Interim Finance Project Manager to Lead Commercial Rollout of a Global Fixed Asset Initiative

Your new company
Your new company is one of the world’s leading independent retailers, with a vast network of over 2,500 sites across the UK & Ireland, Continental Europe, Australia, and the United States. With a reputation for innovation and operational excellence, they are embarking on a strategic finance transformation initiative following the success of a recent pilot project.

Your new role
As Interim Finance Project Manager, you will take the lead on a high-impact finance project, working closely with a Fixed Asset Specialist to replicate a successful trial across the wider business. You’ll be responsible for managing a cross-functional project team, acting as a commercial business partner, and liaising with senior stakeholders across multiple regions.

This role requires a hands-on leader who can drive delivery, ensure alignment with business objectives, and support the transition of project outcomes into business-as-usual operations. There is strong potential for repeat engagements as this project model is rolled out across other business units.

What you'll need to succeed
  • Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent)
  • Proven experience leading finance transformation or fixed asset-related projects
  • Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to influence at senior levels
  • Commercial acumen and a collaborative, delivery-focused mindset
  • Experience in large, complex, multi-site or international businesses is highly desirable.

What you'll get in return
You will receive a salary up to £70,000 with good company benefits. You will see clear career progression opportunities from the outset whilst also joining one of the fastest-growing businesses in the North of England.
