Are you an experienced charity finance professional looking for a varied, purpose-driven role within a collaborative and values-led organisation?

Our Client

Our client is a well-established and highly respected charity and social enterprise that works in partnership with businesses and charities to create meaningful social impact.

With an ambitious and collaborative team culture, they are passionate about impact, innovation and continuous improvement. They offer a flexible and supportive working environment where people are trusted to work in the way that enables them to thrive.

As they continue to evolve and strengthen their operations, they are looking for a Finance & Operations Manager to play a key role in supporting the organisation’s financial sustainability, governance and operational effectiveness.

The Role

Reporting to the CEO, this broad and varied role will take ownership of the organisation’s finance function while also helping to support smooth day-to-day operations across the business.

The finance element of the role is central and will suit someone confident managing the full finance cycle within a charity environment, including SORP compliance, management accounts, budgeting, forecasting, audit preparation and financial controls.

Alongside this, the successful candidate will help coordinate operational areas such as systems, suppliers, IT, HR administration and processes — ensuring the organisation runs efficiently and effectively.

Managing year-end preparation and external audit processes
Ensuring compliance with charity accounting standards and SORP requirements
Overseeing Xero and maintaining strong financial controls and processes
Supporting teams with financial insight and project costing
Tracking restricted and unrestricted income and grant reporting
Supporting governance reporting for senior leadership and trustees
Coordinating operational processes, systems and supplier relationships
Supporting ongoing systems and process improvements across the organisation

Strong working knowledge of Xero
