About the role
As Finance Officer, you’ll play a vital part in keeping Plantlife’s financial operations running smoothly and accurately. Working closely with the Senior Finance Officer, you’ll take responsibility for the day‑to‑day processing that underpins our financial integrity—from coding invoices and preparing weekly payment runs to maintaining clear, well‑organised records and supporting month‑end routines.
You’ll work across multiple systems, help reconcile income from our CRM, and ensure colleagues have the information they need to manage their budgets confidently. This is a hands‑on role where accuracy, curiosity and a willingness to learn really matter.
You’ll be supported to build your skills, develop your understanding of charity finance and grow into more complex tasks over time, including restricted funds, audit preparation and process improvement.
If you’re looking for a role where you can deepen your finance experience, contribute to a mission‑driven organisation and be part of a friendly, collaborative remote team, this is a great opportunity to take the next step in your career.
About you
You’ll bring a strong eye for detail and a commitment to getting things right first time.
You’re confident working with numbers, comfortable navigating different systems and able to follow established processes with accuracy and care. You can manage your own workload, stay organised and use your initiative to solve routine problems or spot when something doesn’t look quite right.
At the same time, you’re a team player who communicates clearly, asks questions when needed and enjoys working with colleagues across the organisation. You don’t need to know everything on day one—what matters most is your willingness to learn, your reliability and your enthusiasm for supporting a smooth, well‑run finance function.
