Temporary Finance Business Partner

Robertson Bell are delighted to be supporting a well-known organisation currently undergoing a period of change as they recruit an Interim Finance Business Partner for a 6-month assignment. This role will play a vital part in bringing structure, clarity and insight to financial reporting and budget management at a time when the organisation is looking to improve processes and strengthen engagement with its budget holders.

Reporting to the Finance Director, you will take ownership of management reporting and budget cycles for half of the organisation, providing constructive challenge, actionable insights and a much-needed tidy-up of current processes. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys stepping into ambiguity, fixing inefficiencies and instilling financial discipline.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Producing monthly management reports with clear and meaningful commentary.
• Leading budgeting and reforecasting cycles for your designated departments.
• Acting as Finance Business Partner to senior operational stakeholders, building relationships and improving their financial understanding.
• Reviewing existing processes and taking a proactive approach to tidying up reporting and data.
• Supporting the Finance Director with improvement and transformation projects as the function evolves.
• Driving a culture of accountability around budgets, performance and financial ownership across the organisation.

The successful candidate will:

• Have established Finance Business Partnering experience, ideally within a complex organisation.
• Be confident working with senior non-finance stakeholders and providing constructive challenge.
• Thrive in environments that require problem-solving, tidying up, streamlining and improving ways of working.
• Be able to produce high-quality management information and budgeting outputs independently.
• Bring strong communication skills and the resilience to work through messy or unstructured processes.
• Be available at short notice for a 6-month interim contract.

Charity sector experience is not essential - personality, resilience and the ability to get a grip on the numbers quickly will be key to success in this role.

If you’re an experienced Finance Business Partner with a track record of bringing order to chaotic or evolving environments, we’d love to hear from you.
