We welcome applications from CCAB-qualified or part-qualified professionals (ICAEW, ACCA, CIMA or CIPFA), or AAT Level 4 qualified candidates with significant experience in a Finance Manager or similar role.

Reporting to the Head of Business Services, as Finance Manager you'll lead financial management, reporting, budgeting and forecasting, providing the insight and assurance needed to support strategic decision-making. You'll oversee payroll, strengthen financial controls, support audit and compliance activities, and help drive continuous improvement across our finance systems and processes.

What you'll bring

• A recognised finance qualification or significant equivalent experience
• Experience producing management accounts, budgets and forecasts
• Strong knowledge of financial controls, compliance and statutory reporting
• Experience overseeing payroll and financial operations
• Excellent analytical skills and the ability to turn data into meaningful insight
• The confidence to communicate financial information to non-finance colleagues
• A proactive approach to improving systems, processes and ways of working
• Experience managing or developing finance staff and building strong working relationships across an organisation

Why join us?

This is an opportunity to use your financial expertise to make a genuine difference as a Finance Manager. You'll play a key role in shaping the organisation's financial future, influencing decision-making at all levels and helping ensure we can continue delivering vital services to those who need them most.

I think this format feels much more like a CharityJob advert and is more likely to engage candidates than a traditional responsibilities-based summary. It also balances the technical requirements with the purpose and impact of the role.
