The confidence to build relationships across a business. Excellent communication skills and a collaborative approach. Experience within social care, charities, housing or another purpose-led organisation would be advantageous, but isn't essential. Qualified, part-qualified and qualified-by-experience candidates are all encouraged to apply. More importantly, you're someone who wants more than another finance role. You want your work to matter. If you're looking for an opportunity where your expertise will influence strategic decisions, strengthen a growing organisation and help create brighter futures for children and young people, we'd love to hear from you.
