Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance (SCAA) exists so nobody in Scotland suffers or dies because medical help cannot get there in time. People can get sick or have accidents anywhere and anytime.

The Head of Fundraising will work collaboratively with the Individual Giving and Engagement team to drive new business pipelining and amplify fundraising campaigns, develop new fundraising products, and represent SCAA at external events and sector initiatives.

The ideal candidate will be an experienced team leader with significant experience working across a variety of fundraising disciplines and of developing and implementing fundraising strategies.

As a Finance Systems Officer at Alzheimer's Society, you'll play a vital role in embedding and improving our finance systems, ensuring colleagues have the tools, knowledge and confidence to deliver financial excellence as we work to end the devastation caused by dementia.

As Finance Systems Officer, you'll be the person colleagues turn to for our Unit4 Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system support. Resolving queries, building expertise, and championing system adoption across our Finance & Assurance directorate. This is an exciting career development opportunity where you'll have endless capacity to grow deep technical expertise in ERP and business systems while simultaneously developing your business partnering skills across both systems technology and finance operations. Every day brings new challenges to solve, new knowledge to gain, and new relationships to build as you become the go-to expert who bridges the gap between technology and people.

As a valued member of our Finance & Assurance directorate, you'll be part of a 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 systems expertise meets meaningful impact, directly enabling us to focus on what matters most: transforming lives affected by dementia.

Day-to-day, you'll answer questions, solve problems, and steadily deepen your expertise whilst being the trusted specialist colleagues rely on. You'll create guides and resources that make the complex simple. You'll run sessions that build skills and confidence, and work alongside the systems accountant to make our finance systems better, more integrated, and more effective. You'll collaborate with Unit4 specialists, our in-house IT colleagues, and Finance team members across the Society, managing your own priorities autonomously while being proactive in driving things forward.

About you

You have a proven foundation in ERP environments and you're eager to develop your career. You're someone who thrives on solving problems, explaining complex matters clearly, and helping people feel confident using technology. You understand that great systems support isn't just about fixing issues. It's about empowering colleagues, improving processes, and driving consistent adoption of best practice.

You'll have:

- Experience working with an ERP system, with genuine curiosity to develop specialist knowledge (Unit4 experience is a bonus, but your appetite to learn matters most).
- Effective analytical and troubleshooting skills, paired with experience using reporting tools such as Power BI, Excel, or ERP-native reporting modules to surface insight from finance data.
- A track record of building relationships and delivering excellent service or partnership, with a focus on improving how people experience and understand systems.
- Demonstrated grounding in accounting or finance processes, ideally gained in a large organisation.
- Proven ability to create clear guides, resources or training content that makes technical topics accessible.
- Confidence working independently while also thriving in collaborative environments, taking initiative and seeing things through.

What you\'ll focus on

- Being the primary contact for Unit4 and system queries, efficiently resolving issues and knowing when to escalate more complex challenges.
- Growing into a trusted Unit4 specialist by continuously expanding your knowledge and actively helping colleagues across the Society.
- Producing clear, helpful guides, FAQs and training resources that give colleagues the confidence to use our systems effectively.
- Supporting reporting improvements by helping to build, refine and maintain reports and dashboards that give colleagues the insight they need, using tools such as Excel, Power BI and our ERPs reporting modules.
- Running engagement and training sessions that boost understanding, capability and compliance with our finance systems.
- Championing good practice and confidently challenging off-system workarounds so colleagues get the full benefit of the functionality available to them.
- Supporting the integrity of our finance data and system structure, including the chart of accounts, role permissions and change logs, under the direction of the systems accountant.
- Working with the Systems Accountant on upgrades, testing and integration projects to ensure everything runs smoothly.
- Partnering with Finance colleagues and IT teams to monitor how systems perform, address issues quickly, and strengthen our single source of financial truth.

Can you see yourself as the systems expert who transforms how colleagues engage with finance technology? Are you ready to take ownership, learn continuously, and become the trusted partner who helps the Society gain maximum benefit from our systems? Can you bring both technical capability and genuine partnership to ensure our finance systems enable our mission to end the devastation of dementia?

Important dates

- The deadline for applications is 23:59 on Monday 4th May.
- A one-hour task will be carried out virtually W/C 11th May.

About The Role
A supporter opens an email at a moment they’re looking to understand why Dementia is the UK’s biggest killer, and how together we can beat dementia through fundraising, research, and campaigning activities. They discover an email created using evidence and insight to inspire action and build trust.
We’re here for everyone affected by dementia. Whether someone is living with the condition, caring for a loved one, or trying to make sense of a diagnosis, we want them to feel supported, informed and understood.
We are a mix of advisors, supporters, fundraisers, researchers, communicators and technical specialists. Some of us are volunteers, some are employees, but we’re all working towards the same goal: making life better for people affected by dementia.
We’re also committed to building a team where everyone feels welcome and able to be themselves. We know that different perspectives make us stronger, and we encourage applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences.
As part of our Omnichannel Team, you’ll help shape how we connect with people through email and SMS by creating personalised, supporter focused communications and journeys. You’ll work closely with colleagues across the organisation, not just delivering great campaigns, but helping others feel confident and supported in doing the same.
It will take a Society to beat dementia. Join us.
What you’ll do
You’ll create and deliver email and SMS campaigns that clearly communicate that Dementia is the UK’s biggest killer and the solutions we offer, in a thoughtful and genuinely helpful way to the people receiving them. You’ll think about how messages feel as well as how they perform, making sure they are accessible and reach the right person at the right time and through the right channel.
You’ll work alongside colleagues from different teams to plan and improve their campaigns, offering feedback in a way that builds confidence and supports learning. You’ll also develop and manage content calendars, helping to make sure our communications are joined up, relevant and aligned with what matters most to our supporters.
Part of your role will involve building and improving automated journeys and integrations, helping to create smoother, more personalised experiences. You’ll spend time looking at performance data, running tests and using what you learn to keep improving how we communicate.
You’ll also be a go-to person for our email and SMS platforms, sharing your knowledge, answering questions and helping others develop their skills.
About you
If this role sparks your curiosity and you feel inspired to make an impact, we would be thrilled to hear from you.

- You have experience with email marketing, planning, designing, building, and testing campaigns
- You’re a confident writer who can adapt your tone and style to connect with different audiences
- You enjoy putting together content calendars that reflect your organisation’s priorities and vision
- You’ve built automated journeys  or integrations for sending emails or SMS messages.
- You’ve experience training teams on how to use an ESP e.g. Dotdigital to build engaging and impactful email and SMS comms.
- You’re comfortable giving, honest and supportive feedback based on best practise and evidence that helps others grow and shine
- You like exploring data to see what’s working, what could improve, and how to make things even better
- You love working with people, building positive, collaborative relationships, and celebrating team wins

The work you do will help people feel informed, supported and less alone at times when it really matters.
It’ll take a Society to beat Dementia. If you want to use your skills in a way that has real impact, and be part of a team that values ambition, kindness, collaboration and inclusion, we’d love to hear from you.
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.
Giving back to you
Our employees work hard every day to make a true difference in people's lives. 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. We also have various learning programmes to support you in your development and help you grow to realise your potential and shape a career with Alzheimer's Society.
