Founded in 1933 at the call of Albert Einstein, the IRC is one of the world's largest international humanitarian non-governmental organizations (INGO), at work in more than 40 countries and 29 U.S. cities helping people to survive, reclaim control of their future and strengthen their communities. A force for humanity, IRC employees deliver lasting impact by restoring safety, dignity and hope to millions. If you're a solutions-driven, passionate change-maker, come join us in positively impacting the lives of millions of people world-wide for a better future.

The Role

As Finance Business Partner (Grants), you will play a key role in ensuring robust financial management across a diverse portfolio of grants and contracts. Acting as a strategic partner to both finance and programme teams, you’ll provide financial insight, ensure donor compliance, and drive best practice throughout the grant lifecycle from proposal to closeout.

You’ll support sound financial decision-making across IRC UK’s growing portfolio of institutional and statutory funders, helping to ensure funds are managed efficiently, transparently, and in line with both donor and IRC requirements.
