We are looking for someone who is:

Working at FitzRoy

You will join a small, friendly communications team with big ambitions. This role will suit someone who enjoys a mix of planning, writing, relationship-building, story-gathering and hands-on delivery.

You will help us show the difference good support makes – and help ensure the voices, experiences and achievements of people with learning disabilities, autism and mental health needs are seen and heard.

We believe that fair and equal access to justice is the foundation of our society, and the quality of your legal representation shouldn’t depend on the depth of your pockets, but the merits of your case.

We exist because committed barristers care about access to justice for everyone. We have been facilitating free legal help since 1996 and have grown into a thriving organisation, working with almost 4,500 volunteer barristers.

Who we are

This is an opportunity to join a small organisation with a huge mission – to change the UK’s relationship with alcohol, starting with children and young people. In 18 years, we have established more than 360 partnerships across the UK with a common aim: to empower local communities to develop evidence-based strategies to tackle underage drinking.

We are looking for a part-time Finance & Governance Manager who will play a key part in a small, close-knit head team. The successful candidate will need to be both hands-on and collaborative, working closely with the head office team, supporting our eight regional advisers, and supporting the Board on finance and governance updates.

• Enjoys combining finance with governance and organisational support.
• Is hands-on, detail-oriented and proactive.
• Takes pride in clear, professional presentation of financial information.
• Is comfortable as an integral part of a small team rather than operating at arm’s length.
