Finance and Administration Officer

Who are Guts UK Charity?

People are suffering. People are dying. All because of a lack of knowledge about our guts. 

Guts UK is the only charity that covers all of the digestive system, from ‘top to tail’ covering the gut, the liver and the pancreas. Guts UK works actively and collaboratively with other charities. However, with our own limited resources, we choose to focus particularly on the conditions that have no other specific charity or voice - those illnesses that really are underserved such as pancreatitis, diverticular disease, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), childhood gut and liver disease and digestive cancers.

Our vision is a world where digestive disorders are better understood, better treated and everyone who lives with one gets the support that they need. 

Overall Purpose of the Finance and Administation Officer

This is a pivotal role for the charity in ensuring finances are managed in a timely, accurate and compliant manner. The Finance and Administration Officer will maintain the day-to-day accounts for the charity including bank reconciliations, journal posting and invoicing and supported by our experienced Finance Manager, will be responsible for month-end and quarter-end closure and reporting and will support with the year end audit and reporting.

In addition to the financial responsibilities, this role is critical in providing administrative support for the leadership and wider team. They will support with key HR and admin processes including the onboarding of new staff and trustees and maintaining HR record management.

Who we’re looking for?

If you are a qualified finance technician or you’re part way through  finance or accounting qualifications then this may be the perfect role for you.
