Save the Children UK is looking for an impact-focused Finance professional with strong knowledge of donor funding and award management to join us as our Portfolio Support Finance Business Partner.
You'll play a pivotal role working closely with programme teams to ensure restricted funding is planned, managed and reported with integrity, enabling high-impact delivery for children in complex and high-risk environments.
About us
Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave. We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.
About the role
As Portfolio Support Finance Business Partner, you will provide strategic financial leadership to Save the Children UK's restricted portfolio, ensuring donor funds are planned, monitored and reported effectively, compliantly and sustainably.
You will deliver high-quality financial insight, manage risk, strengthen controls and support confident decision-making, while building strong partnerships across programme and finance teams and representing SCUK Finance in donor and external forums.
In this role, you will:
• Provide financial insight and performance oversight across a portfolio of donor-funded awards, delivering monthly reporting, trend analysis and reviews with programme teams to inform strategic decisions.
• Lead risk management and compliance assurance, maintaining strong financial controls, audit readiness and accurate financial data across systems to safeguard donor funds and maintain confidence.
• Manage budgeting and forecasting processes for donor proposals and awards, ensuring robust financial planning and appropriate direct and indirect cost recovery.
• Oversee cashflow and income management, ensuring timely donor claims, accurate billing (including payment-by-results awards) and sufficient liquidity to support uninterrupted programme delivery.
• Act as a trusted business partner, providing financial expertise in external meetings and strengthening financial literacy across programme teams.
• Contribute to cross-organisational and global finance projects, working with colleagues across Save the Children International to improve systems, processes and controls.
About you
You'll bring a high degree of customer and quality orientation, with the ability to remain solution-focused, resilient, and adaptable in a fast-paced and changing environment.
To be successful, it is important that you have:
• A recognised accounting qualification or equivalent professional experience, ideally within the charity, development or humanitarian sector.
• Strong experience of donor funding, compliance requirements, award or contract management, and financial reporting.
• Proven ability to deliver financial planning, budgeting, forecasting and high-quality management accounts and analysis for senior stakeholders.
• Advanced Excel and strong systems capability, with the confidence to work across multiple finance systems.
• Excellent communication and influencing skills, with the ability to explain complex financial information clearly to non-finance colleagues and challenge constructively.
• A proactive, resilient and solution-focused approach, with a strong commitment to safeguarding and ethical financial management.
• Commitment to Save the Children's vision, mission and values.
What we offer you
Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.
• We focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work.
• We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day.
Please note: To avoid disappointment, you are advised to submit your application as soon as possible as we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications are received. This is to ensure that we can manage application levels whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Unfortunately once a vacancy has closed, we are unable to consider further applications.
Location & Ways of Working:
The majority of our roles can be performed remotely in the UK, but at times you will be required to come to your contracted office (usually between 2–4 days per month, depending on the needs of your role, team, or service). For many roles, this is likely to be the minimum required to deliver impact.
This will be discussed and agreed with your manager / team and we encourage candidates to discuss our ways of working in more detail at interview stage.
Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense.
Flexible Working - We are happy to discuss flexible working options at interview.
Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion:
Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think.
We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.
