Epic at a Glance:
At Epic, we strive to build a world where children and youth - no matter their race, gender, sexual orientation or place of birth - have access to a future full of promise and opportunity. We are a global foundation backing groundbreaking non-profits around the world - the changemakers and innovators that are transforming the lives of children and youth and protecting our planet for generations to come.
Groundbreaking non-profits often fall short of smart money to drive impact. Donors want to give more, but are held back because they lack trust, time, and knowledge. Epic bridges the gap between the social entrepreneurs forging solutions to today’s pressing challenges, and the individuals and businesses who want to pool their resources to drive positive change. We curate and monitor highly-vetted portfolios of organisations that we back in order to foster lasting change. We operate strictly on a pro bono basis: 100% of donations received go directly to the organizations in our portfolio.
Now in our 10th year, we have mobilised over $91 million and supported 55 organizations in 11 countries across 4 continents, since 2015.
If you're passionate about making a difference, if you're driven by purpose, and if you're ready to be a force for good in the world, then Epic Foundation is the place for you. Join us in our quest to create a more just, equitable, and compassionate world.

About King George & Queen’s Hospitals Charity
King George & Queen’s Hospitals Charity exists to make a real difference for patients, families, and staff across King George Hospital in Ilford and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We raise vital funds to enhance hospital environments, support staff wellbeing, and improve the quality of care and experience for our communities.
Now entering an exciting new chapter, we are transitioning into a fully independent NHS charity — with a new Board of Trustees and the freedom to define our own strategy, build new partnerships, and expand our impact. As we establish our independent structure, this is a pivotal moment to join a small, dedicated team committed to creating a lasting legacy for local people.
Our vision is to help everyone who comes through our hospitals experience exceptional care, comfort, and compassion. Everything we do is guided by our values of collaboration, integrity, and community — ensuring every pound raised translates into meaningful change for those who need it most.
About the Role
As Finance Manager, you will play a key leadership role at the heart of the charity’s transformation. Reporting to the Chief Executive, you will oversee all aspects of financial management, governance, and reporting — ensuring the charity’s financial integrity and sustainability as we move to independence and beyond.
This is a unique opportunity for a proactive and strategic finance professional who enjoys being both hands-on and high-impact. You’ll help design and implement new systems, establish strong controls, and shape the financial framework that will underpin the charity’s growth and success for years to come.
Key Responsibilities

- Maintain Sage systems, streamline processes, and develop fit-for-purpose financial policies and procedures.
- Provide clear, insightful reporting to the CEO and Board of Trustees to inform strategic decisions.
- Manage restricted and unrestricted funds, fundraising income and grant reporting.
- Oversee investments and reserves in collaboration with external advisors.
- Partner with fundraising colleagues to maximise income impact and ensure financial sustainability.

What We’re Looking For
- Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) — essential.
- Solid experience in charity finance, ideally within a fundraising or grant-giving environment.
- Strong technical knowledge of charity accounting (SORP), restricted funds, and Gift Aid.
- Confident working independently in a sole finance role, with both strategic and operational responsibilities.
- Experience building or improving financial systems during periods of change.
- Excellent communication and influencing skills — able to advise trustees and non-finance colleagues alike.
- Hands-on and proactive — comfortable processing invoices one day and presenting strategy the next.
- Familiarity with Sage (or similar) and strong Excel skills.
Why Join Us
- This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of a newly independent charity — one with a strong foundation, clear mission, and the ambition to make a difference every day.
- You’ll join a supportive and close-knit team working in partnership with NHS colleagues and our communities. We offer flexible hybrid working, professional development opportunities, and the chance to see the direct impact of your work across both hospitals.
- If you’re inspired by the idea of helping to build a modern, effective, and compassionate charity from the ground up — we’d love to hear from you.
