About Lumos
Lumos is an international children’s charity founded in 2005 by the author J.K. Rowling to end the harmful practice of institutionalisation of children. Lumos’s mission is to fight for every child’s right to a family by transforming care systems around the world. Our vision is for all children to grow up in safe and loving families.
Despite clear evidence of the harms of institutionalisation, an estimated 5.4 million children worldwide continue to live in institutions. Separated from their families and communities, these children are deprived of the love, attention and opportunities they need to thrive. Our three-pronged approach is to prevent family separation, to protect children and to promote care reform. We’ve made important progress in closing harmful institutions and reuniting children with their families. And where children are unable to live with their birth families, we promote alternative family-based care, such as kinship care and quality foster care. Thanks to our tireless efforts alongside many other champions of care reform, the harms of institutionalisation are now more widely understood. A global movement is underway and the UN, the EU and some large development agencies have joined individual countries in pledging to change how they care for vulnerable children. We are committed to ensuring that global policy commitments are translated into local action, leading to sustainable change for vulnerable children.

This is a true business partner role; you’ll need to see the bigger picture and contribute at board level, while still being able to roll your sleeve up and strengthen day-to-day financial operations. Building financial awareness and capability across all departments will be key too, developing and upskilling teams to ensure financial thinking is at the heart of decision-making across the business.
This is your chance to be part of something special. You’ll join a passionate leadership team who are committed to creating positive social change through education and inclusion programmes that empower individuals, build confidence, and unlock potential.
You’ll bring strategic financial expertise to the table, helping to ensure that funds are used wisely and well, allowing these life-changing programmes to continue, grow, and evolve.
This isn’t just about the numbers. You’ll be a key voice at the leadership table, influencing decisions, challenging thinking, and helping shape the future direction of the organisation.
What you’ll be getting stuck into:
• Acting as a strategic finance partner to the CEO and leadership team - your insight will shape plans, drive decisions, and keep the mission on track.
• Leading on all financial reporting, planning, forecasting, and risk management - keeping the board, Trustees, and senior leaders fully informed.
• Ensuring robust financial controls, compliance, and governance across the charity.
• Leading the charge on data and insights - including developing meaningful KPIs, social value metrics, and an annual Impact Report that tells the real story of the difference being made.
• Managing the charity’s use of Salesforce and looking at how data can be used even more effectively to support decision-making.
• Keeping a sharp eye on VAT returns, payroll, gift aid, pension schemes, and investment administration.
• Line managing and supporting a small Finance team and succession planning to keep the team thriving.
• Business partnering with Heads of Department, helping each function understand the numbers and make smart, informed choices.
What they’re looking for:
• Proven experience in a senior finance role where you’ve combined strategic leadership with a hands-on approach.
• ACCA, CIMA, ACA, CIPFA (or similar) qualified.
• Confident working with Xero (or similar accounting software) and the Microsoft 365 suite.
• Skilled at translating financial data into plain English for non-finance colleagues - making the complex simple.
• A solid understanding of financial risk management, including how cybersecurity, fraud controls, and financial risks interact.
• Experience leading audits, preparing statutory accounts, and presenting at Board or Trustee level.
You’ll fit right in if you are:
• A strong communicator and influencer - able to build trust at every level.
• A strategic thinker who can see the bigger picture while staying close to the detail.
• Solutions-focused, proactive, and calm under pressure.
• Resilient, adaptable, and not afraid to challenge the status quo.
• Someone who leads with heart, champions collaboration, and believes in the power of purpose-driven work.
What’s in it for you?
Alongside a competitive salary and generous benefits, this is an opportunity to genuinely make an impact. You’ll play a critical role in sustaining and growing work that changes lives for the better — and you’ll do it alongside a leadership team who believe in what they do, care about each other, and are serious about making a difference.
