The Findhorn Foundation is a 58 year old spiritual community based in the NE of Scotland where it runs courses based on the three foundational principles of Inner Listening, Co-creation with the intelligence of nature and Work as love in action. Despite its small size and remote location it has had a global impact, creating a space where tens of thousands of people have had their lives transformed and gone on to be influencers for good across the world.

At this time of planetary transformation, the Foundation is going through its own process of radical transformation in response to the challenges brought about by the COVID pandemic and, more recently, a catastrophic fire that destroyed two of the most cherished buildings on one of our Campuses. The Accounts function has commenced its own transformation as we have moved from Sage to Xero and our Finance Manager of 20 years has retired.

We are therefore looking for someone to join us on the next part of this adventure. This role is responsible for the development of Xero as a tool to enable financial transparency, understanding and accountability across the co-worker body, as well as creating an integrated system of checks, balances and reports for management and trustees. Liaison with auditors, banks, and other departmental heads is also central to this role.

It will not be possible for this role to be performed remotely, at least initially. 

Requirements for this role:

• Either at least 5 years PQE with a formal qualification or at least 10 years of qualification by experience at senior management level in a finance function

• Experience of supporting Board members/Trustees with financial information

• Extensive experience with Xero and Excel

• Experience at setting up systems of checks, balances and reporting

• Excellent written and oral communication skills

• Good IT skills and an ability to assess IT solutions for integration with Xero as required

• Understanding of charity accounts an advantage

Person specification:

• Aligned with the spiritual principles of the Foundation

• Ability to  inspire and lead a team

• Ability to think creatively and communicate concepts clearly

• A willingness to engage with the wider community on financial matters

• A willingness to ‘roll up your sleeves’ when necessary

This role will be responsible for the development, management and implementation of a collection of inter-related projects.  These projects comprise the implementation of two of the recommendations in the IICSA Report and other related developments which the Church has been planning.

In Phase One, this programme of projects will be introduced with a group of “pathfinder” dioceses and cathedrals. Following evaluation and adjustment, Phase Two will be rolled out across the Church.

The five projects which make up this role are:

1. The implementation of IICSA Recommendation 1

This is a major structural change in which the role of “Diocesan Safeguarding Adviser” changes to a new one of “Diocesan Safeguarding Officer” with greater autonomy. Supervision arrangements also change from being arranged locally to being directly supervised and quality assured by the National Safeguarding Team.

2. The introduction on a pilot basis of a “regionalised” model of support for dioceses and cathedrals in respect of safeguarding.

This is the second major, and related, structural change. In this pilot Regional Safeguarding Leads (RSLs) will be appointed to work with small groups of dioceses and cathedrals. The RSLs will supervise the dioceses’ / cathedrals’ safeguarding advisers but will also lead cross-diocese developments such as survivor engagement, sharing of expertise and good practice, joint commissioning of resources, peer review.

3.The implementation of IICSA Recommendation 8.

This involves the design and implementation of independent external auditing of the Church’s safeguarding practices.

4. The introduction of the Church’s quality assurance framework and national safeguarding standards.

The Church has a draft quality assurance framework. This now needs to be introduced into use in the pathfinder dioceses and cathedrals so that it can be further developed in readiness for implementation across the Church.

5. The development of a consistent methodology to enable dioceses and cathedrals to assess local safeguarding need and determine the resources needed to deliver good safeguarding practice.

The 42 dioceses and 42 cathedrals are responsible for the funding of their safeguarding arrangements (which include, for example, investigation of allegations, responding to survivors, training, quality assurance). The level of funding varies considerably between dioceses / cathedrals. One reason for this is the lack of a consistent methodology to assess both local need and the resources needed to achieve a good standard of safeguarding.

The role is based in the National Safeguarding Team but also links with the Church’s Project Management Office.

MAIN DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Planning and co-designing (with the pathfinder dioceses and cathedrals) the projects and proactively monitoring progress, resolving issues and initiating appropriate corrective action.
• Ensuring the integrity and coherence of the projects, and its continuous alignment with organisational strategies and departmental goals.
• Developing the plans for the delivery of the individual projects, setting out the key actions, steps and timescales needed for each project, the critical paths and the co-dependencies / interfaces between them.
• Leading on the direct management and delivery of specific elements of the projects. 
• Establishing effective working relationships (individually and collectively) with the key stakeholders in the pathfinder dioceses and cathedrals. This will include, in particular, bishops, diocesan secretaries, deans, cathedral administrators, and diocesan and cathedral safeguarding advisers.
• Supporting the pathfinder dioceses and cathedrals in the establishment of local project groups and governance arrangements.
• Developing arrangements for the engagement of victims and survivors of abuse in co-design and programme development.
• Managing risks to the programme's successful outcome.
• Developing the evaluation framework for Phase 1 and potentially leading the evaluation process.
• Developing the plan for roll out of the projects across the Church in Phase 2.
