About the opportunity:
 
Our client is proud to partner with incredible organisations who are making a genuine difference every day. This opportunity is no exception.
 
They’re looking for a Finance Director who brings a great mix of strategic thinking, commercial acumen, and operational excellence. Someone who can shape future plans with a clear eye on opportunity and risk, while ensuring robust processes, controls, and best practice are firmly embedded.
 
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.
