We are currently working with a well-established business in Cwmbran who are looking to bring in a solid, qualified accountant on a temporary basis to support their Financial Controller through a busy Year End period. This is a hands-on role, ideal for an ACCA / CIMA qualified accountant who is comfortable rolling up their sleeves and getting into the detail.

- Preparing and reviewing balance sheet reconciliations
- Investigating, resolving, and clearing balance sheet and P&L variances
- Assisting with journals, accruals, and prepayments
- Supporting audit preparation, including providing schedules and explanations
- Working closely with different departments to understand figures, challenge anomalies, and resolve issues
- Liaising confidently with operational managers and wider finance team
- Ensuring financial data is accurate, complete, and well-documented
- Supporting process improvements where gaps or inefficiencies are identified
About You
- ACCA or CIMA qualified (or equivalent)
- Strong technical accounting background
- Proven experience supporting Year End in a fast-paced environment
- Confident working with balance sheets and reconciliations
- Comfortable being hands-on and detail-focused
- Strong communication skills and happy to work cross-functionally
- Experience using Microsoft Business Central (highly desirable)

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced accountant looking for a short-term assignment where they can add real value during a critical period.
