This is a rare chance to build the financial tooling a high-profile organisation runs on, working directly alongside its senior finance leader. The Role This is an interim engagement of around four to six months, working closely alongside the organisation's senior finance leader rather than reporting into a large team. The brief is specific: build an integrated three-statement model and rebuild and document a batch of the organisation's financial models so that the knowledge currently held by one person is embedded in the tooling itself.
