Interim Manager à Grande-Bretagne

Contract: 6–9 months (Temp to Perm potential)
Location: Edinburgh (2–3 days per week onsite)
Start: ASAP

We are supporting a financial services organisation undergoing a period of significant change and are seeking a confident, commercially minded finance professional to join on an initial contract basis, with the potential for a permanent role thereafter.

This role sits within the FP&A and Management Reporting function and will play a key part in supporting the business through a busy period of transformation, including a new budgeting cycle, ledger change, company structure changes and the implementation of new planning tools.

Reporting into a senior finance leader within FP&A, this role will provide hands‑on support across management reporting, financial analysis and stakeholder interaction. It is a broad role requiring a blend of data processing, reporting accuracy, insight generation and commercial thinking.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Producing and enhancing management reporting packs, ensuring accuracy, clarity and insight
• Financial analysis to support business performance, decision‑making and forecasting
• Supporting budget and forecast cycles alongside regional and central FP&A teams
• Acting as a key interface across finance teams, including FP&A, reporting and forecasting functions
• Contributing to process improvements during periods of system and structural change (including planning tool implementation)
• Supporting and potentially line‑managing an offshore finance team over time
• Responding to ad‑hoc financial queries from senior stakeholders, including lender and investor‑related questions

This is not a pure business partnering role — the successful individual will be comfortable rolling up their sleeves and balancing reporting, analysis and insight delivery.

We are looking for a confident, delivery‑focused finance professional who can operate effectively in a fast‑moving environment.

You will ideally have:

• A recognised accounting qualification (ACA / ACCA / CIMA or equivalent)
• Experience in FP&A, management reporting or commercial finance
• Financial services experience is desirable but not essential
• Strong analytical capability combined with clear communication skills
• Confidence interfacing with stakeholders across finance and the wider business
• A pragmatic, hands‑on approach with strong attention to detail
• Availability to start quickly on a contract basis, with openness to permanent opportunities

Cultural fit is important — this role would suit someone adaptable, collaborative and comfortable navigating change.

• Opportunity to join during a critical and interesting period of transformation
• Broad, visible role with exposure to senior finance stakeholders
• Initial contract with genuine temp‑to‑perm potential
• Hybrid working with regular Edinburgh office presence
