Job description

Finance Manager / Director - Cardiff - £36,000 - £45,000 DOE

Headway Cardiff and South East Wales help 500–600 people a year rebuild their lives after acquired brain injury (ABI). As demand grows, they're looking for a Finance Manager / Director to take charge of the back office — finance, payroll and systems — so their small senior team can spend more time where it matters most.

This isn't a desk-bound manager's or director's post. It's a hands-on role at the centre of a small, agile charity. You'll own the budget, run payroll, keep the numbers straight, and become the third senior decision-maker who can hold things together when it counts. You'll report directly to the CEO and line-manage two administrators.

You don't need a charity background, and you don't need to be a qualified accountant. What matters is genuine confidence with financial detail, the ability to pick up new systems fast, and the judgement to take real responsibility.

Full details of the role, what to expect from the process, and how to apply are in our candidate brief:
