About the role

We are seeking a dynamic Head of Systems, Data and Insights to drive digital innovation, champion evidence-based decision making, and lead a high-performing team.

You’ll set the direction for data, systems, and insights, while also rolling up your sleeves to design processes, deliver technical solutions, and unlock the power of supporter insight.

You’ll be the technical lead for Advancement, owning our alumni database (Raiser’s Edge NXT) and related systems, and ensuring they are optimised to support smarter fundraising, deeper alumni engagement, and more efficient operations.

• Own and optimise Raiser’s Edge NXT and related platforms, ensuring compliance with UK GDPR and other regulations.
• Deliver insights and reporting that empower colleagues across the institution to make strategic, data-driven decisions.
• Champion governance and compliance, ensuring data quality, security, and resilience.
• Collaborate and influence across the University, representing Advancement in cross-institutional initiatives and equipping colleagues to self-serve data and insights.
• Balance strategy and execution—from setting long-term direction to personally delivering high-impact technical projects.

If you’re excited by the challenge of leading strategically while delivering hands-on technical impact, we’d love to hear from you.

About you

We’re looking for someone who brings:

• Extensive experience with relational databases (Raiser’s Edge knowledge is a plus).
• A proven track record of delivering complex IT and change management projects.
• Strong leadership skills, with experience managing teams and developing strategies.
• Expertise in data protection, compliance, and governance.
• Technical fluency in business intelligence platforms (Power BI experience an advantage).
• Excellent communication and influencing skills, with the ability to engage and influence stakeholders at all levels.

Overview

At Young Roots, we want to see a compassionate and welcoming society for young people seeking safety. We work alongside young refugees and asylum seekers in the UK, building trusted relationships, providing practical and emotional support and promoting young people's rights and power. 

Our youth hubs and casework are transformative for young refugees, enabling young people who have fled danger, experienced traumatic journeys, and are often here alone to find community and connection, a space to be a young person, and access support to address a range of practical challenges they face. We also draw on our evidence from working every day with young refugees and asylum seekers to call for change to the laws and policies which are harming young people. 

About the role

This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced finance professional to play a vital role in ensuring Young Roots can continue delivering life-changing support to young people seeking safety.

As our Finance Lead*, you'll be the go-to finance expert, keeping day-to-day operations running smoothly while translating complex financial data into accessible insights that empower our teams and leadership to make informed decisions. You'll manage everything from month-end processes and statutory accounts to cash flow forecasting and funder reporting, ensuring financial integrity through robust systems and controls.

This isn't just number-crunching – you'll be a trusted finance partner, working collaboratively across the organisation to support effective budget management, shape future initiatives, and ultimately help us maximise our impact for young refugees and asylum seekers.

The role requires proven experience in charity finance, including independently managing month-end processes, producing statutory accounts in accordance with Charity SORP, and managing grant funding. You'll need an accounting qualification (AAT Level 4, full- or part-qualified ACCA/CIMA, or equivalent by experience) and hands-on experience with accounting systems such as Xero, Sage, or QuickBooks.

Most importantly, we're looking for someone who can communicate financial information in ways that make sense to non-finance audiences, work confidently with senior stakeholders, and is motivated by supporting our mission.

We welcome applications from candidates with diverse career paths. If you've gained relevant skills through non-traditional routes or timeframes, we encourage you to apply. 

This is a permanent role offering 21-35 hours per week (0.6-1.0 FTE); we're open to any hours within this range. The role is hybrid, with two days at one of our London offices. Salary is £40,973-£45,199 per annum pro rata.

*Other organisations may call this role Finance Manager, Finance Business Partner or Financial Controller. 

How to apply

Please submit your CV and a personal statement by the closing date outlining how you would be a great fit for the role. 

Your personal statement should be no more than 800 words, answering the following questions:

1. What is your motivation for working with Young Roots?
2. What is your motivation for applying for this role specifically?
3. What skills and experience would you bring that will enable you to be successful in this role?
