- Staying abreast of key issues facing the disability and transport sectors, to understand how these shape and influence applications to Motability’s grant programmes.
- Support delivery of non-traditional funding mechanisms such as challenge prizes, research calls, or commercial commissioning approaches, contributing to assessment and management.

Overview
Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time and the ability to capture, transport and store or utilise carbon dioxide will be crucial to ensure a sustainable, competitive and equitable transition to a climate neutral Europe.
The CCSA is the trade association accelerating the commercial deployment of Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (or CCUS) through advocacy and collaboration. Our ambition is to see CCUS developed and deployed at the pace and scale necessary to achieve net zero emissions by 2050 and deliver sustainable growth across regions and nations. We represent a wide variety of organisations with an interest in CCUS across many applications to decarbonise heavy industries, power, and hydrogen production, and remove carbon dioxide directly from the atmosphere.
The CCSA operates as a not-for-profit company, overseen by a board of elected members. We have 20 staff across our London & Brussels office. We turnover around £3m. Our income comes from membership fees from our 120 members and sponsorship at our conferences.
The CCSA has grown by 100% over the past few years, as we have grown in profile and impact supporting the developing industry across Europe. For maximum impact we have focused on delivery, however, we are now looking at enhancing some of our internal systems including our finances. We have a UK registered company and a Belgium registered company, external accountants and bank accounts for each and a recently dedicated internal finance resource. We have some support from outsourced finance support, we anticipate this would continue, at least initially. In terms of accounting packages, we use Xero in the UK and Yuki in the Belgium office.
The role
We are a dynamic organisation looking for a part-time finance manager. We have put some structures and processes in place, but we are looking for somebody that will enjoy improving finance processes and helping make things easier for our teams in both offices. The role will be a stand-alone finance role without any admin support, so we are looking for a self-starter who works independently and is both strategic and operational and won’t mind invoicing/chasing debt.
The role will be managed by the CEO and other members of the senior leadership team.
Responsibilities
Finance management
- Preparation of accurate and timely monthly management accounts, including reconciliation across both UK and BE offices accounting systems and comparing the forecast out-turn for the year against budget

- Supporting the CEO with documents/reporting for the quarterly Board and Finance and Risk Committee meetings
- As finance controller, develop and enhance the CCSA’s finance processes, compliance and systems, especially using tech solutions
- When required, liaise with the external auditors, ensuring that timescales are communicated and agreed, and the auditors’ requirements are met to ensure timely completion of their work
Finance operations
- Preparation and sending of sales invoices (c200 a year) and chasing aged debt
- Oversight of bill payments and expenses
- Process and post month-end journals
- Running the monthly UK and maybe BE payroll including liaising with payroll providers
- Ensuring payroll taxes, VAT and other taxes are filed and settled on time.
- Act as a point of contact with accountants, banks, service providers, and suppliers
- Provide finance support to the wider staff team
- Other ad hoc finance/operations duties as required
About you
The CCSA is very fast paced and has a ‘start up’ feel, so we are looking for somebody that is:
- Pragmatic and hands-on
- Able to work quickly and flexibly
- Strategic and eager to drive improvements and efficiencies
- Trustworthy with high integrity
- Able to communicate about financials issues especially to lay staff
- A self-starter who works proactively and independently
- Organised and able to plan work
- Eligible to work in the UK
In terms of experience we are looking somebody that is:
- A qualified accountant CA/ACA/ACCA/CIMA
- Has strong management accounting and bookkeeping experience
- Experienced in working in a similar role, ideally within a small company environment
- Ideally experienced with Xero and/or other accountancy-based systems
- IT literate with strong Excel skills
- Should have experience of working across countries and awareness of consolidating across different currencies.
- Maybe interested in sustainability, CCUS, working for a not-for-profit or (large corporation) membership body
Salary
Salary: £45,000 – £50,000 FTE (£22,500-£25,000 actual salary when pro rata)
Location/hours
This is a part-time role of 2.5 days a week (18.75 hours) and we are flexible as to how these are spread over the week. We operate a flexible, hybrid policy in both offices and for this role the successful candidate could spend 1 day a week in our comfortable London office near beautiful St James Park, SE1, or a remote role based in the UK, with quarterly trips to the London office. There may also be the occasional requirement to travel to our Brussels office a couple of times a year, to deal with any in-person finance compliance/banking issues. We are keen to accommodate the right candidate and open to discussion.
