• Familiarity with Sage (or similar) and strong Excel capability.

Why Join Us

This is a unique opportunity to help shape the future of a newly independent charity with a clear purpose, strong foundations, and the ambition to make meaningful change every day.

You’ll join a supportive, close-knit team working closely with NHS partners and local communities. The charity offers flexible hybrid working, professional development opportunities, and the chance to directly influence the impact delivered across its healthcare sites.
