The Finance Manager is a key role for the charity in ensuring their finances and accounts are managed in a timely, accurate and compliant manner. The Finance Manager will oversee the finance operations and lead on the preparation of management accounts, budgets, funding requests and internal and external reporting. The Finance Manager plays a crucial role in helping the Board and leadership team understand their performance and their ability to deliver an ambitious growth plan over the next five years.

This job presents a great opportunity for someone experienced with charity management accounting, operations and reporting who has a keen eye for detail and process improvement and a desire to be part of a charity that's only going to get bigger and more influential.

The role reports to our Chief Operating Officer but will work closely with the rest of the team, particularly our Fundraising and Research teams, and will regularly liaise with our Chief Executive and Board Treasurer. The role is supported by a Finance and Administration Officer who is responsible for the majority of the book-keeping and transaction management tasks.

Who we are looking for?

We are looking for someone with significant experience with charity finance operations, management accounts, reporting and budgeting. The role holder will be accountable for ensuring our accounts are compliant, accurate and all reports (internal or external) are produced in a timely and efficient manner. With our ambitious growth plans over the next five years, we are also looking for someone with the experience to support our fundraising and research teams with the financial aspects of trust, grant and partnership applications and approaches.

The Finance Manager will be a member of our lead management team and so will also contribute to the wider direction and delivery of our charitable objectives so a passion for our cause, and a desire to advance the work that we do as a charity is also really important.

While the role doesn't have direct line management responsibility, we are looking for someone who can oversee, guide and develop other team members who they will be working with regularly.

The Finance Manager is one of just three members of the Finance & Operations team, including the Chief Operating Officer and the Finance & Administration Officer. We're looking for someone dynamic and driven who likes to work autonomously, solve problems pragmatically and plan and organise their time effectively.

T he closing date for applications for this role is Friday 9 th May but we will shortlist applicants on a rolling basis. Interviews will be scheduled w/c 19th May.
