Full job descriptionYour new company
You will be joining a large, complex, contract-led infrastructure business, operating across major long-term frameworks. The organisation is PE-backed, commercially driven, and continues to invest heavily in its finance and commercial capability as its portfolio grows. Due to internal change and an expanding senior leadership remit, the business is now seeking an interim Management Accountant to ensure continuity and robustness across key contracts.
Your new role
You will join the finance team as a Management Accountant on an initial 6-month contract (with strong likelihood of extension), supporting a key water infrastructure project.

*Full management accounts production (end-to-end)
*Journals, accruals, and prepayments
*Full P&L ownership
*Balance sheet reconciliations
*WIP and deferred income
*Variance analysis, budgeting, and forecasting
*Cost-to-complete analysis
*Business partnering with operational and commercial teams
*Audit preparation and readiness
*Presenting financial outputs to senior stakeholders
What you’ll need to succeed
*QBE or qualified accountant
*Strong experience in management accounting within a project or contract environment
*Ability to manage the full accounting cycle independently
*Strong Excel skills
*Experience with Oracle NetSuite (or similar ERP systems)
*Understanding of project accounting principles
*Confident communicator with experience presenting to senior finance stakeholders
What you’ll get in return
*£300 per day (inside IR35)
*Initial 6-month contract with strong extension potential
*Hybrid working (1 day onsite)
*Opportunity to work on a large-scale infrastructure project within a collaborative finance team
