In brief
Context, approach, next step
A vacancy during the closing period
An unfilled role between October and March puts pressure on the year-end close, group reporting and audit preparation.
Interim finance services
Under a services contract, we take on finance director or controller responsibilities for 3–12 months.

How to cover the gap
Our guide to vacant finance roles and a 60-minute conversation.
Options to cover the gap
The responsibilities can be temporarily redistributed within the team, taken on under an interim finance services contract, or outsourced for a specific activity, such as the year-end close. Each option has a different cost and a different risk for the reporting calendar.
Under the services contract, Mazilu & Partners takes on the agreed responsibilities and is responsible for the work performed; we do not second staff or recruit.
