Wakefield, West Yorkshire

We’re looking for a commercially-minded accountant to join our team on a 12-month maternity cover contract, with the potential to develop into a long-term opportunity.

This is a fantastic role for someone who enjoys partnering with the business, delivering insightful financial analysis, and building strong relationships with colleagues across both finance and non-finance teams. You’ll play a key role in supporting decision-making and helping drive performance — an excellent stepping stone towards a fully-fledged Business Partner role.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Preparing management accounts, budgets, and forecasts.

  • Producing variance analysis and clear, insightful financial commentary.

  • Supporting profitability reviews and balance sheet reconciliations.

  • Getting involved in commercial proposals and identifying process improvements.

What we’re looking for:

  • Proven experience preparing the full set of accounts.

  • A confident, outgoing personality — comfortable building relationships with senior non-finance stakeholders.

  • Strong Excel skills and a good head for working with data.

If you’re looking for a role where you can add value, grow your business partnering skills, and work in a collaborative, commercial environment — we’d love to hear from you.
