Interim Senior Financial Accountant – 6 months

A fast‑growing consumer brand is looking for an Interim Senior Financial Accountant to support their finance function during a period of continued expansion and systems change. Reporting to the Finance Manager, this role will play a key part in ensuring the integrity of financial reporting and supporting improvements across processes, controls and systems.

This is an opportunity to join a dynamic, product‑led business operating across both wholesale and e‑commerce channels, working closely with teams across operations, production, logistics and FP&A.

About the role:

  • Lead the month‑end close process, including journals, accruals, reconciliations and preparation of financial statements.
  • Act as the technical accounting expert, ensuring compliance with UK GAAP and internal policies.
  • Manage stock accounting, fixed assets, lease accounting (IFRS 16) and cash‑flow activities.
  • Perform detailed balance sheet reviews and ensure accuracy across all reconciliations.
  • Support process improvements, documentation of best practice and strengthening of internal controls.
  • Play a key role in the ERP implementation: UAT testing, integration with reporting, and supporting go‑live.
  • Prepare monthly and year‑end reporting and support audit requirements.
  • Manage VAT returns and broader tax compliance activity.
  • Collaborate with FP&A and operational teams to ensure accurate reporting of inventory, COGS and business performance.

About you:

  • Fully qualified accountant (ACA/ACCA/CIMA) with strong technical grounding.
  • Background in wholesale, e‑commerce, consumer products or similar environments is advantageous.
  • Experience working in a fast‑changing environment with exposure to process improvement and system changes.
  • Strong Excel and data‑handling capability.
  • Confident communicator able to partner cross‑functionally.

If you’re available immediately or at short notice and enjoy combining strong technical accounting with operational exposure, this is a great opportunity to add value in a high‑growth, internationally recognised brand.
