Last year, 124,000 young people approached their council for help because they were homeless or at risk of homelessness. The figure has risen year-on-year for eight consecutive years, highlighting the scale of a challenge that continues to affect young people across the UK. Yet we believe the resources, expertise and influence already exist within the built environment sector to help tackle youth homelessness. That is where LandAid comes in.

We bring together the UK property industry, harnessing its capital, assets, skills and networks to help end youth homelessness. We do this by awarding grants to frontline charities, providing financial support, brokering free professional advice and expertise, and creating opportunities for our partners to make a meaningful difference to the lives of young people.

The Chief Financial and Operating Officer plays a critical role in helping us achieve our ambitions. A key member of the Leadership Team, you will ensure we have the financial insight, operational effectiveness and governance frameworks needed to deliver our strategy successfully. A key priority will be to provide high-quality management information, analysis and forecasting that supports confident decision-making across the organisation.

You will also help us continue to strengthen our internal operations, driving continuous improvement and ensuring our systems, processes and technology support a more efficient, evidence-led organisation. Working closely with our Board committees, you will oversee financial stewardship, risk management and governance, helping to ensure LandAid remains resilient and well positioned for future growth and impact. Beyond finance, you will oversee our outsourced HR and IT functions, ensuring we receive high-quality and cost-effective support and have robust systems and policies in place, while also helping us continue our commitment to being an excellent place to work.

We are looking for a qualified accountant who brings senior finance leadership experience, either at executive director level within an organisation of similar scale or at deputy director level within a larger organisation. Experience within the charity sector would be valuable, as would knowledge of the built environment, capital investment or social investment. Most importantly, we are looking for someone who combines technical expertise with a collaborative leadership style; someone colleagues trust, learn from and enjoy working with.

Diversity in all its forms matters to us, and we especially welcome applications from qualified women, people who are from black and minority communities, who are LGBTQ+, who live with a disability, and/or haven’t been privately educated.

Our people are our greatest asset and you would be joining an exceptional team united by a shared commitment to ending youth homelessness. If that mission resonates with you, we would love to hear from you.

Applications should include a CV and cover letter (no more than two pages), explaining your motivation for applying for the role, along with how you meet the Knowledge & Experience section of the Person Specification.

The role presents an opportunity to bring your core skills – including excellent written and verbal communication, research and analytical skills, relationship and project management – to help Breast Cancer UK grow sustainable and impactful income streams. We have been developing our corporate partnerships activity for several years and are now looking to take this programme to the next level, while introducing a proactive approach to raising funds from grant makers and high net worth individuals. In this role you can be part of something really exciting – honing existing areas of work, and building new income streams which have the ability to fuel organisational growth and drive down cases of breast cancer.
 
You will provide support across high value fundraising (corporate partnerships, trusts and foundations and major donors), getting the opportunity to develop your experience and confidence in these income streams. Working closely with the Head of Philanthropy and Partnerships, you’ll provide excellent account management for a portfolio of partnerships and donor relationships – delivering inspiring communications, creative engagement opportunities and ensuring that both the charity and the supporter benefit from the relationship. And you will make a significant contribution to new business – identifying funding and partnership opportunities, cultivating donor relationships and preparing high quality applications and proposals. 

To be successful in this role you’ll enjoy building relationships and collaborating with others – both externally and internally – to make things happen. You’ll be proactive and a problem-solver, able to spot opportunities and identify synergy. You’ll be highly organised, detail-focused and reliable – able to manage a diverse and fast-paced workload. And you will enjoy learning and developing new skills.
