With responsibility for ensuring the strategic management of the organisation’s finances, there is also responsibility for leading on ensuring legislative compliance and best practice as well as overseeing the smooth internal operations of the organisation.

They are seeking a highly motivated and enthusiastic individual with a sound knowledge of regulation and legislation affecting charities such as GDPR, along with a strong working knowledge of SAGE Accounting Systems. The successful candidate will be a qualified or part qualified CCAB Accountant or equivalent, with strong analytical skills and proven ability to implement and improve financial management systems. The post holder will bring a financial and commercial strength to the charity.

Closing date for applications: 9am on Monday 21st January 2019
