Finance and hr officer jobs

Sahir has been on an incredible journey over the past four years. We have grown, strengthened our services and deepened our roots in the communities we serve. We are proud of what has been achieved and excited about what comes next.

Our CEO is stepping on to their next chapter, and we are taking the time to recruit the right permanent leader for what comes next at Sahir. In the meantime, we are looking for an Interim Chief Executive to help keep things steady, support the team and maintain the momentum we have built.

We are looking for someone who leads with empathy and compassion, works in partnership and brings the confidence and drive to support the organisation through a period of change.

About Us

Sahir is the oldest continuously operating LGBTQ+ charity in the Liverpool City Region. We are dedicated to fostering a brighter, healthier future for our communities.

We provide practical and emotional support, camaraderie and connection to:

· LGBTQ+ people

· People living with or affected by HIV

We actively confront injustice, combat discrimination and address inequalities. Through advocacy, partnerships and service delivery, we work to create a fairer and more equitable society for the people we serve. Our work is insight led and co-developed with our communities.

About the Role

This is a key interim leadership role focused on stability, continuity and care for Sahir during a period of transition.

The Interim Chief Executive will work closely with the Board, staff and partners to ensure Sahir continues to deliver safe, effective and person-centred services, maintains strong relationships and remains financially and operationally secure.

The role is not about changing direction. It is about protecting what has been built, supporting the team and helping Sahir move confidently towards the appointment of its next permanent CEO.

What We Are Looking For

We are seeking a senior leader who brings:

· Significant leadership experience in the voluntary, community, health, social care or equalities sector.

· Experience working with a Board of Trustees and supporting good governance.

· Strong financial oversight and organisational management experience.

· A calm, steady and values led leadership style.

· The ability to lead people well through transition and uncertainty.

· Strong relationship building skills and a partnership approach.

· Knowledge of issues affecting LGBTQ+ communities, people living with HIV and people seeking asylum is highly desirable.

What It Is Like to Work at Sahir

We want people to enjoy working at Sahir and to feel supported, valued and able to thrive. As a health and wellbeing charity, we place strong emphasis on staff wellbeing, reflective practice and work life balance.

We offer a friendly, inclusive and supportive working environment built on trust, openness and shared purpose.

Equality, Inclusion and Accessibility

Sahir is committed to equality, diversity and inclusion. We welcome applications from all suitably qualified candidates regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, disability, religion or belief, sexual orientation or age.

Lived experience is valued at Sahir, but it is not a requirement. We are interested in people who share our values and want to contribute positively to our communities.

You do not need to meet every requirement listed to apply. If you feel aligned with our values and excited by the role, we encourage you to apply.

We are happy to discuss reasonable adjustments at any stage of the recruitment process.

At The Maypole Project, every small action contributes to a family’s strength, stability and hope. As our Operations Officer, you’ll be the person who quietly but powerfully keeps that support flowing – ensuring our team can be there for children with complex medical needs and their families when they need us most.

This role sits at the heart of our organisation. You’ll be the steady hand behind the scenes, making sure our office runs smoothly, our staff feel supported, our policies stay sharp, and our environment is safe and welcoming for everyone who walks through the door. You’ll provide support to the CEO and team leads, helping them deliver the very best support to families.

You’ll manage the rhythm of day‑to‑day operations: from coordinating office needs and liaising with IT and telecoms providers, to ensuring the right resources are where they’re needed. Your eye for organisation will help keep our budgets on track, our shared inboxes responsive, and our essential administration running with calm efficiency.

A key part of your work will be within HR support—helping coordinate recruitment, onboarding new colleagues, maintaining records, and making sure staff feel welcomed and prepared from day one. You’ll also play a vital role in keeping our policies current and meaningful, working closely with the CEO to maintain our review cycle and ensure that information is clear and accessible across the organisation.

Health, safety, environment and fire safety (SHEF) responsibilities form another important strand. You’ll take the lead in maintaining compliance across the organisation, ensuring risk assessments are up to date, first aid provision is well‑stocked, and our premises and equipment remain safe, functional and fit for purpose.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, thrives on organisation, and cares about being part of a charity that puts families front and centre. You’ll collaborate across teams, support events and activities, champion equity and inclusion, and contribute to a culture that values compassion, professionalism and shared purpose.

At The Maypole Project, every role matters—but few touch as many parts of the organisation as this one. If you want to make a meaningful impact every day, not just through what you do but through how you enable others to do their best work, this is a place where you can truly make a difference.

If you love spreadsheets and stories, this could be your perfect mix. As Finance Manager at Thrive, you’ll help us make smart, sustainable choices that grow our impact and strengthen our future. Working hand-in-hand with our leadership team, you’ll lead a small finance team that keeps our charity ticking – from big-picture strategy to the tiny details that matter.

We’re looking for a Finance Manager with strong experience in financial management, analysis, and reporting to ensure our day-to-day finances and budgets run smoothly while supporting effective long-term decision-making. You’ll bring insight, structure, and clarity, turning data into decisions that make every penny count for the communities we serve.

In this role, you’ll ensure accurate and timely monitoring across Thrive and its associated ventures, offering technical support to the finance team and working closely with the Chief Executive. Reporting to the Head of Operations & HR, you’ll help shape system updates, provide advice to the Senior Leadership Team, and support the Treasurer and Finance Sub-Committee of the Board of Trustees.

Please read the attached job description for more information on what you'll be doing.
