About Designability
Designability is a national innovation charity advancing inclusive design across the UK.
The world is full of barriers for disabled people because society is not designed with everyone in mind. For disabled people, those barriers can take away things that everyone deserves: freedom, confidence, and opportunity.
But it doesn’t have to be that way — not if we design and build differently. And that’s where we come in.
By collaborating with disabled people, we dismantle unfair barriers and turn lived experience into practical, creative solutions that unlock everyday independence. From prototypes to sketches, and from problems to solutions, we engineer products and services that make the inaccessible accessible — and we help brands, other charities and designers do the same.
We are at an exciting point in our nearly 60-year history. We have launched our biggest ever research project — The Unfair Index — exploring everyday barriers disabled people face. We will be launching a new international award winning, world-first product — The Accessible Pushchair. And we continue to deliver our flagship service, the Wizzybug Scheme, providing free powered wheelchairs to very young disabled children across the UK.
The Role
We are seeking a highly organised individual to support the day-to-day administrative functions across finance and operations. This is a varied role suited to someone who is detail-oriented, commercially aware, and confident managing multiple priorities in a busy environment.
Key tasks
Finance
· Control and monitoring of the finance inbox
· Manage the purchase and sales ledgers, accurately processing all associated transactions

· Support and assist with month and year end processes

· Willing and able to undertake work outside normal hours and to travel as required
· Supporting and collaborating with colleagues across the organisation to achieve our charitable purpose
· Prepared to take on a range of tasks as needed to support the organisation’s work
About you
The successful candidate will have a natural aptitude for numbers, strong organisational skills, and the ability to work collaboratively across different areas of the business. This role requires a high degree of accuracy and attention to detail, helping to ensure that Designability remains compliant. You will be driven by achieving excellence in your work, underpinned by demonstrating Designability behaviours every day: Reflective, Tenacious, Collaborative, Curious and Honest.
