REF-223590
Together, the charities Sands and Tommy’s have formed a Joint Policy Unit (JPU) focussed on achieving policy change that will save more babies’ lives during pregnancy and the neonatal period and on tackling inequalities in loss, so that everyone can benefit from the best possible outcomes.
The JPU’s mission is to secure policy change that will reduce rates of miscarriage, stillbirth, pre-term birth and neonatal death, and to work to eliminate inequalities in these outcomes.
While there is widespread agreement on the need for change to improve the safety of maternity and neonatal services, what that change looks like is not clear. To save more babies’ lives we believe that a continued focus is required, and that governments should set new commitments to reduce perinatal mortality and preterm births, focused on matching the best-performing countries in Europe.
This role will be crucial to the continued success of the JPU unit; leading, shaping and coordinating all the unit’s work.
We are looking for an independent and assertive problem-solver, a policy expert who can manage multiple priorities, take the initiative, lead the national conversation and is as excited as we are about taking the helm of this venture for both of our organisations.

You will have considerable experience across research, data analysis, policy development, public affairs and communications. Additionally, you will be well-versed in research and data management, including analysing complex data and evaluating policy developments.
Experience of being a member of a senior management team with successful, significant and relevant management and leadership experience is also essential.

About Tommy’s
Tommy’s is the UK’s leading pregnancy research charity. For over 30 years, we’ve worked to stop the heartbreak and devastation of baby loss and to make pregnancy and birth safe—for everyone. Founded by two obstetricians in a hospital cupboard, we have grown into the largest UK charity funder of pregnancy research, shaping national guidelines, funding pioneering clinics, and supporting families at every stage of their journey.
Our mission is simple but ambitious: to save babies’ lives. We do this through world-leading research, expert information, partnerships with the NHS, and campaigning for policy change. Every year we fund four major research centres, provide trusted pregnancy support to thousands, and lead campaigns that challenge inequities in maternity care.
The next stage of our journey is about driving even greater impact. We are focused on four priorities:
- Growing evidence, because baby loss is not inevitable.
- Improving care, so everyone receives the support they deserve.
- Tackling inequalities, because all families deserve the same chance of a healthy pregnancy.
- Mobilising for change, to make pregnancy safer nationwide.
About the Role
As Head of Finance, you will play a pivotal role in ensuring Tommy’s financial sustainability and long-term success. Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, you will lead and develop a high-performing finance team, oversee strategic financial planning and reporting, and drive forward a programme of finance transformation.
This is a hands-on yet strategic role, offering the chance to shape financial systems and processes, strengthen financial literacy across the organisation, and ensure robust compliance and control. You’ll be a trusted partner to the leadership team, providing insight and challenge to help Tommy’s deliver its ambitious goals.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead and develop the finance function, ensuring strong financial stewardship and organisational accountability.
- Deliver accurate and timely management accounts, budgets, forecasts, and statutory reporting.
- Oversee financial controls, operations, audit, and compliance, ensuring best practice in charity accounting, taxation, and investment management.
- Partner with leaders across the organisation, building financial capability and supporting effective decision-making.
- Drive the transformation of finance systems and processes, including the implementation of a new finance system.
What We’re Looking For
- A qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent).
- Strong technical knowledge of finance operations, governance, and compliance, ideally within the charity sector.
- Proven ability to lead and develop teams, and to build collaborative relationships across an organisation.
- Strong analytical, problem-solving and communication skills, with the ability to translate financial information for non-finance colleagues.
- A proactive and solutions-focused mindset, with experience of leading change.
Why Join Tommy’s?
At Tommy’s, you’ll be part of a mission-driven organisation that puts people first—our beneficiaries, supporters, and staff. We are proud to offer a culture that values wellbeing, development and balance, with a wide range of benefits including:
- 25 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays (increasing with service)
- Hybrid working, with flexibility built in
- Enhanced maternity and parental leave pay
- Pension contributions, life insurance, and employee assistance programme
- Sabbatical leave, wellbeing initiatives, and vibrant colleague community events
