-
Supporting with finance projects which make our finance systems work more efficiently, simply and sustainably e.g. helping to update our budget spreadsheets and approach to budgeting, or moving to a new bank
-
Supporting the Head of Finance with budgets, financial planning and reports and any other ad hoc finance tasks

Excellence is important to you and it shows in your work. Whatever you do, you do it to a high standard
-

- Good project management skills with demonstrable experience of managing all areas of project, and general resource management.

- Partner with Xcess, a national surplus food network, to oversee haulage of surplus food into Birmingham.
- Support the development of a city-wide network to improve coordination collaboration and efficiency in surplus food redistribution.
- Work closely in partnership with and provide cover for the Surplus Food Lead at the Markets.
