If you’re a Finance person, you’ll already know that numbers matter. But here, they have the power to change lives.


You can be part of a pioneering national charity working across prisons, probation services and communities. This is not a back-office finance role. This is commercial leadership in a mission-driven environment.


In this brand new role, you’ll lead all commercial finance activity across a growing £10m complex and multi-site organisation, in one of the country’s most challenging sectors.

*Build smarter costing models, refining templates and delivering bespoke solutions when needed
*Monitor and report on project performance, identifying risks and opportunities
*Produce accurate funder and commissioner reports, supporting compliance and due diligence
*Support organisational forecasting, scenario planning, and strategic decision-making
*Train and mentor budget-holders to help empower them to make well-informed financial decisions
*Drive systems and process improvements, so the team has accurate and actionable financial data
*Present financial insight at trustee sub-committees and deputise for the Director of Finance when needed


You’ll get the opportunity to build out your team too, as this new role embeds into the organisation and establishes itself as a driver of sustainable growth.


What you need to bring:
*Qualified accountant (CIMA preferably, otherwise ACA or ACCA)
*Strong business partnering experience
*Proven financial modelling and forecasting capability
*Experience in contract, grant or tender-driven environments is key here
*Exposure to managing complex commercial contracts from large government or non-profit sources
*Advanced Excel skills (SUMIFS, INDEX MATCH, modelling)
*Ability to communicate complex financial insight to non-finance leaders


Experience in the charity or public sector would be beneficial, particularly social impact / purpose-led organisations. Interested? Then hit the apply button now.
