Who we are:

Kairos Women Working Together is a specialist, women-only organisation based in Coventry. For over 27 years, we have walked alongside women facing multiple and intersecting disadvantages, including sexual exploitation, violence, poverty, homelessness, and criminalisation. 

We are a feminist organisation rooted in the belief that women’s lives are shaped by inequality, and that lasting change happens through safety, relationships, and long-term support. From street outreach to our Women’s Hub in the heart of the city, we provide trauma-informed, holistic support that meets women where they are and walks with them for as long as it takes. 

Over the next five years, we are strengthening our Women’s Hub as a safe, accessible, trauma-informed women’s centre, expanding our services, strengthening partnerships, and influencing systems so that no woman is left behind. 

What we need

We are now looking for a Finance Lead to join our Senior Leadership Team in Coventry. 

Blending both the strategic and the hands-on practical, the Finance Lead is responsible for ensuring the overall financial health and sustainability of the charity. Alongside overseeing day-to-day financial management, with administrative support for some transactional tasks, you will bring a strong financial perspective to organisational planning, funding development, Board reporting, and decision-making. 

This role goes beyond producing financial information. You will be expected to: 

• interpret financial data 

• identify risks and opportunities 

• communicate complex financial information clearly to non-finance colleagues 

• provide meaningful analysis and recommendations 

• contribute to strong financial planning, funding development, and sustainability 

Working closely with the CEO, Treasurer and Fundraising & Development Lead, you will play a key role in strengthening how Kairos understands and communicates the cost, value, and sustainability of its work. 

Who we need

We’re looking for someone who can bring strong financial analysis, sound judgement, and a collaborative, values-led approach. 

The voices of women with lived experience are centred in everything that we do. We encourage lived experience across the whole organisation, including volunteers, staff, senior leadership, and our Board of Trustees. 

We want Kairos to reflect the diversity of the women we support. We actively encourage applications from Black, minoritised and migrant women; women with disabilities; lesbian and bisexual women; and working-class women. You will be welcomed, supported, and respected in a culture that values authenticity, honesty, and sisterhood. 

Please note: 

• This role is restricted to female applicants under Schedule 9 of the Equality Act 2010 

• An enhanced DBS (Disclosure Barring Service) disclosure will be required for this role 

• Applicants will need an unrestricted right to work in the UK

We’ll be reviewing applications as they come in and may invite candidates to interview before the closing date, so early applications are encouraged. 

Working at Kairos 

Kairos is a values-led, relational organisation. The way we work internally reflects the way we work alongside women — with compassion, honesty, accountability, and care. We recognise that this is emotionally and professionally demanding work, and we are committed to creating a supportive, reflective, and sustainable working environment for our team. 

We offer: 

• A strong, values-driven culture rooted in feminist principles and collective support 

• A commitment to staff wellbeing, including: 

• 1 paid wellbeing hour per week (pro rata) 

• Wellbeing shutdown between Christmas and New Year 

• Access to an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) 

• A generous annual leave allowance 

• The ability to apply for a Blue Light discount card 

• A supportive and reflective team culture, including regular opportunities for learning and development 

• Space for reflection, discussion, and shared problem-solving 

• Team connection and celebration, recognising the importance of community within our work 

We are a learning organisation. We are open, reflective, and committed to continually improving how we work — for women, and for each other.

A team worth joining

You’ll join a small, high-performing ICT team that takes pride in the unseen work, enabling others to succeed. Widely regarded as one of the most trusted and collaborative functions in the organisation, we're regularly sought out for insight that goes well beyond IT.

What we're looking for

You're an experienced IT generalist with a broad, practical skillset, and someone who's comfortable holding the full picture of an organisation's technology while diving deep when needed. You may be working in a managed service provider or IT services environment and are ready to channel your expertise into one place, one team and one mission.

It is also a requirement for this post holder to be in sympathy with the aims and values of CMS.
