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.


The Role
This is a hands-on Financial Controller role with a strong focus on financial accounting, balance sheet integrity, systems implementation, and supporting the wider finance transformation.


Reporting directly to the CFO, you’ll provide an experienced pair of hands during a period of significant change.


Key responsibilities will include:
*Supporting the SAP S/4HANA implementation and preparing the finance function for go-live
*Taking ownership of financial accounting and balance sheet activity
*Reviewing and strengthening balance sheet controls and reconciliations
*Supporting the wider finance team through a period of change
*Helping implement new processes and ways of working
*Supporting the CFO with wider transformation projects
*Preparing the finance function for future growth and increased operational complexity
*Providing hands-on Financial Controller support across the business as required
*Hybrid, with 2-3 days on-site required


This is not a role for someone who wants to sit back and simply oversee the numbers.


You’ll be coming into a relatively lean finance team and will need to quickly understand what needs doing, take ownership, and get stuck in.


What We’re Looking For
The key requirement is hands-on SAP S/4HANA experience.


You’ll ideally have:
*Previous Financial Controller experience
*Experience working with SAP S/4HANA
*Strong financial accounting and balance sheet experience
*Experience improving processes and controls
*The ability to operate independently during periods of change
*A hands-on, sleeves-rolled-up approach
*Strong stakeholder management skills


Manufacturing experience would be beneficial, particularly for someone who understands the financial implications of moving into a more complex operational environment, but it isn’t essential.


Why Join?
This is a genuinely meaty interim assignment with plenty to get stuck into.


*Play a key role in an SAP S/4HANA implementation
*Work directly alongside a newly appointed CFO
*Help shape the finance function during a major period of transformation
*Broad role spanning financial accounting, controls, systems, and process improvement
*Opportunity to support a business as it enters a new phase operationally
*Potential for the role to develop into a longer-term or permanent opportunity
*Flexible working pattern, with hybrid working available


If you’re an experienced interim Financial Controller with SAP S/4HANA experience and enjoy transformation environments, hit apply.
