Big Issue Foundation is partnering with Robertson Bell to recruit a 12-14 month maternity cover fixed term contract as their Interim Finance Manager. Big Issue Foundation is a part of Big Issue Group and a charitable organisation based in Finsbury Park which connects venders of the well-known magazine to support services and delivers services to help them rebuild their lives and build pathways towards a brighter future.
Reporting into a newly appointed Finance Director, the Interim Finance Manager has the following key responsibilities:
- Being hands on with the day-to-day operation of finance, overseeing the work of a junior Finance Assistant

Strong candidates for this position will:

- Ideally have experience in Charity finance functions, most notably, those who have held Business Partnering interactions with Fundraising teams will be highly attractive (but not critical)
