Women at the Well is a support service for women based in the King’s Cross area of central London.

The Eve Appeal is the UK's leading gynaecological cancer charity. Our aim is to prevent gynae cancers from developing in the first place, but if they do develop, we want to make sure they’re detected early so more people survive their diagnosis.

The role of Finance Officer is critical to our success, working across all parts of the charity to support our life-saving work in cancer prevention.

This role is central to supporting our programmes and fundraising teams delivering to the highest standards. Specific tasks include processing all income accurately and promptly, so donors can be thanked for their donations, as well as raising invoices and managing expenses. This role serves as the first port of call for finance queries across the charity.
