Salary - £55,000 per annum pro rata

Contract – Fixed term (6 months). Flexible part-time, up to 14 hours per week

 

Farms for City Children offers children and young people a week in the heart of the British countryside staying on one of our farms, where they are immersed in the natural world of food, farming, and country life.  During their stay,  they participate in the seasonal tasks of the day: sowing, growing and harvesting in our kitchen gardens, caring for livestock and looking after the land, and a variety of tasks designed to build greater connection with the natural world.

About the Role

The Head of Finance is the financial lead for the Charity with responsibility for driving and implementing good charity financial practice, producing robust financial reports and financial forecasts in line with the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), as well as providing timely provision of financial information and advice to the Chief Executive and Board to inform strategic decision making.

The interim Head of Finance will support the induction of the new CEO and advise on strategy for the management of the Charity finances beyond the initial 6-month period. The successful candidate will be qualified and experienced in charity finance, demonstrate strong leadership and communication skills and will also have a need at times to be hands on in supporting the routine financial transactions of the organisation.

Alongside the leadership and advisory functions of the role, the Head of Finance is also responsible for the management of the wider Finance team, working closely as a finance business partner with colleagues on the SLT and Farm School Managers, specifically:

  • oversee the finance related work at each of our farms through the Farm School Managers and Farm Office Managers; effectively communicating financial information to non-financial audiences at all levels of the charity;
  • the continuous improvement of the financial provision, demonstrating best practice and leading on efficiencies in financial management.

 For full details about the role, please see the Job Description and Job Information Pack.
