Growing Well are looking for an experienced and enthusiastic accountant to lead on finance in our charity. The role supports our three established sites, plus our central office function. Strong financial management is essential after a period of huge growth, as we work towards a new, sustainable funding model.
Working closely with the CEO, you’ll ensure adequate financial controls are in place and all underlying financial accounting information is accurate and up to date.
You’ll provide meaningful management reporting, forward projections, and strategic financial input. You’ll be a champion of efficient and user-friendly operational systems that support our governance.
Applicants must be organised and highly numerate with an eye for the detail and great communication skills. An aptitude for spreadsheet modelling is essential.
This role has recently evolved to have one report, a part-time finance admin role. As a relatively small but complex charity we feel there are real advantages in having this role undertake some of the bookkeeping as well as managing the finance admin to support this.
This is a job where you are never far away from the difference we make as a charity. It is a passion and a privilege for the staff to affect and see the change in people we support, first hand.
Other brilliant benefits of working at Growing Well include 33 days annual leave inc. Bank Holidays (FTE), 7.5% pension contribution and the option of hybrid working.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
