When someone suffers a traumatic injury or life threatening medical emergency, every second matters. Midlands Air Ambulance Charity (MAAC) exists to save lives by saving time - bringing hospital level intervention directly to scenes of critical need across six counties, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. For more than three decades, our clinicians have delivered treatments usually only found inside an A&E department: pre hospital emergency anaesthesia, advanced drugs, surgical interventions, and rapid blood transfusion. Every mission we fly - more than 80,000 since our formation - is funded entirely by public generosity. We receive no NHS or Government funding. Our ability to save lives depends on the strength, foresight and resilience of our finances. We are now entering a pivotal phase. We are diversifying our income model, expanding clinical training programmes, developing new commercial opportunities, and deepening our partnerships with NHS Trusts. As Finance Director, you will play a central role in shaping this next chapter ensuring that our lifesaving work remains financially sustainable, strategic, and ready for what the future demands. Why this role matters Behind every rapid-response helicopter launch is a complex, high-trust financial system that must be robust, transparent and agile. The external environment remains challenging, with income pressures, rising operational costs and changing clinical demand. Against this backdrop, MAAC is committed to strengthening its resilience, investing in data-driven insight, and expanding its impact. Our ability to continue offering world-class pre-hospital care depends on a financial strategy that protects today s service while enabling long-term innovation. Working collaboratively with the Board, CEO and Senior Leadership Team, the Finance Director plays a lead role in ensuring that our financial decisions are bold but responsible, that our financial resources are deployed authentically in service of patient need, and that colleagues - from frontline clinicians to volunteers - are supported by stable, assured financial stewardship. This is a mission-led role of real consequence. You will hold a unique vantage point across the entire organisation: playing a lead role in shaping financial strategy, ensuring robust financial stewardship and cost management, safeguarding financial risk, and enabling confident, evidence-based financial decision-making at executive and Board level. Your contribution Provide strategic financial leadership that strengthens resilience, supports growth and ensures MAAC is future-ready. Build trusted relationships across the Board, Executive, Senior Leadership Team and clinical leaders - becoming a critical partner in financial organisational planning. Lead Group-wide financial stewardship across charity and trading operations, securing robust controls and transparent reporting. Ensure financial systems, processes and controls remain best-in-class, enabling clarity, accountability and operational confidence. Steward financial risk and compliance, including oversight of the investment portfolio, reserves strategy and financial statutory obligations. Report to the Audit and Risk Committee and Board of Trustees to provide assurance that financial controls are adequate, appropriate and operating effectively supporting Trustees in carrying out their governance responsibilities. Play a lead role in shaping our long-term financial plan, working collaboratively to manage costs and grow income through innovation and diversification. Model values-led leadership, supporting the development, wellbeing and capability of a high-performing Finance team. What you will help shape A financially confident organisation that is able to meet changing clinical demand with innovation and resilience. A sustainable, diversified income base that protects our independence and reflects our bold ambitions. Strong evidence-led decision-making, driven by high-quality financial insight, strategic modelling and scenario planning. Continuous improvement in financial stewardship, risk, compliance and transparency. An inclusive, collaborative and values-led culture consistent with MAAC s commitment to dignity, respect and equity. The organisation s future as a national Centre of Excellence for clinical training, underpinned by sound financial investment and planning. Few roles offer this combination of purpose, complexity and impact. As Finance Director, you will directly support one of the country s most vital emergency care services - protecting the integrity of today s operations while building the foundations for the services of tomorrow.
