A growing and innovative technology business is seeking an experienced Interim Financial Accountant to support a critical year-end and audit period. This is a hands‑on assignment suited to a technically strong accountant who can quickly take ownership of outstanding financial accounting work and deliver results with minimal supervision.

This role is focused on pure statutory accounting, year‑end accounts preparation and audit support rather than broader commercial finance responsibilities.

  • Prepare and review balance sheet reconciliations
  • Support external audit processes and liaise with auditors
  • Assist with financial reporting requirements
  • Resolve technical accounting issues as they arise
  • Provide additional resource during a busy reporting period
  • Work autonomously and quickly assess priorities

About You

  • ACA or ACCA qualified
  • Strong background in pure statutory accounting
  • Proven year‑end accounts preparation experience
  • Experience supporting external audits
  • Strong balance sheet reconciliation skills
  • Able to work independently with minimal handover
  • Comfortable operating in a fast‑paced and evolving environment
  • Available immediately or at short notice

What’s on Offer?

  • Up to £30 per hour
  • Hybrid working arrangement with 3 days in the Exeter office and 2 days working from home
  • 37.5-hour working week
  • Opportunity to support a growing technology business during a key reporting period
  • Immediate start with an assignment running through to January 2027
