We are looking for an Interim Junior Financial Controller to join our finance team on a temporary basis. This is a minimum 6-month assignment (with possible extension), starting mid-November/early December, for 24 hours per week.

• Carry out daily accounting activities (processing transactions, bookkeeping, invoice handling, and related administrative tasks);

• Assist with actual vs. budget analysis;

• Assist during the annual audit — including rolling forward working papers, preparing sample documentation, and responding to auditor requests;

• Help maintain accurate books and clean documentation to keep daily accounting and month-end processes running smoothly;

• Support ad hoc financial analysis and reporting as needed;

• Contribute to continuous improvement of financial processes and documentation.

We’d love to meet you if you have/are:

• Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, Economics, or a related field (or working towards a professional qualification such as ACCA/CIMA);

• 1–2+ years of experience in accounting, bookkeeping, or financial administration;

• Comfortable with daily bookkeeping/accounting tasks and eager to also gain exposure to reporting and audit work;

• Basic understanding of month-end processes and financial reporting concepts;

• Good Excel skills (formulas, pivot tables) and general comfort with accounting software;

• Organised, reliable, and comfortable working closely with and taking direction from a Financial Controller;

• Strong communication skills and fluent in English;

• Available for a minimum 6-month assignment, starting mid-November/early December;
