Generous Giving Manager
Canterbury, Kent
£36,397 pa plus excellent benefits
35 hours per week
The Generous Giving Manager is a very exciting and influential role at the Diocese, as you will build on the strong and energetic foundations within our two-person Generous Giving Team to strengthen the financial sustainability of local churches by encouraging generosity in time, talents and financial giving.
Working closely with deaneries, parishes and their leadership teams, you will identify local challenges and opportunities for generous giving, sharing innovative giving practices to help parishes and deaneries develop creative and effective ways to resource their mission.
Communicating clearly and inspiringly the principles of Christian giving to diverse audiences, you will keep up to date with National Church resources, promoting and supporting a wide range of giving methods such as the Parish Giving Scheme (PGS), online and contactless giving. You will also offer guidance to parish officers for resources on giving campaigns, legacies and grant funding.
This is an ideal role for someone with a good understanding of church life, a passion for helping local churches thrive, a strong commitment to community engagement and an understanding of generosity grounded in Christian teaching.
With demonstrable experience in fundraising or parish ministry, you should bring an awareness of the financial and missional challenges facing churches today, particularly in rural contexts.
With an understanding of the Church of England’s structures, ethos, and range of traditions, you will have the proven ability to plan, advise on and lead giving or fundraising programmes in a not-for-profit or charitable context. You should also have a clear understanding of the teaching which underpins the Christian principles of giving.
Your motivational and collaborative approach across a variety of settings, combined with your outstanding interpersonal skills and natural ability at rapport building will ensure you are able to generate and develop creative, solution-focused ideas, engaging and inspiring individuals and groups, both in person and online.
Typically, you will operate during office hours but will need to adjust your working pattern in order to meet with parishes in the evenings and/or occasionally attend their Sunday worship, so the ability to travel to remote locations and work flexibly is a necessity.
Canterbury Diocese is the oldest diocese in England, stretching from Maidstone to Thanet, the Isle of Sheppey to the Romney Marsh. We have 350 miles of coastline with historic ports and seaside resorts, alongside rural communities, market towns and commuter-belt urban developments. Affluent areas often sit alongside pockets of major deprivation, offering an exciting and challenging mission context.
At the heart of all we do is a vision of transformation for ourselves and our communities: no one can encounter God and remain unchanged. In the Diocese of Canterbury, we want to increasingly become a Christian community transformed through encounter with Christ, growing and overflowing to transform and bless the families, homes and communities we serve: Changed Lives, Changing Lives.
All appointments are subject to acceptable pre-appointment checks inclusive of Right to Work in the United Kingdom, references and relevant background checks applicable to the role.
Closing date: 9 February 2026.

Finance underpins everything we do at B Lab UK. As we continue to grow the B Corp movement, the way we manage our resources, systems and financial insight matters more than ever. As Finance Manager, you’ll be at the heart of that work — ensuring strong financial operations, robust controls and clear reporting that enable our teams to make confident, values-led decisions.
This is a role for someone who enjoys combining technical expertise with collaboration and purpose. You’ll work closely with colleagues across the organisation, acting as a trusted finance partner while continuously improving how we plan, report and operate. In return, you’ll have the opportunity to help shape a financially resilient organisation that exists to use business as a force for good.
B Lab UK is part of the global B Corp movement, with the mission to inspire and enable people to use business as a force for good. Certified B Corps seek to redefine success in business by putting social and environmental impact on a par with profit. There are now over 10,000 B Corps spanning 102 countries and 160+ sectors, with many well-known brands including Patagonia, The Guardian, Giff Gaff and Divine Chocolate. 2,700 of those businesses are in the UK.
As Finance Manager, you’ll lead the day-to-day finance operations at B Lab UK, ensuring high-quality financial reporting, strong controls and effective oversight of transactional finance. Reporting to the Head of Finance, you’ll oversee our outsourced accounting service, manage our in-house Accounts Receivable function, and play a key role in budgeting, forecasting, audit and financial planning.
Working collaboratively as a strategic partner, you’ll help embed efficient and effective ways of working that support organisational growth, sustainability and impact.
What you’ll be doing
• Managing and liaising with our outsourced accounting service to ensure accurate and timely financial records.
• Overseeing invoicing, income collection and aged debt reporting.
• Preparing monthly management accounts, including analysis and narrative for budget-holders and the Leadership Team.
• Developing and maintaining financial procedures and controls to protect B Lab UK’s assets.
• Supporting financial planning, including budgeting, forecasting and financial modelling.
• Providing clear financial insight to support strategic and operational decision-making.
• Supporting the annual audit process and statutory accounts under Charity SORP.
• Line managing the Senior Finance Officer and Credit Controller, supporting their development and performance.
• Contributing to Finance & Operations projects, including systems and process improvements.
The kind of things we’re looking for…
• A qualified accountant (ACCA, CIMA or equivalent experience) who is committed to ongoing professional development and raising the bar in their practice.
• Strong experience preparing management accounts and confidently explaining financial information to non-finance colleagues in a clear, supportive way.
• Demonstrable experience establishing, improving and maintaining robust financial controls and processes.
• Experience of budgeting, forecasting and financial modelling, with an improvement-focused approach that looks beyond the status quo.
• A solid understanding of charity finance, including statutory accounts, VAT and audit processes (or the motivation and capability to develop this quickly).
• Proven ability to line manage and support a small team, bringing out the best in others and fostering collaboration.
• Strong communication skills, with the confidence and integrity to guide stakeholders through complex financial matters.
• An analytical, solutions-focused mindset, with experience developing systems or processes that help teams go further together.
• A clear commitment to justice, equity, diversity and inclusion, and to being a force for good through your work.
• A belief in the power of finance and business to contribute to a more just, inclusive and sustainable future.
