Job Description

Management Accountant 6-Month Interim Contract

45,000 – 55,000 per annum

Immediate Start Based in Cupar

Are you a technically astute Management Accountant available for a high-impact, 6-month project? Can you operate with total autonomy, preparing monthly reporting and analysis? Are you looking for a senior-level interim role that offers a competitive salary and the chance to lead finance projects?

If so, this Management Accountant role in Cupar could be your next move.

The Opportunity

Nicholas Hendry is exclusively partnering with a prominent business in Cupar to appoint an experienced Management Accountant on a 6-month temporary basis. This is a pivotal hire designed to provide high-level support to the Finance Manager, freeing them up to focus on critical business-wide projects.

Key Responsibilities

  • Take full ownership of cashflow forecasting and budget management, providing detailed analysis to the board.
  • Act as the “right hand” to the Finance Manager, absorbing technical tasks and complex projects to allow for departmental growth.
  • Work technically and commercially with Directors and Department Heads, translating complex financial data into actionable insights.

The Ideal Candidate

You will likely be a Qualified Accountant (ACCA/CIMA/ICAS) or a highly experienced QBE with a track record in interim assignments. You must be comfortable working standalone and have the gravitas to liaise directly with senior Directors.

Requirements:

  • Proven experience in high-level cashflow management and budgeting.
  • Advanced Excel skills and the ability to adapt to new ERP systems quickly.
  • Immediate availability (or a very short notice period) is highly desirable.
