Interim Senior FP&A Manager
Location: Thame (Oxfordshire) with hybrid working (minimum, 2 days per week in the office) and occasional travel
Contract: Interim, Fixed Term Contract until 31 March 2027
Salary / day rate: £60,000 per annum (pro rata)
Reports to: Head of Finance
Affinity Trust is looking for an experienced Interim Senior FP&A Manager to bring senior finance capacity, challenge and insight across a complex, multi-site organisation.
This is not a routine reporting role. We are looking for someone who can quickly get under the skin of operational performance, understand the financial drivers behind service delivery, and help senior leaders make better, faster and more informed decisions.
You will work closely with the Head of Finance, Finance Business Partners, Divisional Directors and operational leaders, providing high-quality analysis, forecasting, commercial insight and constructive challenge. The work will span income, workforce costs, agency and overtime spend, utilisation, fee rates, contract performance, forecasting assumptions and recovery planning.
This is a senior individual contributor role, adding experienced capacity where it is most needed, to help maintain pace across key priorities, and strengthen the link between financial insight and operational action.
The assignment
You will be joining at a point where strong financial planning, clear analysis and senior business partnering are critical to supporting sustainable services.
Your work will include:
- Leading robust forecasting and scenario modelling across a complex operational portfolio
- Providing senior finance business partnering to divisional and operational leaders
- Analysing key cost drivers, particularly workforce-related costs such as agency, overtime, sickness and staffing ratios
- Reviewing income, fee rates, local authority funding assumptions, utilisation and contract performance
- Supporting tenders, contract reviews, business cases and service sustainability analysis
- Helping identify whether financial pressure is driven by fee levels, operational delivery, workforce deployment or a combination of factors
- Translating complex financial information into clear insight, options and practical recommendations
- Supporting the head of finance and wider finance team with additional senior capacity during a period of increased demand.
About you
You will be a qualified accountant with ACCA, CIMA, ACA or equivalent, and substantial experience in senior FP&A, finance business partnering or commercial finance roles.
You will be confident working with senior stakeholders and able to bring both grip and judgement. You will know how to challenge assumptions constructively, explain complex financial information clearly, and turn analysis into action.
You are likely to have worked in a complex, multi-site or operationally demanding environment, where financial performance is closely linked to workforce planning, contract income, service delivery and operational decision-making.
You will bring:
- Strong FP&A, forecasting, modelling and management reporting experience
- Advanced Excel and analytical capability
- Credibility with senior operational and finance stakeholders
- Experience supporting budgeting, reforecasting, recovery planning and performance improvement
- The ability to work at pace, prioritise well and operate with a high level of autonomy
- A practical, commercial and solutions-focused approach.
Experience in social care, healthcare, supported living, charity or not-for-profit settings would be helpful, but is not essential. Experience with Local Authority funding, high-volume staffing models, workforce cost pressures or interim turnaround environments would be particularly valuable.
Why this role?
This is an opportunity to make a visible impact quickly.
You will be joining a values-led not-for-profit support organisation with national impact, where finance plays a central role in supporting sustainable, high-quality services for people with learning disabilities, autism and complex needs.
For the right person, this is a role with real substance: complex operations, senior stakeholder exposure, meaningful commercial analysis, and the chance to strengthen financial decision-making where it matters most.
Please note, if you are successful, we may need to complete a Disclosure and Barring Service (Criminal Record) check at the relevant level for the role. This will be paid for by us.

Charity Manager
The Noah Jordan Foundation
Location: Cornwall, UK
Salary: £35,000–£40,000 (depending on experience)
Hours: Full-time preferred (part-time may be considered)
Reporting to: Charity Director
Working closely with: Board of Trustees
Additional Requirements: Flexibility to work occasional evenings and weekends in line with events, campaigns and charity activities, with willingness and ability to travel across the UK as required.
About The Noah Jordan Foundation
The Noah Jordan Foundation is a fast-growing UK children’s charity established in memory of Noah, who died in 2024 from POLG mitochondrial disease, a rare and devastating paediatric mitochondrial disorder which can cause severe neurological deterioration and liver failure in children, and for which there is currently no effective treatment or cure.
Following Noah’s death, his family made him a promise: that his legacy would help change the future for children and families affected by mitochondrial disease.
The Foundation was established to deliver that promise through three charitable objectives:
Medical Research
Funding pioneering medical research to improve clinical management, accelerate the development of effective treatments and ultimately help drive progress towards cures for rare paediatric mitochondrial diseases, including POLG-related mitochondrial disorders.
Raising Awareness
Increasing awareness and understanding of mitochondrial disease amongst healthcare professionals, organisations and the wider public through campaigns, events, education and training.
Supporting Children and Families
Providing practical and emotional support to children and families affected by mitochondrial disease through information, resources, services and financial assistance where possible.
Since launching in September 2024, thanks to our incredible community, the Foundation has grown rapidly, raising more than £400,000 in just over 18 months.
Our Impact
The Foundation has already:
- Fully funded a three-year medical research PhD programme into POLG mitochondrial disease at the Mitochondrial Research Group (MRG) at Newcastle University, under the guidance of one of the UK’s leading Professors of Paediatric Mitochondrial Medicine, who also serves as a Charity Medical Advisor to the Foundation.
- Supported affected children, families and organisations across the UK.
- Developed national corporate partnerships and strategic relationships.
- Built a growing national supporter community and dedicated volunteer network.
- Established a growing national profile across mitochondrial disease awareness, fundraising and advocacy.
- Begun work towards funding further pioneering mitochondrial disease research and delivering long-term charitable impact.
Everything achieved so far has been built through passion, community and an unwavering commitment to creating meaningful change. Whilst we are proud of what has been achieved during our first 18 months, we believe this is only the beginning.
The Foundation is now entering an exciting and important phase of development as we strengthen long-term sustainability, diversify income, grow partnerships and build the organisational capability required to maximise impact for children and families affected by mitochondrial disease across the UK, whilst contributing towards change around the world through research, awareness and support.
We are seeking an exceptional individual to help build upon the momentum already created and shape the Foundation’s continued growth and long-term impact.
