NHS Interim Planning Accountant in England

Job description

NHS Interim Planning Accountant – Band 8c

South East | 3-month contract (possible extension) | Start date: 27th October | On-site 3 days/week - South East

Are you a strategic thinker with a strong NHS finance background? We’re on the lookout for a seasoned Planning Accountant to support a high-performing finance team with the development and delivery of long-term financial models and Trust-wide planning.

You'll play a vital role in shaping the 5-year financial plan, aligning it with clinical and operational strategies, while leading on key elements like sensitivity analysis, activity/financial triangulation, and scenario planning. Your insights will directly influence senior decision-makers through robust data, modelling, and benchmarking.

You’ll work cross-functionally, engaging with colleagues from Financial Management, Strategy, IM&T, HR and clinical teams – so confidence and clarity in communication is essential. NHS finance experience at a senior level is a must, alongside a full CCAB or equivalent qualification.

This is a hybrid role with a minimum of 3 days on-site across two key locations, depending on the workshop and meeting schedule.

WHY WORK WITH PRACTICUS?

We’ve been supporting the NHS with the provision of senior interims since 2004. We care about what we do as much as you care about what you do. If you feel you could help my client and the many people whose lives would be improved and enriched by the successful delivery of this portfolio, then I’d absolutely love to hear from you.

Please send your CV to Shristina Manandhar by clicking apply now if you have the skills and can start by the 27th October.
