A leading SME in the agriculture sector, this business is gearing up for a key maternity cover hire in their finance team.

What you'll need:
- Experience pulling together full management accounts
- Confidence handling stock, accruals, and Excel-heavy workflows
- Comfortable working with imperfect systems (they're preparing for an ERP upgrade soon)
- A proactive mindset - someone inquisitive and curious, not just transactional
- Ideally qualified (but qualified by experience also considered)
What's in it for you?
- A down-to-earth, supportive team led by a Finance Director who values flexibility
- The opportunity to work 2 to 4 days/week depending on your availability
