Our youth clubs and casework are transformative for young refugees, allowing young people who have fled danger, had traumatic journeys and who are often here alone, to find community and connection, have a space to be a young person and access support in addressing a whole range of practical challenges they face. We also draw on our evidence from working every day with young refugees and asylum seekers to call for change to the laws and policies which are harming young people.

- Partner with colleagues across the organisation to support budgeting, funding bids, and full cost recovery
- Oversee payroll and financial operations, ensuring accuracy and efficiency
- Contribute to organisational strategy as part of the Leadership Group
About you
You’ll be a confident and values-driven finance professional who enjoys working collaboratively and making complex information accessible.
You’ll bring:
- Significant experience in a senior finance role within a charity or not-for-profit
- Strong knowledge of charity finance, including SORP, restricted funding, and compliance
- Experience producing management accounts, budgets, and forecasts for non-finance audiences
