• Oversee day-to-day financial processes, working closely with external accountants.

What we're looking for

• Significant experience in a senior finance, governance, or company secretarial role in the charity or non-profit sector.
• Strong working knowledge of UK charity finance and regulatory obligations.

The organisation will be making grants from an early stage, so experience with grant-giving will be highly valuable.

• Excellent attention to detail, reliability, and professional integrity.
• Confident managing external advisers and auditors.
• Comfort with ambiguity and excitement at the prospect of an entrepreneurial, mission-driven organisation
• Passion for improving numeracy, providing opportunity, and social impact.
• Relevant qualifications (e.g. ICSA, ACCA, ACA, or CIPFA) are desirable but not essential if equivalent experience is demonstrated.
