3-month contract
£300-320 per day via umbrella (inside IR35)
Syntro Partners is delighted to be partnering with a premium consumer brand to appoint an Interim Finance Manager on an initial three-month contract.
The business has recently appointed a new permanent Finance Director, who will be joining later in the year. As a result, they are seeking an experienced finance professional to provide leadership, stability and continuity to the finance function during the transition period.
This is not a strategic transformation role or an Interim FD assignment. Instead, we’re looking for a hands-on, commercially minded individual who can quickly get under the skin of the business, support the existing team and ensure everything continues to run smoothly.
The Role
Key responsibilities will include:
*Overseeing the day-to-day running of the finance function
*Leading and supporting a small finance team
*Managing month-end close and reporting processes
*Overseeing payment runs, cash management and working capital
*Acting as a key point of contact for the wider business during a period of transition
*Supporting and mentoring the existing finance team
*Delivering a smooth handover into the incoming permanent Finance Director
About You
To be successful in this role, you will likely be:
*A qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA)
*Operating at Finance Manager or FC level within an SME environment
*Comfortable in a hands-on role and able to quickly establish credibility
*Calm, pragmatic and capable of bringing stability during periods of change
*Experienced within retail, fashion, consumer or ecommerce businesses (strongly preferred)
*Available to start no later than Monday 27th July 2026
What’s on Offer?
*Opportunity to work with a highly regarded and growing consumer brand
*Hybrid working arrangement
*Immediate impact and responsibility
*Competitive day rate of £500-550 per day via umbrella (Inside IR35)
*Initial three-month assignment, with potential flexibility depending on business requirements
If you’re an experienced finance professional who enjoys stepping into businesses, providing stability and helping teams navigate periods of change, we’d love to hear from you.
To apply, please submit your CV for immediate consideration. Due to the volume of applications, we may not be able to respond to every candidate. If you do not hear from us within 14 days, please assume your application has been unsuccessful on this occasion.
