Job Information

This exciting role in our award-winning External Affairs department will work across policy and public affairs work in England. You will fight for the hospice sector and people who need their support, helping us to create a country where no one misses out on the care they need at the end of their lives.

This is a significant time for hospice and end of life care. 

Hospices across the UK are in the worst financial situation they have faced for 20 years. The funding crisis means hospices are cutting services and making redundancies. 

Our campaigning efforts have recently led to £125m in short term funding for the hospice sector and a commitment to a Modern Service Framework for palliative care and end of life care. As well as a spotlight on hospices in the 10 year health plan and unprecedented parliamentary scrutiny of the way hospices are funded. 

The momentum around palliative care and hospices mean there is no shortage of opportunities to influence the policy and political agenda.

We have strong influence in Parliament and have built significant interest in hospice care among policymakers. We are an important voice in the conversation around Assisted Dying, which will have a significant impact on palliative and end of life care. 

With this momentum and opportunity, we are looking for a talented and committed Policy and Public Affairs Manager to help us shape the future of palliative and end of life care. 

We are looking for a proactive and driven policy and public affairs professional. You will be curious about how best to improve people’s experiences of death, dying and bereavement and strengthen the contribution of the hospice sector to this. 

You will have excellent influencing and communication skills and sharp instinctsthat enable you to quickly understand and analyse the impact of external developments. As well as a collaborative mindset and commitment to building coalitions to maximise our impact. 

You will provide leadership but must also be willing to pitch in at all levels to get things done. Excellent project management skills will mean you can identify where our resource is best spent and how to delegate tasks. 

This is your chance to play a key role in creating a country where no one misses out on the care they need at the end of their lives.

Are you an experienced senior finance leader ready to make an immediate impact in an international, mission-driven organisation? We are seeking a strategic, hands-on Interim Head of Finance to lead the finance function for a dynamic international NGO with a significant US presence. This is a rare opportunity to guide finance operations across multiple jurisdictions, including the UK and US, and support frontline programmes tackling critical global challenges.

About the role
Reporting to the MD for Finance & Operations, you will provide decisive, calm leadership to a high-performing finance team, ensuring robust financial stewardship across the organisation. You will take ownership of financial operations, controls, reporting, and audits, working closely with senior leadership and the Board. Your strategic insight will help shape financial planning and reporting, while your collaborative approach will build confidence in finance across the organisation.

Key responsibilities

• Lead the day-to-day operations of the finance team across the UK and overseas branches
• Ensure accurate, timely reporting and compliance with statutory and donor requirements
• Oversee audits in multiple jurisdictions, including US and UK accounts
• Manage budgeting, forecasting, and long-term financial planning
• Build and maintain robust financial controls, policies, and processes
• Lead, mentor, and motivate a team of six finance professionals, including managers
• Act as a key partner to the senior leadership team and Board, providing financial insight to support strategic decision-making

What we're looking for

• Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, CIPFA or equivalent)
• Proven senior finance leadership experience in an international charity, NGO, or grant-funded organisation
• Strong experience managing US accounts, audits, and compliance processes (a significant portion of the organisation's income comes from US donors)
• Hands-on experience with UK Charity SORP, statutory accounts, restricted/unrestricted fund accounting, and donor reporting
• Experience overseeing finance operations for overseas entities or branch offices
• Strong people management skills, including managing managers
• Able to operate confidently at senior leadership and Board level
• Comfortable stepping into complex, fast-paced environments and delivering immediate results

Personal qualities
You are pragmatic, solutions-focused, and able to balance operational detail with strategic oversight. You communicate clearly and effectively with finance and non-finance colleagues alike, building trust quickly and inspiring confidence across the organisation.

Why join?
This is a unique opportunity to influence the finance function of a mission-driven international NGO protecing the rights of the most vulnerable. You'll gain hands-on experience with US accounts, multi-jurisdictional audits, and high-level reporting, all while working alongside a collaborative, values-driven leadership team.

Benefits

• 25 days holiday + public holidays + 3 additional Christmas holidays
• 10% non-contributory pension scheme
• Season ticket loan and cycle scheme
• Flexible and hybrid working (2 office days per week)
• Possibility of working part-time - 4 days per week

If you are a senior finance professional with international experience, ideally including US operations, who thrives in fast-moving, high-impact environments and are available from mid-end of March, please apply today!
