We match the right person to your business, your team and the job in hand, and we set it up on terms that suit you.
Every accountancy and finance role, covered.
Whatever the level and whatever the brief, we can provide temporary or interim cover across the full finance function, including:
- Transactional finance: purchase ledger, sales ledger, credit control, accounts assistants, payroll
- Part-qualified and qualified accountants: assistant accountants, management accountants, financial accountants, project accountants
- Specialist roles: systems accountants, tax, audit, business partners, financial analysts

Temporary or interim: what's the difference?
Temporary cover keeps your finance operation running. Whether it's a gap in the team, a peak in workload or a role you need filled while you recruit permanently, our temps step in and keep things moving.
Interim professionals bring senior expertise for a defined period. They lead change, deliver projects and fill critical leadership gaps, from system implementations and restructures to acquisitions and turnarounds. Experienced, hands-on and focused on results.
Flexible terms that work for you.
Every business is different, so we give you a choice in how you engage your temporary or interim hire.
Pay by day rate or weekly timesheet
Interim professionals and contractors can be engaged on an agreed day rate, while temporary staff typically work on weekly timesheets. You only pay for the time worked, with clear, agreed rates from the outset and no surprises.

Option 1: On our payroll
We take care of everything. Your temp or contractor works on the Sewell Wallis payroll, and we handle their pay, timesheets and the admin that comes with it. You receive a single, simple invoice and get on with running your business.
Benefits of this option include:
- No payroll admin for your team
- Straightforward invoicing based on approved timesheets or days worked
- Flexibility to extend or end the assignment as your needs change
Option 2: On your payroll
Prefer to employ them directly? No problem. Your temporary or interim hire can join your own payroll, and you simply pay us an introductory fee. You get access to our network and our expertise in finding the right person, with the person working directly for you from the start.
Benfits of this option include:
- Engage your hire directly as part of your team
- A one-off introductory fee rather than ongoing charges
- Ideal for longer assignments or where you'd prefer to manage pay in-house
