Head of Finance and Operations
Salary: £45,000–£50,000 per annum, plus performance-related bonus of up to £5,000 per annum
Location: South London
Contract: Permanent, full-time
Hybrid working: Up to one day per week from home, with additional flexibility possible
We are working with an established arts and education charity to recruit a new Head of Finance and Operations.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a small, ambitious organisation delivering a range of artistic, educational and community programmes. The charity receives income from a diverse mix of public funding, trusts and foundations, individual giving, sponsorship and commercial activity.
Sitting within the Leadership Team and working closely with the Director, this is a genuinely broad role encompassing finance, operations, governance, HR and organisational management.
A key part of the role will be leading the charity’s financial management and planning. You’ll manage the annual budget, produce quarterly management accounts and cash-flow forecasts, oversee VAT returns and work closely with external accountants and auditors on the year-end accounts and audit. You’ll also work with budget holders, senior colleagues, trustees and the Finance, Audit & Risk Committee to ensure strong financial management across the organisation.
We are particularly interested in candidates who have previous experience working within a small charity or similarly sized not-for-profit organisation. This isn’t a role where finance sits in isolation – you’ll need to be comfortable getting into the detail, working across different areas of the organisation and balancing strategic responsibilities with the practical realities of working in a smaller charity.
Strong charity finance experience will therefore be important. You’ll need to understand the complexities of restricted and unrestricted funding, be confident managing and reporting against different funding streams and have a good working knowledge of Charity SORP.
Experience of dealing with funders and their different reporting and monitoring requirements will also be particularly useful.
Alongside finance, you’ll oversee a varied operational remit including building and office management, HR processes, organisational policies and governance. You’ll also support the Board and committees, take responsibility for company secretarial duties and maintain relationships with key funders and stakeholders.
This role would suit someone who enjoys the variety that comes with working in a small charity – practical, organised and collaborative, with the confidence to operate at leadership and trustee level while still being happy to roll their sleeves up when required.
You don’t necessarily need to tick every box. We’re keen to hear from candidates with strong charity finance experience who can demonstrate the ability to manage a broad and varied remit.
The role sits on the Senior Leadership Team, reporting to the Charity Director. You will manage a General Manager and Freelance Bookkeeper.
Fully-qualified and part-qualified ACCA, CIMA or ACA candidates will be considered.
Please send your CV for further consideration.
Closing date: 10am, Monday 21 September 2026.
Our client is a social business on a mission to reduce reoffending through coffee. To achieve this, they deliver barista training both in-custody and in the community, with direct routes into employment in their 12 London coffee shops and roastery. Programme participants are then matched with a caseworker to support their transition from the training room into work. To date they have directly hired over 100 participants and their current known reoffending rate for employed participants is 0%. As a social enterprise, our client thinks differently from other specialty coffee companies - they believe profit powers their purpose, and by roasting, serving, and selling exceptional coffee, they are uniquely positioned to help prison leavers start a new chapter.
The organisation is currently seeking a Head of Service Delivery and Impact to lead their work to reduce reoffending. The role is responsible for the company’s social mission, identifying effective and financially sustainable ways to deepen their impact through both their social enterprise and the organisation's Foundation. The Head of Service Delivery and Impact will oversee training and employment support for programme participants in custody and in the community, whilst shaping the strategy for the Impact Department, ensuring programmes are well-run, measurable and financially disciplined. A key part of the role is strong financial leadership - managing budgets, securing funding, and ensuring the long-term sustainability of Redemption's impact work. The role would suit an experienced third sector leader with a strong track record in programme delivery and fundraising, and a passion for enabling people to succeed.
To apply for this opportunity, you will have significant senior leadership experience within charities or social enterprises. You will have outstanding financial management capability, including developing and managing budgets, understanding unit economics, and rigorously reporting on financial performance. You will have exceptional communication skills with the ability to forge relationships and partnerships for the benefit of service growth and will be commercially astute. Overall, you will be a dynamic senior leader, passionate about delivering high quality future-focussed services that empower and transform people’s lives.
To apply for this exciting opportunity, please initially submit your CV (in Word format). Suitable candidates will then be contacted and will be asked to complete a supporting statement (cover letters are not required at this stage).
Our client is an international and multicultural business with customers, suppliers, and employees from across the globe. Fostering diversity in the workplace is both right and good for business. Gender, belief, ethnicity, origins, disability, sexual orientation, marital status, age or history of incarceration doesn't matter. If you perform, you'll fit in, whoever you are. We welcome applications from people with backgrounds traditionally underrepresented in the specialty coffee industry.
If you have any disability and require reasonable adjustment/s to any part of the process please reach out directly to Victoria at Prospectus.

At the British Heart Foundation, our events do more than fund lifesaving research—they inspire hope, bring communities together, and drive positive change.
We're looking for a Events Executive to help us take our events to the next level.
About the role:
As a Events Executive, you’ll support on the ongoing development of event products, with a focus on continuous improvement. You'll help bring compelling, supporter-focused products and propositions to life for the BHF.
This is a 12-month fixed-term opportunity created to provide additional capacity within our Events team during preparations for the London Marathon 2027. In 2027, the event is expected to operate as a one-off expanded two-day event, creating a temporary increase in workload across the team.
The successful candidate will support the delivery of events already within the British Heart Foundation portfolio. This additional resource will enable other members of the team to focus on work associated with the London Marathon 2027 project.
