For 30 years, Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Appeal has helped transform children’s healthcare in Bristol, funding pioneering treatment, facilities and research at Bristol Children’s Hospital and the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at St Michael’s Hospital. By uniting philanthropy with world-class medicine, the charity enables clinicians to deliver exceptional care and improve outcomes for babies and children across the South West and beyond. Our long-standing partnership with Aardman underpins the charity’s national profile and reach, while initiatives such as Cots for Tots and Gromit Unleashed demonstrate the scale, creativity and impact of our work. As The Grand Appeal continues to grow in scale, complexity and long-term investment commitments, we are creating a new Group Financial Controller role to strengthen financial leadership across the organisation and its subsidiary activities. This is a pivotal role at the heart of the charity. The successful candidate will ensure that the organisation’s financial systems, commitments and reporting remain robust, transparent and capable of supporting ambitious future plans - from major capital projects to long-term programme investment. Working closely with senior leadership and external advisers, the Group Financial Controller will help ensure that donor funds are stewarded responsibly and that the charity remains financially resilient as it evolves and grows. The role also covers the charity’s significant commercial and retail activity delivered through its trading subsidiary, requiring clear financial visibility of trading performance, margins and income streams. You will ensure this activity is reflected confidently within group reporting, supporting disciplined growth and long-term financial resilience. We are looking for someone who combines strong technical financial expertise with a practical, hands-on approach and the confidence to operate at both operational and strategic levels. This role offers the opportunity to shape financial governance in a growing, high-impact charity where financial leadership directly enables better outcomes for children and families. If you are motivated by purpose, value, integrity and want your work to have real-world impact, we would love to hear from you

War on Want works to challenge the root causes of poverty, inequality and injustice through partnership with social movements in the Global South and by running hard-hitting campaigns in the UK in support of radical change. 

We are recruiting an ambitious early-career campaigner, with a passion for social, economic and climate justice, and enthusiasm for running impactful campaigns.

We are currently re-launching our trade justice campaign, focusing on challenging investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) and critical mineral extractivism. ISDS is a dangerous and undemocratic system that allows corporations to sue governments for policies which damage their profits. For example, the UK is currently being sued for blocking a coal mine in Cumbria and for placing sanctions on Putin-linked oligarchs. Critical minerals are materials, such as lithium, nickel and cobalt, that are essential for batteries, renewable technologies and digital infrastructure. The UK is pursuing trade deals to secure access to these materials, which could risk fuelling environmental destruction and human rights abuses in the supply chain, deepening poverty in Global South countries where they are extracted, and slowing action against the climate crisis.

Our re-launched campaign will oppose ISDS and the dangerous global rush for critical minerals, while championing trade justice. We are looking for a dynamic Campaign Coordinator to work on it. 

Every purchasing decision across Alzheimer's Society has the potential to deliver better value, stronger compliance, and ultimately more impact for people affected by dementia. As a Procurement Officer, you'll be one of a team of the operational experts who makes this happen. Supporting colleagues across the Society to navigate procurement with confidence, building the relationships that drive understanding, and using data to identify opportunities that protect resources and unlock savings. 

About the opportunity 

As Procurement Officer within our Finance & Assurance directorate, you'll be part of an agile, flexible team that's transforming how we deliver financial partnership across the organisation. We're on an ambitious journey to become the Society's single point of financial truth - trusted partners and credible experts who enable the organisation to make faster, better-informed decisions. This is where your procurement expertise meets meaningful impact, where your ability to engage colleagues and drive understanding directly enables us to focus on what matters most: transforming lives affected by dementia. 

In this role, you'll provide hands-on procurement support to colleagues across the Society, helping them navigate contracts, suppliers and purchasing decisions. You'll implement our procurement strategies at an operational level, ensuring contracts are delivered with quality and on time. Working collaboratively with Finance, Legal, Risk and Audit colleagues, you'll develop and manage contracts, maintain supplier relationships, and collect the financial data that helps us understand procurement performance. Crucially, you'll engage widely to build understanding of procurement policies, making compliance accessible rather than burdensome, and fostering a culture where best practice becomes the natural way of working. 

You may also have the chance to line manage a Procurement Assistant, developing their capabilities while role-modelling the high-challenge, high-support culture that drives our team's success. 

About you: 

You're an experienced procurement professional who understands that operational excellence comes from making procurement easy for colleagues to get right. You know how to balance rigorous processes with practical support, and you're skilled at engaging people at all levels to improve how procurement works. You're as comfortable analysing spend data as you are explaining contract requirements or building rapport with suppliers. 

You'll have: 

-  Experience driving efficiencies and cost savings through supporting the design and implementation of procurement plans in large organisations. 
- A track record of improving understanding of and engagement with procurement across diverse audiences to boost compliance and effectiveness. 
- Experience of contract development, management and negotiation, with knowledge of the procurement landscape and relevant legislation. 
- Good relationship-building skills with experience working across multiple business areas and with colleagues at different levels, particularly those in financial roles. 
- Excellent communication and influencing abilities, able to engage effectively with internal colleagues and external suppliers alike. 
- Some experience working with finance systems and processes, or in a financial environment, with an interest in the dementia landscape and its procurement implications. 

What you’ll focus on:  

-  Implementing our procurement strategies operationally, ensuring quality contract delivery while building understanding and compliance across the Society. 
- Forming strong relationships with colleagues at all levels to provide expert procurement support that makes purchasing decisions clearer and easier. 
- Collecting and translating financial and procurement data into reports that demonstrate impact and spotlight opportunities for better value. 
- Managing supplier relationships and developing contracts that protect the Society's interests while collaborating across departments for appropriate oversight. 
- Building effective relationships with colleagues to improve value for money and/or drive efficiencies, particularly with colleagues in financial roles. 
- Taking personal ownership of monitoring your work's progress and impact, while supporting the team's efforts to track overall procurement performance. 

Can you see yourself as the procurement partner who turns policy into practice through effective relationship building and clear guidance? Are you ready to combine operational rigour with authentic engagement to drive both compliance and efficiency? Can you bring technical procurement knowledge and people skills to ensure every pound is spent wisely in our mission to end the devastation of dementia? 

Important Dates 
The deadline for applications is 23:59 on 17th March 2026. 
First-stage interviews will take place on Monday 30th March and Tuesday 31st March.
Second-stage interviews will take place on 14th and 15th April.

About Alzheimer's Society

Dementia is the UK's biggest killer. One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime.

At Alzheimer's Society, we're the UK's leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future. We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding groundbreaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be.

Together with our supporters, we're working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.

Our values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.  

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society. 

Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy here along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people. 

Our hiring process

During your recruitment process we want to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best. We are working hard to ensure our recruitment process is as inclusive as possible, so please do inform us of your experience and anything you think we could do better by completing our candidate survey when you apply.  Please also contact Alzheimer's Society Talent Acquisition Team via [email protected] for application support or any adjustments you might need.

To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.

We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.

We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with, due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a Criminal Record Check at the relevant level. You can read more information via our Website.

We are proud to support them with a range of benefits, recognition and many options for working agilely, all contributing to a strong work life balance.
