Interim Finance Director | County Durham | 6-12 Month FTC | £120,000 – £140,000
Elevation Recruitment Group is supporting an acquisitive, fast-growing group in County Durham as they look for an Interim Finance Director for a 6-12 month contract.
The business has just completed an acquisition and needs an experienced FD to lead the integration and put proper financial infrastructure behind a group that’s scaling quickly.
This one’s for a specialist, not a generalist. You’ll need a background in infrastructure, construction, or another contract-driven sector, with hands‑on experience of long‑term contract accounting, project‑level cost capture, and WIP/stage‑of‑completion reporting. Without that, it won’t be a fit.
You’ll report directly into the Managing Director and sit close to the senior leadership team, with genuine influence over how the business runs. The owner is entrepreneurial and wants someone who’ll challenge as much as support – if you want a seat where your view actually shapes decisions, this is worth a look.
Day to day, you’ll be building the finance function from scratch: cost capture, management reporting, and timely, accurate management accounts that give the business real visibility as it grows. You’ll also work alongside a permanent Financial Controller hire, coaching them and handing over responsibilities as the function matures.
Based in County Durham, paying £120,000 – £140,000.
