Salary circa £55,000 plus pension and generous annual leave benefit
Bethphage is a charitable business, operating across the West Midlands providing support to people with disabilities and those who experience mental health problems
Bethphage has recently celebrated its thirtieth Birthday. Since establishment in 1994, Bethphage has grown from strength to strength, diversified and continues to grow. We operate as a commercial business, we are driven by our mission and live by our values, with the people we support at the heart of what we do. We have held the Investors in People Gold for twelve years.
Our person-centred approach also enables us to work strategically with commissioners to develop bespoke provision which achieves the desired outcome for people.

The current incumbent has decided to retire (early) and has successfully made the job his own over the last five-years. Therefore, we are reluctantly seeking a replacement to join our executive management team.
The successful candidate will lead on all fiscal and IT issues and be accountable for these functions across Bethphage. This role will demand a strong commercial financial acumen, as these are difficult times for our sector.

Fortunately, the organisation has been well and prudently managed so has strong foundations.
The key purpose of the role is to provide professional leadership to Bethphage's fiscal agenda, ensuring their efficacy and fit with the organisation's values, ethos, culture and strategy. With strategic responsibility for finance and IT you will ensure that the organisation has highly effective well-implemented operational strategies, which align to Bethphage's core business, and deliver positive outcomes.
