support the finance team through month and year-end while also helping to improve financial processes and systems. You'll be comfortable working across management accounting as well as providing support with accounts payable and receivable where needed.

Responsibilities

• Produce management accounts and provide financial support throughout the year-end process.
• Assist with statutory returns, reconciliations and year-end financial reporting.
• Support and improve Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable processes, providing cover and guidance where required.
• Review and support the redesign of processes, identifying opportunities to improve financial reporting.

Requirements

• Qualified or qualified by experience Management / Financial Accountant (ACCA, CIMA, ACA or equivalent).
• Previous experience working in housing, local government, ALMO or a similar public sector environment is highly desirable.
• A proactive, hands-on approach with the ability to work independently within a small finance team.

This is an excellent opportunity for a finance professional looking for an interesting interim assignment where they can make an immediate impact while supporting a key period for the organisation.
