This is a focused interim role, primarily responsible for supporting the organisation through its year-end statutory accounts and audit process.

• Ensure statutory accounts and tax requirements are completed on time to support the timely receipt of Theatre Tax Relief.
• Ensure appropriate tax and company administration compliance across production entities.
• Oversee group, SPV and investor cash, including accurate reporting and forecasting. 

You will:

• Be a qualified accountant with a strong production finance background.
• Have experience producing year-end statutory accounts and supporting or leading an external audit.
• Ideally have worked within theatre, live entertainment or a similar production environment.
• Have a good understanding of the accounting and tax considerations associated with individual productions and SPVs.
• Theatre Tax Relief experience is highly desirable.
• Be comfortable joining at pace and independently managing year-end deliverables across multiple entities. 

What's on offer:

• Initial 3-month interim contract
• Flexible working arrangements 
• Opportunity to support a leading organisation through a critical year-end period
