My client is undertaking a major finance transformation programme through the implementation of OneAdvanced Financials (formerly e5 or eFinancials) a significant step forward in modernising the Council's finance systems and processes. As the project moves into its next phase, the Council is looking to appoint an experienced Interim Business Change Lead to drive engagement, adoption and business readiness across the organisation. Reporting to the Project Manager and working alongside an established project team, including a dedicated Finance Lead, this role will be instrumental in ensuring that colleagues across the Council understand the benefits of the new system and are prepared for the changes it will bring to the way they work. This is not a technical systems implementation role. Instead, the successful candidate will act as the bridge between the project team and the wider business, helping operational users understand how the new system will improve processes, streamline activities and support better ways of working. The Council is seeking an individual with outstanding stakeholder engagement and business partnering skills, capable of working closely with finance teams and operational users, particularly within areas such as Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable. The focus will be on leading conversations, managing change, building buy-in and promoting the benefits of the new system, rather than delivering technical training. Candidates are likely to be qualified accountants or finance professionals who have moved into business change, transformation or finance improvement roles. Previous involvement in a finance systems implementation, finance transformation programme or service redesign project is essential. A background within local government finance is highly desirable, and whilst experience of OneAdvanced Financials would be advantageous, it is by no means a prerequisite. Key Responsibilities Lead the business change workstream for the OneAdvanced Financials implementation. Build strong relationships with stakeholders across finance and operational services. Assess and communicate the impact of system changes on business processes and ways of working. Act as an ambassador for the project, promoting the benefits and opportunities presented by the new system. Support managers and end users through the change journey, addressing concerns and encouraging adoption. Develop and deliver communication and engagement plans. Drive business readiness activities ahead of system go-live. Work closely with the Project Manager, Finance Lead and wider project team to ensure successful delivery. Candidate Profile Strong local authority finance background. Qualified accountant or finance professional with experience beyond traditional finance responsibilities. Proven involvement in a finance system implementation, finance transformation or redesign programme. Excellent communication, influencing and stakeholder management skills. Demonstrable experience leading organisational change. Ability to engage effectively with users at all levels, from operational teams through to senior stakeholders. Organised, proactive and confident working within a project environment. The role can be offered on a remote or hybrid basis with a day rate of 650 to 700 a day, inside IR35.

Key responsibilities - Lead the transition from a shared-service finance model to a standalone finance function. - Design the target finance structure and recruit, lead and develop the team required to support it. - Establish fit-for-purpose systems, reporting processes, controls and governance. - Take hands-on ownership of the full finance cycle, including accounts payable, accounts receivable, payroll and management accounts. - Lead month-end and year-end close, ensuring timely, accurate and decision-useful reporting. - Manage cash flow forecasting, working capital and treasury activities with a strong focus on control and visibility. - Own the annual audit process and maintain an effective relationship with external advisers. - Develop budgets, forecasts, variance analysis, KPIs and management information. - Partner with operational and commercial leaders to improve profitability, margin control and business performance. - Provide clear financial insight and constructive challenge to the leadership team and board. About you You will be a pragmatic finance leader who enjoys building, improving and delivering. The successful candidate is likely to offer: - A recognised professional accounting qualification: ACA, ACCA or CIMA. - Proven experience of establishing or separating a finance function, ideally through a carve-out or comparable business transition. - Experience operating as a standalone Finance Director, or as a senior Financial Controller ready to step into a first Finance Director role. - A strong manufacturing, engineering, industrial or automotive finance background - Experience in a private equity-backed business or a similarly fast-paced, autonomous SME environment. - Strong cash management, forecasting, financial control and management reporting capability. - The willingness and technical confidence to remain hands-on while building the team and infrastructure around you. - Commercial judgement, resilience and the ability to influence senior operational stakeholders. Why consider this role? - A visible leadership position with genuine influence over the future shape of the business. - The opportunity to build a finance function, team and operating model rather than inherit a finished structure. - A broad remit combining financial control, operational finance and commercial partnership. - A clear route from an initial interim assignment into a permanent Finance Director appointment for the right person. Location and working pattern The role is based on-site in the Warwickshire area. Candidates should live within a sustainable commuting distance and be comfortable maintaining a strong on-site presence during the transition.
