Interim Financial Controller | £400-£450 per day | 3+ Months | SAP S/4HANA | Selby
Are you an experienced Financial Controller with hands-on SAP S/4HANA experience?
If you enjoy coming into a business during a period of change, getting stuck into financial accounting, strengthening the balance sheet, and helping deliver major transformation projects, this could be an excellent interim opportunity.
We're partnering with a growing business in the Selby area that is entering a significant period of change.
The business is in the middle of an SAP S/4HANA implementation, with go-live planned for November, while also preparing for the launch of a new facility next year.
They need an experienced Interim Financial Controller who can provide immediate support to the CFO, help stabilise the finance function, and play a key role in delivering the next phase of the business's transformation.
