Use your data and financial insight to help ensure no one in the UK has to live without heat, light or power. If you’re driven by purpose and passionate about high‑quality data, this role lets you shape decisions that directly improve lives.

Fuel Bank Foundation supports people facing fuel crisis by providing emergency financial help, practical advice, and long‑term advocacy. As the UK’s only charity dedicated to households who prepay for their energy, our work is urgent, meaningful, and growing. High‑quality financial data is essential to how we plan, allocate resources, report to funders, and demonstrate our impact — and that’s where you come in.

We’re looking for a Data Quality Analyst to strengthen the accuracy, integrity, and usefulness of financial and operational data across the organisation. You’ll play a vital role in developing data governance processes, improving reporting systems, and ensuring the organisation has the insight it needs to operate efficiently, transparently, and in line with our mission.

What you’ll do

You’ll develop and maintain finance data policies, ensuring alignment with audit standards, financial controls, and regulatory requirements. You’ll monitor and audit data quality across systems, identifying issues and implementing improvements that protect accuracy and compliance.

You’ll build dashboards and visual tools (e.g., Power BI) that connect financial data to programme performance and service impact. You’ll produce clear, actionable insights for technical and non‑technical audiences, supporting senior leadership, trustees, funders, and auditors.

You’ll also contribute to developing financial KPIs, social impact metrics, and monitoring frameworks that help us understand the cost and value of our services — from average cost per outcome to cost avoidance and programme effectiveness.

What you’ll bring

You’ll have experience in data analysis with a strong financial or funding component, ideally within a charity, social enterprise, or public sector environment. You’ll be confident using Excel and Power BI,with a solid understanding of data governance, quality standards, and GDPR.

You’ll thrive in a fast‑paced, mission‑driven environment, balancing multiple priorities while maintaining accuracy and composure. You’ll be collaborative, proactive, and committed to continuous improvement — always looking for ways to strengthen systems and processes.

Why join us

At Fuel Bank Foundation, you’ll be part of a supportive, inclusive team united by a shared mission.

About the Nature Friendly Farming Network (NFFN)

The Nature Friendly Farming Network (NFFN) is a farmer-led organisation helping farmers restore the balance between farming and nature. We support farmers by sharing knowledge, resources and case studies that help boost food production, protect wildlife, and build climate resilience.

We influence policy to secure fair rewards for farmers who care for nature, and we connect like-minded farmers across the UK.

Our network is open to all: farmers, the public and partner organisations.

About the Role

We are looking for a Head of Finance and Income Operations to lead NFFN’s finance function and help strengthen the systems, controls and reporting that will support the organisation’s next stage of growth.

This is a senior leadership role at the heart of a small, ambitious and mission-led organisation. You will oversee day-to-day financial management, budgeting, management accounts, restricted funds, funder reporting and income operations. You will also help improve how finance works across NFFN, giving budget holders clearer information and helping the organisation make confident, well-informed decisions.

The role is about more than keeping the numbers moving. We are looking for someone who can help build a stronger finance function, improve internal systems, support funder confidence, and help NFFN manage a more complex mix of grants, donations, restricted funding and revenue-based delivery work.

Depending on your background, this may suit someone with strong charity finance experience, or someone from a finance, grants, funding operations or mission-led commercial background who wants to use their skills in a values-led organisation.

Key responsibilities include:

• leading day-to-day financial management, controls and reporting

• preparing budgets, forecasts, management accounts and financial updates

• supporting budget holders with clear, practical financial information

• improving finance systems, processes, approvals and reporting tools

• overseeing restricted funds, grant conditions, funder reporting and income tracking

• supporting funding applications with budgets, financial information and reporting structures

• helping NFFN manage VAT, full cost recovery and different types of income as the organisation grows

• working with the CEO, CSO, Head of Fundraising, SLT, Board and external advisers

• providing line management to the Head of Fundraising and potential future roles within the finance and income operations function 

This role will suit someone who combines financial rigour with practical judgement. You will need to be comfortable working independently in a remote organisation, explaining finance clearly to non-finance colleagues, and improving systems in a way that is proportionate and realistic for a small non profit organisation.

We know this is a broad role, and we are not expecting one person to have done everything before. We are looking for someone with strong financial experience, good judgement, attention to detail, and a genuine interest in helping NFFN build the financial infrastructure it needs for the future.

This is a fully home-based role, with flexibility in how work is managed and occasional travel for team meetings and events. You will be joining a collaborative, values-led team working to support farmers, nature and a more resilient food system.

About The Role

As a Finance Business Partner, you'll work alongside budget holders across Alzheimer's Society, turning complex financial information into clear insights that support better decision-making.

In a role where every pound matters in the fight against dementia, you'll help ensure our resources reach the places they can have the most impact, whether that's funding ground-breaking research, delivering vital support services, or campaigning for systemic change.
You'll build trusted relationships with stakeholders across the organisation, providing the financial analysis, challenge and support they need to navigate complexity with confidence. Through coaching and partnership, you'll help budget holders strengthen their own financial capability, so that sound financial thinking becomes part of how the Society operates, not something that sits only within Finance.

You'll be part of our Finance and Assurance directorate, where our vision is to be the Society's single point of truth. Working within the Financial Partnering, Planning and Analysis function, you'll be the dedicated finance partner for our Dementia Support and Partnerships directorate, connecting Finance with the teams responsible for providing our services across the UK.

- Experience working with ERP systems. Experience with Unit4 would be particularly valuable, though it is not essential.
- The ability to work independently and manage competing priorities, while knowing when to consult and when to ask for support.

Key Responsibilities:

- Partnering with budget holders across your assigned directorate to provide analysis, insight and recommendations that support effective, informed decision-making.
- Preparing financial reports, budgets, forecasts and business plans, and modelling financial data to support operational and strategic priorities.
- Supporting and challenging budget holders to identify risks and opportunities early, escalating appropriately and agreeing remedial action where needed.
- Strengthening financial knowledge and confidence across your stakeholder group through coaching, training and a partnership-based approach.
- Working collaboratively across the Finance team to design intuitive reports and analysis that meet the needs of colleagues across the Society.
- Advocating good accounting principles and helping to educate, inform and develop others within your directorate and the wider Finance team.
- Identifying cost saving or optimisation opportunities, working closely with colleagues in Procurement and Sustainability to realise these.
- Supporting Senior Business Partners in identifying key performance metrics and collecting routine feedback from partners across the Society to drive constant quality improvement.
