An opportunity for a candidate with a good level of book-keeping, accounting, and administration skills, who would like to build their experience by working at a growing international not-for-profit organisation and be part of a small, dynamic team at the heart of global sustainability.

About the Role

As Finance & Administration Executive, you will work with the Finance & Risk Manager on all aspects of the finance function (approx. 80% time).

• Provide administration to the Chief Executive Officer and the wider team
• Assist with organisation and logistics of internal/external events and meetings 
• Support the organisation of governance meetings, including Board of Director meetings, Sub-Committee meetings and Members Council meetings.
