A leadership role with purpose As our Director of Finance & Resources, you'll do far more than lead finance. You'll help ensure Bond remains financially resilient, operationally strong and strategically focused so that we can continue supporting the organisations working to create lasting global change. Working closely with our CEO, Trustees and senior colleagues, you'll provide the financial leadership, organisational insight and strategic challenge that enables confident decision-making across the organisation. You'll oversee Finance, Planning, Operations, HR and IT, ensuring the systems, people and financial governance behind our work are as strong as the mission we exist to serve.

Risk management, company secretarial and organisational compliance. Finance, Operations and HR leadership. Grant budgeting, reporting and organisational cost recovery.

Who we're looking for You're an experienced finance leader who understands that great organisations need both strong financial stewardship and ambitious thinking. You'll be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with senior leadership experience and an ability to balance strategic oversight with practical delivery.

Outstanding planning, analytical and leadership skills. Experience leading multidisciplinary teams. A collaborative approach and the ability to build trusted relationships across an organisation. Most importantly, you'll share our commitment to equity, inclusion and creating positive change. We're looking for someone who sees finance not as a control function, but as a catalyst for organisational impact. Why Bond? Everything we do is rooted in collaboration. You'll join an organisation that believes lasting change happens when people come together, share expertise and challenge one another to do better. Alongside meaningful work, we offer: Hybrid working with flexibility built around trust. 27 days annual leave, plus bank holidays, a day off for your birthday and additional Christmas closure. 7% employer pension contribution. Learning and development opportunities. Comprehensive health and wellbeing support. A welcoming, inclusive and values-driven culture where everyone can thrive.

If you're looking for a role where your financial expertise can support meaningful change on a national and global scale, we'd love to hear from you. Apply with your CV and a supporting statement explaining why you'd like to join Bond and what you'll bring to the role. We are partnering exclusively with Bryony Thomas at Allen Lane.
