• Build dashboards that help managers make better decisions.

• Lead the annual audit process.
• Line manage and develop our Finance Assistants.
• Help build a finance function fit for the future.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who enjoys making organisations better.

You’ll probably have experience of:

• Charity finance.
• Management accounting.
• Budgeting and forecasting.
• Audit preparation.
• Financial controls.
• Cloud accounting systems (Xero experience is highly desirable).
• Leading change and improving systems.
• Supporting non-finance managers.
• Working collaboratively with senior leaders and Trustees.

Most importantly, you’ll be someone who enjoys solving problems, embracing technology and helping organisations grow.

The Role

Your responsibilities will include:

You'll ideally have:

• At least 2 years' HR experience, including significant exposure to TUPE.
• Previous experience as an HR Advisor or similar generalist HR role with regular TUPE involvement.
• Strong understanding of UK TUPE legislation and practical application.
• Employee Relations experience would be highly advantageous.
• Experience working within a large, fast-paced commercial organisation, ideally where TUPE projects are frequent.
• Excellent organisational and stakeholder management skills.
• CIPD Level 3-5 qualification (minimum Level 3 required).

• Opportunity to join a nationally recognised facilities management business.
• Exposure to high-profile, high-volume TUPE projects.
• A collaborative HR team with excellent opportunities to further develop your specialist TUPE expertise.
