DIRECTOR OF FINANCE AND RESOURCES
Are you a strategic finance leader with a heart for mission? Do you want your professional expertise to count for something more than the bottom line?
We are delighted to be partnering with Church Mission Society (CMS), who are supporting close to 200 people in mission across dozens of countries. CMS exists to make disciples of Jesus at the edges: the edges of church, the edges of society and the edges of our own comfort zones. They are now seeking an exceptional Director of Finance and Resources to help ensure that extraordinary mission work is sustainable for generations to come.
As a member of the Senior Leadership Team (SLT), you will provide strategic leadership across CMS's financial sustainability, organisational infrastructure and central resources. This is a genuinely broad and influential role, covering financial strategy and management, investments, treasury, risk, legal and regulatory compliance, property and facilities, IT and cyber security, and relevant corporate governance. You will also maintain oversight of CMS's residual pension-related responsibilities following the transfer of its defined-benefit pension liabilities.
You will be a trusted adviser to the CEO, board of trustees and the wider SLT, providing the financial clarity, challenge and confidence that enables CMS to make wise, sustainable decisions in service of its mission. You will lead four direct reports (Head of Finance, Head of ICT, Facilities Manager and Head of Legal) and serve as a director of a number of CMS subsidiary entities.
You will be a qualified accountant with significant senior finance leadership experience, ideally gained within a charity, not-for-profit or values-led organisation. You will bring proven ability to contribute at executive and board level, with strong experience across financial planning, audit, internal controls, management reporting and team leadership.
But this role asks for more than technical expertise. CMS is looking for someone with the wisdom to balance prudent stewardship with an appropriate appetite for risk, the courage to hold a firm line when necessary, and the humility to lead in a way that enables others to flourish. You will be collaborative, relational and service-oriented, someone who genuinely believes that finance exists to serve mission, not the other way around.
A committed and practising Christian, you will be in sympathy with CMS's values, its Ethos Statement, and its pioneering, servant-hearted approach to God's work in the world.
If you would like an informal conversation, please contact Adam Stacey, CEO at Charisma Charity Recruitment.
Applications should please be submitted through the Charisma website, to include your CV and supporting statement. Please see candidate pack for full details.
We particularly welcome applications from individuals from minority groups as they are currently underrepresented within our organisation at this level. All appointments are made on merit of skill, experience and potential as set out in the job description and person specification.
All applicants must be wholeheartedly committed to the aims, ethos, and values of Church Mission Society. This post is subject to an Occupational Requirement that the post holder is a practising Christian, under Part 1 of Schedule 9 to the Equality Act 2010.
Closing date: 5 July 2026
First stage interviews with CMS: 14 July (online)
Second stage interviews with CMS: 29 July (in person)
People at the edges are at the centre of God’s story. Join our global movement as we follow Jesus to the edges together.

Demand for our specialist tutoring programmes for Children Looked After, those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children (UASC) continues to increase and we are seeking a dedicated and effective Partnerships Account Manager to join our team and support the increased demand for our provision and the continued scaling of our organisation.
The Organisation
Equal Education is a social enterprise working to improve outcomes and narrow the attainment gap for disadvantaged and vulnerable learners, including Children Looked After, those with SEND, and unaccompanied asylum seeking children. We have over 13 years’ experience delivering 1:1 tuition, working with hundreds of Schools and Local Authority partners across the country, reaching hundreds of pupils annually.
As a member of the Fair Education Alliance, we believe in providing meaningful educational provision to students whose needs may not be best met within a traditional classroom environment, those who aren’t currently accessing education, or who benefit from additional 1:1 support. We work with over 200 qualified teachers to provide academic, subject specialised and individual tutoring and mentoring for children of all ages. Tutors provide pastoral care and work with pupils to increase engagement and attainment. Our programmes will help the students to overcome barriers to learning, help them build trusted relationships, increase their aspirations, and fulfil their potential. We are passionate about our cause and are looking for people who are motivated by a strong desire to address educational inequality and improve outcomes.
What is the Role?
In this role, you will drive business growth by securing new partnerships and managing key client accounts across designated regions. With a focus on building and sustaining long-term local council and school relationships, you will work closely with clients to understand their needs, expand our service offerings, and ensure the highest levels of satisfaction. As the majority of our key client relationships are with local councils, we are looking for someone with knowledge of how they operate.
The post holder will have the opportunity to line manage junior member(s) of the team, who provide essential bid-writing and administrative support to facilitate efficient and effective client management.
This role would suit someone with proven ability to operate effectively in scaling organisations where processes are still being defined. This role suits someone who is adaptable, resilient, and confident working at pace amid change.
The role will be suited to those who have worked within an education setting and held the title: SENCO, Head of Department, Advisory Teacher, Inclusion Coordinator or Designated Teacher. The role will also be suited to those who have worked within a Local Authority setting and held the title: Commissioning Officer, Senior Case Officer, Case Officer. Whilst the role is also suited for an experienced (key) account/client manager, we are looking for an individual who has experience and/or knowledge of the UK education system.
This role is ideal for an ambitious, client-focused individual, passionate about creating positive outcomes for vulnerable students. If you’re ready to contribute to a growing organisation that’s making a difference, we’d love to hear from you! We expect that the successful candidate will be able to swiftly absorb our ways of working and contribute to the ongoing growth and success of the organisation.
