Applications will be considered on a rolling basis, and this position will remain open until we
have found our ideal candidate. No agencies please.

Hope and Vision Communities is a small charity providing supported, move-on accommodation for people who have successfully completed residential rehabilitation.  We have a Christian ethos, where everyone can be loved and accepted with a sense of belonging, with the hope and opportunity of a new life.  We are growing to expand who we can help to other geographical areas. 

We are seeking a volunteer to help our team with reconciling day to day accounts and bookkeeping, as well as some controlling and administration tasks depending on availability. Our ideal candidate would also be able to compute our annual accounts ready for review by an independent examiner.

In return we will give you support to succeed, a great group of people to work with and the chance to make a real difference to the people we support.
