About You
You will be a professionally qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, CIPFA or equivalent) with significant senior-level finance experience.
You will have a strong track record across financial planning, forecasting, management accounts, governance and strategic financial analysis, combined with the confidence and credibility to influence and constructively challenge senior stakeholders.
You will be comfortable translating complex financial information into clear commercial insight, enabling the CEO, Trustees and wider leadership team to make informed strategic decisions.
Experience within the charity, not-for-profit or public sector would be advantageous, particularly knowledge of Charity SORP, restricted and unrestricted funds and Trustee-led governance.
Experience or understanding across areas such as HR, IT, procurement, systems development or digital transformation would also be beneficial.
Above all, we are looking for someone who is collaborative, commercially minded, solutions-focused and passionate about continuous improvement.
What We Offer
£55,000-£65,000 salary, depending on experience
25 days' annual leave plus bank holidays
A key strategic position within the Senior Leadership Team
Direct exposure to the CEO and Board of Trustees
The opportunity to influence the future direction of an established animal welfare organisation
A broad and varied remit spanning finance and corporate services
The opportunity to use your expertise to create meaningful impact for animals and the communities the organisation supports
Make Your Mark
This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious finance leader who wants to move beyond a traditional finance role and play a genuine part in shaping an organisation's future.
If you are looking for a position where strategic influence, commercial thinking and purpose come together, we would love to hear from you.
