Accounting and Finance

The UK accountancy and finance industry has traditionally relied on temporary contract and interim managers to resource its needs within London particularly the city. In addition large enterprises have relied on the flexibility of contractors to meet their resourcing needs.

Demand for professional staff will vary seasonally and with tax years and financial year ends across the many financial institutions and large enterprise plc’s.

The type of staff required starts with clerical staff (purchase ledger, sales ledger, credit controllers etc. and includes accounts assistants, part qualified accountants, newly qualified accountants, and qualified accountants with 2-5years experience and qualified accountants and auditors with 5+years experience.

For those with large enterprise experience (at least 2 years) there are substantial opportunities in the city or with many of the large Plc’s in London and the South East. Whilst the smaller companies many of whom will have project requirements should not be ignored. Above all the successful contractor has to have good client facing communication skills and a flexible approach to their work.
