Job description

Goodman Masson are delighted to be partnered with The Scouts to recruit for an Interim Financial Controller on a 12 month Fixed Term Contract (MAT cover). 

The Scouts actively engages and supports young people in their personal development, empowering them to make a positive contribution to society. 

As their Financial Controller, you will lead the Financial Accounting and Payroll team. This hands-on, strategic role requires a leader capable of driving operational efficiency in transactional accounting while managing the complexity of statutory reporting, audit, and internal control frameworks.

It is essential that you have a strong working knowledge of Charity SORP and have led financial control teams within a similar sized organisation. 

Key Responsibilities: 

  • Oversee all day-to-day accounting operations (AP, AR, GL, Banking) and drive efficiency. Ensure the integrity, controls, and continuous improvement of all finance systems.

  • Be the primary lead for the production of annual statutory accounts and the management of the year-end audit. Ensure full compliance with tax obligations (VAT, Corporation Tax) and external regulations.

  • Design, implement, and maintain a robust and effective internal control framework, ensuring processes are documented and controls are strictly followed.

  • Lead cash flow management, debt collection, liaise with investment managers, and report on compliance with the financial reserves policy.

  • Manage and motivate the Financial Accounting Team and oversee the Payroll Operations Manager, ensuring an accurate, timely, and compliant payroll and pensions service.

  • Act as a key advisor to employees and trustees, specifically managing the fixed asset register and partnering on capital expenditure budgets.

Essentials: 

  • A recognised, full Professional Accounting Qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA).

  • 5-10 years’ Post-Qualification Experience (PQE) in a senior financial accounting or audit position with a demonstrable track record of success in managing complex financial operations.

  • Experience working within a charity environment and strong knowledge of charity SORP. 
  • Proven experience in statutory accounts production, managing audits, implementing strong internal controls, and overseeing transactional teams.

  • Strong change management skills and a passion for driving continuous process and system improvements.

Salary is up to £68,000 + Excellent Benefits. 

The Scouts are based in Gilwell Park, Chingford, London. Hybrid working with 2 days per week in the office. 

Nearest train station is Chingford Rail Station (25 minutes from Liverpool Street). A regular shuttle bus service operates from Chingford station to the Scouts Office (Gilwell Park). 5 minute journey time.
