Who we are

This is an opportunity to join a small organisation with a huge mission – to change the UK’s relationship with alcohol, starting with children and young people.

• Enjoys combining finance with governance and organisational support.
• Is hands-on, detail-oriented and proactive.
• Takes pride in clear, professional presentation of financial information.
• Is comfortable as an integral part of a small team rather than operating at arm’s length.

Applications for this role close at 9 a.m. Thursday 25th June.
