What you'll need to succeed You will ideally be at least AAT Qualified or a Part-Qualified Accountant and able to produce the monthly management accounts, undertake extensive reconciliations, review various income streams and present your management accounts to the Trustees with commentary on variances, as well as statements on VAT returns, cashflow forecasting including gift aid / donations etc. We will consider commercial accountants or ex-practice accountants who have a desire and passion to support a charitable organisation, but the core skills required will cover bookkeeping to trial balance, managing cashflow through to monthly management accounts as you would produce for an SME-type business.
