Interim Group Financial Accountant (12–24 Month Contract)

Location: Crawley (Hybrid – 3 Days in Office)

Core Hours: 10am–4pm

A leading international organisation with operations in over 15 countries is undergoing a significant strategic transformation—realigning to focus on high-growth, high-impact sectors. At the heart of this journey is a high-performing Group Finance function, driving change through insight, accuracy, and technical excellence.

You'll join the Group Finance team during a critical period of change. Working closely with the Group Financial Controller and alongside a fellow Group Financial Accountant, you’ll be instrumental in ensuring accurate and timely reporting across all entities. This is a highly visible role where your technical expertise will directly influence business decisions.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the group’s multi-currency consolidation process across monthly, interim, and year-end cycles, as well as for forecasting and budgeting.
• Prepare statutory financial statements and contribute to the financial sections of interim and annual reports, ensuring all tax disclosures are accurate and compliant.
• Serve as a primary contact for external auditors to support efficient audit processes.
• Ensure full compliance with IFRS and maintain up-to-date group accounting policies.
• Provide technical accounting advice and guidance on complex issues including disposals and impairments.
• Oversee the operation and development of the Group’s reporting systems (Cognos).
• Perform accounting tasks at the Group level related to IFRS 16 leases, share-based payments, and ECL modelling.

About You:

• Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, or equivalent).
• Demonstrable experience in multi-currency group consolidations and technical accounting.
• Strong understanding of IFRS and hands-on experience with complex reporting requirements.
• Systems-savvy, with prior exposure to consolidation/reporting tools (experience with Cognos is a plus).
• Commercially aware, detail-oriented, and comfortable operating in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
• Prior experience with business disposals or restructuring activities.
• Working knowledge of Cognos, or similar financial reporting systems.
