Project Manager - Inside Track

ABOUT US

There are millions of highly educated, well-paid, politically engaged people who care deeply about the world. Every morning, they go to work in professional services firms knowing that the firms they work for and the industries that they are a part of are blockers rather than enablers to a just transition. 

They look for ways to ‘make a difference’ internally but fall at every hurdle. They think about quitting but feel financially tied to their jobs. They become accepting of the fact that things are how they are. They become disillusioned and start to feel helplessness and even shame. They offer little value to the transformation that the world needs and that they themselves yearn for. 

Inside Track supports professionals working within major industries to come together — often in confidential or anonymous settings — to surface insights and build collective power for an equitable, regenerative future.

ABOUT THE ROLE

The role is a Project Manager at a start-up non-profit looking to create a global movement to support senior professionals in powerful industries to - collectively and anonymously - help drive positive change in their industries.

Your job will be to help recruit, facilitate and mobilise corporate ‘Insiders’ to help them transform their industries to support a more just and regenerative world.

We are looking for someone with skills in relationship building, facilitation, research and project management. We are particularly interested in candidates who have expertise working in public health and health inequalities, or who have a background in diversity, equity and inclusion in a corporate setting.

This is an amazing opportunity for someone interested in shaping a new and ambitious organisation, and supporting the development of a new method of civil society organising.

PERSON SPECIFICATION 

We are looking for someone with at least two years of professional experience who is: 

1. Able to work delicately in high trust environments; 
2. Able to work collaboratively with partners; 
3. Energised to search and recruit for Insiders from a ‘cold’ start (e.g. building new relationships on Linkedin, etc.); and
4. Able to help build the ecosystem which we are a part of. 

We will be looking for people who have had to build things from scratch and are used to working with diverse stakeholder groups and holding a strong sense of purpose. 

We are particularly interested in candidates with a background and experience in public health, health inequalities and diversity, equity and inclusion. 

HOW TO APPLY 

Stage 1: Applicants are requested to apply via CharityJob by 10am on 27th October 2025. 

Stage 2: You’ll be invited to submit a full cover letter and/or attend a video call interview with one of our team to discuss your application. 

Stage 3: We will be providing you with exercise (max time commitment 1hr) to complete. 

Stage 4: You’ll be invited to a second interview, likely in person.

TIMELINE

Closing date: 10am on 27th October 2025

Interviews: November 2025

Start date: December 2025 / January 2026

A NOTE ON INCLUSION

We are committed to building a team that reflects a wide range of experiences, backgrounds and perspectives.

If you’re not sure whether you tick every box, but feel excited about the work, we strongly encourage you to apply.

We particularly welcome candidates from backgrounds underrepresented in media, campaigning, and systems change roles — including people of colour, disabled candidates, and those from working-class or non-traditional paths.

Please note that to be considered for this post, you must be legally eligible to work in the UK. We are unable to hire anyone that isn’t already living in the UK, nor are we able to sponsor visas. 

WELLBEING AND TEAM CULTURE

This is a remote working role with regular travel to London. As a team we enjoy coworking together in-person on a regular basis, and invest in our working relationships. 

Building a culture of wellness is important to us. All employees at Inside Track are able to access to 1-1 coaching and wellbeing support to help them navigate this work.

Contract: Permanent, full-time (open to 4 days/week)
Hybrid working (60% office-based, Romford HQ)
Application deadline: 29 October 2025

About King George & Queen’s Hospitals Charity
King George & Queen’s Hospitals Charity exists to make a real difference for patients, families, and staff across King George Hospital in Ilford and Queen’s Hospital in Romford. We raise vital funds to enhance hospital environments, support staff wellbeing, and improve the quality of care and experience for our communities.
Now entering an exciting new chapter, we are transitioning into a fully independent NHS charity — with a new Board of Trustees and the freedom to define our own strategy, build new partnerships, and expand our impact. As we establish our independent structure, this is a pivotal moment to join a small, dedicated team committed to creating a lasting legacy for local people.
Our vision is to help everyone who comes through our hospitals experience exceptional care, comfort, and compassion. Everything we do is guided by our values of collaboration, integrity, and community — ensuring every pound raised translates into meaningful change for those who need it most.

About the Role
As Finance Manager, you will play a key leadership role at the heart of the charity’s transformation. Reporting to the Chief Executive, you will oversee all aspects of financial management, governance, and reporting — ensuring the charity’s financial integrity and sustainability as we move to independence and beyond.
This is a unique opportunity for a proactive and strategic finance professional who enjoys being both hands-on and high-impact. You’ll help design and implement new systems, establish strong controls, and shape the financial framework that will underpin the charity’s growth and success for years to come.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead all aspects of the charity’s financial management, from budgeting and forecasting to audit and reporting.
• Prepare monthly management accounts, cashflow statements and multi-year forecasts.

• Manage restricted and unrestricted funds, fundraising income and grant reporting.
• Oversee investments and reserves in collaboration with external advisors.
• Partner with fundraising colleagues to maximise income impact and ensure financial sustainability.
• Support the charity’s transition from Trust to independence, embedding good governance and control frameworks.

What We’re Looking For

• Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) — essential.
• Solid experience in charity finance, ideally within a fundraising or grant-giving environment.
• Strong technical knowledge of charity accounting (SORP), restricted funds, and Gift Aid.
• Confident working independently in a sole finance role, with both strategic and operational responsibilities.
• Experience building or improving financial systems during periods of change.
• Excellent communication and influencing skills — able to advise trustees and non-finance colleagues alike.
• Hands-on and proactive — comfortable processing invoices one day and presenting strategy the next.
• Familiarity with Sage (or similar) and strong Excel skills.

Why Join Us

• This is a rare opportunity to shape the future of a newly independent charity — one with a strong foundation, clear mission, and the ambition to make a difference every day.
• You’ll join a supportive and close-knit team working in partnership with NHS colleagues and our communities. We offer flexible hybrid working, professional development opportunities, and the chance to see the direct impact of your work across both hospitals.
• If you’re inspired by the idea of helping to build a modern, effective, and compassionate charity from the ground up — we’d love to hear from you.
