Key skills for interim finance professionals
Interim CFO day rates in the UK range from £900-1,400 per day, with London commanding the highest rates. Based on typical utilisation of 180-200 days per year, annual earnings range from £160,000-£280,000. Rates vary based on sector, company size, and complexity of the assignment.
Most interim finance roles require a professional qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, or equivalent). For senior roles like CFO or Finance Director, 15+ years experience with significant time at board level is typical. Big 4 training is valued but not essential. Sector-specific experience often commands premium rates.

Contract roles tend to be more operational, often charged hourly, and focus on delivery rather than strategy. Interim assignments are usually 3-12 months; contracts may extend longer.
