ACA Accountant

Your new company

A well-established construction firm with a strong reputation for delivering high-quality projects across the commercial, residential, and infrastructure sectors is seeking a newly qualified accountant to join their finance team on a 6-month interim basis. This hybrid role is based in central London and offers an exciting opportunity to gain industry experience in a dynamic environment.

Your new role

The company is looking for a newly qualified accountant (ACA) making their first move from practice, ideally someone who is immediately available. You’ll be supporting the finance function with responsibilities including:

  • Preparing financial statements in line with industry standards
  • Forecasting project costs and revenues across multiple sites
  • Assisting with budget preparation and monitoring construction spending
  • Investigating and resolving accounting discrepancies
  • Conducting financial risk assessments related to project delivery
  • Supporting month-end and year-end close processes

What you'll need to succeed

You’ll be a fully qualified ACA accountant with a background in practice. Strong communication and collaboration skills are essential, especially when working with project managers and site teams. You’ll have a keen eye for detail and the ability to resolve reconciliation issues efficiently. Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint is required, and experience with construction accounting systems or project-based finance is a plus. A proactive attitude and willingness to learn will help you thrive in this role.

What you'll get in return

  • Competitive day rate
  • Opportunity to apply your skills in a fast-paced, project-driven industry
  • Exposure to industry-specific financial processes and systems
  • Hybrid working arrangement with a collaborative team culture
