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.

- 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.
