About the role
We’re looking for an experienced Finance Business Partner to join a division of a leading UK infrastructure and rail services group on a six-month interim basis.

* Challenging and supporting Project and Commercial Managers on contract performance, WIP, margin, cost-to-complete and risk
* Producing clear, decision-useful reporting for divisional leadership and supporting the wider group reporting cycle
* Driving improved financial discipline, cash focus and commercial awareness out in the business
What we’re looking for
* A qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with strong post-qualification business partnering experience
* Demonstrable track record in a project- or contract-based environment - rail, construction, infrastructure, engineering or related sectors
* Confident engaging with operational teams on site and translating site reality into financial insight
* Strong forecasting, modelling and month-end credentials, with the credibility to challenge senior stakeholders constructively
* Comfortable working independently in an interim capacity and adding value from week one
* Full UK driving licence and willingness to travel to sites in London and Suffolk during the initial period
What’s on offer
* Hybrid working once the initial site engagement is complete
* Opportunity to embed within a high-profile infrastructure portfolio
