Helping to build a future where everyone with cystic fibrosis can live a life unlimited

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life-limiting genetic condition affecting more than 11,000 people in the UK. Behind every statistic is a person, a family, and a future shaped by access to care, treatment, and support.

Since 1964, Cystic Fibrosis Trust has existed for one reason: to ensure that people with cystic fibrosis can live longer, healthier lives — without limits imposed by their condition. We provide information and support, fund vital research, influence policy, improve care, and stand alongside people with CF at every stage of life.

We are at a moment of real progress. New treatments and advances in care are transforming outcomes and expectations. However, many challenges remain, and the decisions we make now — about how we invest, prioritise, and operate — will shape lives for decades to come.

That is why this role is so critical.

The opportunity

We are seeking an exceptional Director of Finance and Resources to help ensure the Trust is financially strong, operationally effective, and strategically equipped to deliver maximum impact for people with cystic fibrosis.

This is not just a finance leadership role. It is a mission-critical position at the heart of the organisation, where sound financial stewardship, thoughtful investment, and values-led decision-making directly support better outcomes for the CF community.

Reporting to the Chief Executive, you will be a key strategic partner to the Senior Leadership Team and Board of Trustees. With oversight of a £15m budget, you will lead a multidisciplinary directorate encompassing Finance, IT and digital transformation, People and Organisation Development, Strategy and Business Intelligence, Facilities, and Company Secretariat functions.

Your leadership will enable the Trust to:

• Make confident, evidence-led decisions in a complex and changing environment
• Invest wisely in services, research, people and digital capability
• Strengthen governance, resilience and long-term sustainability
• Ensure our systems, processes and culture support excellence, inclusion and impact

A significant element of the role will be leading the Trust’s digital and IT transformation, including the delivery of a new CRM system in 2026 — a critical enabler of how we understand, support and engage with our community.

About you

You will be a qualified accountant with senior-level experience and the credibility to operate at Board and executive level. More importantly, you will be motivated by purpose — understanding that financial strategy, governance and operational excellence are not ends in themselves, but tools to change lives.

You will bring:

• A strong track record of strategic financial leadership
• Experience guiding organisations through change and complexity
• Confidence influencing senior stakeholders and Boards
• A collaborative, inclusive leadership style that brings out the best in people
• A clear commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion
• Alignment with our mission, values and belief that everyone with CF deserves a life unlimited

Experience in the charity or not-for-profit sector is desirable, as is understanding of — or lived experience of — cystic fibrosis.

Why join us?

At the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, your expertise will directly support people living with a life-limiting condition — today and in the future. You will help ensure that the resources entrusted to us by our supporters are used wisely, ethically and boldly to deliver lasting change.

If you are a senior leader who wants your work to truly matter, this is an opportunity to make a profound difference.

A satisfactory DBS check will be required for this role.
