Goodman Masson are delighted to partner with an influential London-based healthcare charity to recruit a forward-thinking Head of Finance. As the charity prepares to transition into its next ambitious five-year strategy, this crucial leadership role offers a unique opportunity to shape the future of its finance function. Reporting directly to the Chief Financial Officer, you will drive strategic financial control, deliver high-quality commercial analysis, and lead the team's data, digital, and AI innovation agenda.

Key Responsibilities:

• Strategic Financial Control & Governance: Oversee robust financial controls, reporting, audit, tax, and compliance, providing high-level advice to Trustees and Committee members.
• Performance & Business Partnering: Lead annual budgeting, forecasting, and long-term financial planning, partnering across the organisation to enhance insight and decision-making.

• Team & Organisational Leadership: Lead and empower direct reports (including the Assistant Financial Controller and Finance Business Partner), fostering a collaborative, continuous-improvement culture.

Who We Are Looking For:

• Qualification: Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, or equivalent) with post-qualification experience in a senior finance leadership role.
• Leadership & Strategy: Strong track record in financial planning, budgeting, team management, and senior stakeholder business partnering.
• Innovation Mindset: A genuine curiosity and appetite for technology, data-driven transformation, and process automation.
• Sector Context: Charity or not-for-profit sector experience (including Charity SORP) is advantageous, though strong commercial candidates with an improvement-led mindset are welcomed.

What’s on Offer:

• Competitive Package: circa£85k base salary, 10% employer pension contribution, 30 days annual leave (+ bank holidays), private healthcare, and season ticket loan.
• Flexible Working: Modern hybrid setup (2 mandatory anchor days in the London office) with flexible core hours.
