Overview

We are working on behalf of a national charity, delivering vital services across the UK, to recruit a dynamic finance business partner. The organisation is undergoing a period of finance transformation to strengthen its strategic capabilities and are seeking a talented individual to play a key role in embedding business partnering at a regional level and ensuring finance is fully integrated into operational and strategic decision-making.

The successful candidate will act as a trusted advisor to senior leaders, drive regional financial performance, and help shape the organisation's long-term sustainability.

Responsibilities

• Lead budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning for the region, ensuring alignment with organisational priorities.
• Partner with senior operational and clinical leaders, providing financial insight, challenge, and advice to inform decision-making.
• Deliver robust scenario modelling, cost-benefit analysis, and business cases to support investment, bids, and service development.
• Oversee management accounting and reporting, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and compliance.
• Develop clear and tailored reporting for both finance and non-finance audiences, fostering greater financial accountability and understanding.
• Contribute to cross-organisational finance initiatives and transformation projects, helping to strengthen the organisation's financial strategy and systems.

Qualifications

• Strong management accounting experience within a large, complex, or multi-disciplinary environment.
• The ability to communicate complex financial information with clarity and confidence, particularly to non-finance stakeholders.
• Proven experience of influencing senior leaders and shaping strategic decisions.
• Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to provide forward-looking financial insight.
• A professional accountancy qualification (CCAB, AAT) or progression towards one.

Experience within the charity or not-for-profit sector, or with multiple funding streams, would be highly advantageous.

Benefits and Details

The role will be mainly remote, with occasional travel to the regions. As well as flexible working there is a very generous holiday allowance, enhanced parental leave and access to Blue Light discount.

This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious finance professional who wants to apply their expertise in a role that is both strategically significant and socially meaningful. Applications close on 16th September, so please don't delay!
