The Assistant Finance and Operations Manager is a new role for The Christie Charity (Charity) and a fantastic opportunity for an individual looking to work for a fast moving, growing organisation. We are looking for an enthusiastic individual to take ownership in the finance team for day-to-day transactional processing for The Christie Charity group. This position provides an excellent opportunity to develop an understanding of charity and commercial finance. You will play a key role in supporting robust financial controls across the Charity group.
This is a hands-on role with responsibility for coordinating and overseeing day-to-day transactional activity undertaken by the Finance Officers, including purchase-to-pay, supplier payments, accounts receivable, banking, income reconciliation, corporate credit cards and other routine financial processes. The postholder will ensure work is completed accurately and within required timescales, review key reconciliations and outstanding items, and provide support and guidance to the Finance Officers where issues arise. They will remain actively involved in transactional processing where required, particularly in relation to more complex matters, periods of high workload and the transition of activities into the Charity.
The postholder will act as the first point of escalation for transactional matters which cannot be readily resolved by the Finance Officers and as a key point of contact for routine finance queries from external third parties. They will work closely with colleagues across the Charity to ensure financial processes operate effectively while maintaining appropriate controls and segregation of duties.
The Assistant Finance and Operations Manager will be an important day-to-day user of the Charity's finance and purchase-to-pay systems and will take a lead operational role in ensuring these systems are used consistently and effectively. The postholder will support Finance Officers and wider Charity colleagues with system and process queries, monitor compliance with agreed financial procedures and identify recurring issues or opportunities to improve processes. Working with the Charity Financial Controller and Funds and Finance Business Partner, they will contribute to the continued development of efficient, proportionate and well-controlled financial processes across the Charity group.
Additional information
Upon joining The Christie Charity, day-to-day financial transaction processing will continue to be delivered by The Christie NHS Foundation Trust during the initial months of the role, therefore, the postholder will be expected to work closely and collaboratively with their finance team to ensure seamless operations and continuity across the Charity group.
These functions are anticipated to transfer to the Charity group with the postholder taking ownership of these responsibilities within the first 3 months in role. The postholder will be expected to work autonomously to ensure the smooth transition of activities to the Charity.
This post would suit an individual who enjoys working in a dynamic, evolving environment, where responsibilities may shift in response to organisational priorities. The postholder must be comfortable navigating ambiguity, demonstrating flexibility, initiative, and a proactive approach to problem-solving.
The postholder will also provide support to the team on an ad-hoc basis as required.
The postholder will complete a shift approximately every four to six weeks at the Charity’s hub in Withington to support charitable activity at The Christie NHS Foundation Trust.
When submitting your application, please provide the following:
- A cover letter; and
- An up-to-date CV (up to two A4 pages) with evidence of accountancy qualification(s) and current membership of any relevant professional accountancy body or bodies if relevant. These can be uploaded as one PDF.
Please note that applications must include all of the documents listed above and will be reviewed on a rolling basis. Applications that do not meet these guidelines may not be considered.
Interviews will be held all day on Monday 21 September 2026 and on Tuesday 22 September 2026. Applicants are strongly encouraged to keep these dates available where possible.

This organisation is using Anonymous Recruitment to reduce bias in the first stages of the hiring process. Submit your application as normal and our system will anonymise it for you. Your personal information will be hidden until the recruiter contacts you.
We are seeking a self-motivated Member Support and Administrative Assistant to play a key role in our friendly team. The successful candidate will liaise with colleagues across the organisation focused on membership, communications, marketing and delivery, and as a result get invaluable insight into these functions. Once established in post the successful candidate will also benefit from our nine-day fortnight working pattern (providing a long weekend twice a month).
Background Information
PSHE (personal, social, health and economic) education is the school curriculum subject that prepares pupils for life and work. PSHE lessons cover some of the most pressing issues facing young people today including mental and physical health, relationships, staying safe online, economic wellbeing, careers and the importance of equality and diversity.
The PSHE Association is the national body for the subject. A charity and membership organisation, the Association supports a national network of over 50,000 teachers and schools with resources, training and guidance. We work nationally to raise PSHE standards for all children and raise its status on the curriculum. This includes working in partnership with a range of leading charities, government bodies, corporates and other partners. This is an exciting time for us and we are expanding our services to meet growing demand.
Role description
The applicant will be expected to take on a variety of responsibilities associated with supporting our national membership of PSHE education teachers and other professionals. This will include fielding phone and emailed member queries in a timely and friendly fashion and logging queries and activities on our membership database. The role will also include supporting the organisation and administration of the office, including processing memberships and payments, and maintaining and updating our database of contacts, supporting online training event bookings and logistics as well as supporting the team as required.
Please see below for a full Job Description and Person Specification
Terms of Reference
The post is offered on a full time basis, on a permanent contract with a six-month probationary period. The salary will be £28,500.
At the PSHE Association, we believe in a healthy work-life balance. That is why we offer a nine-day fortnight working pattern, giving our team every other Friday off (in other words a long weekend twice a month). We believe this gives employees more time to recharge and more time for what matters to them. This shorter working week benefit (equivalent to 32 hours per week on full pay) kicks in once employees have successfully completed three months of their probationary period, with a standard 35-hour working week in place up until that point.
Our offices are based in central London, close to Russell Square, and this is where the role will be primarily based alongside some days of the week working from home.
How to apply
To apply please send a CV and covering letter using Charity Job by Monday 7th September at 9AM.
Shortlisted candidates will be invited to attend a first round interview on Thursday 17th September on Zoom. There will also potentially be a second round interview held face to face on the week of Monday 21st September in our London office.
The cover letter is an important part of the process, and we will not consider any applications without a cover letter attached. This letter should provide an overview and personal reflections about why you meet the criteria and how your skills and experience are applicable. We therefore request that no AI tools are used in its composition.
