Wessex Cancer Trust is a vibrant charity, supporting people affected by cancer across Hampshire, Dorset and the Isle of Wight.

In 2014, just over 98,600 people in Wessex were living with or beyond cancer. This number is estimated to increase significantly in the next 20 years. This is partly because of the ageing population and increasing incidence, but also because of increasing survival from cancer. By 2030, it is estimated there will be around 164,700 people in Wessex living with and beyond cancer, a potential increase of approximately 67% (Public Health England, Cancer in Wessex 2017)

Wessex Cancer Trust has recently launched a new strategy to allow us to assist a growing number of people affected by cancer in the coming years and the role of Management Accountant provides key support across finance, HR and IT, most critically, in recording and analysing transactions to provide meaningful and accurate management data.

We offer a vibrant working environment, free parking, flexible hours, a friendly open plan office, and the opportunity to support local people with cancer. To apply please send a cover letter outlining your suitability along with an updated CV. Interviews will be given on a rolling basis.
