Fundraising Manager Jobs
Actively Interviewing
This organisation is scheduling interviews as applications come in. They're ready to hire as soon as they find the right person. Don't miss your opportunity, apply now!
Brain Research UK (BRUK) funds world-class research to discover the causes, develop new treatments and improve the lives of all those who are affected by neurological conditions. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters vital life changing, life-saving neurological research can be funded.
We are a well-established charity that has recently launched a new strategy to accelerate the progress and funding of neurological research. As a small and ambitious charity, we are seeking someone who is keen to join a growing team and develop their skills and career within a vibrant, positive organisation.
The role
Effective financial management is central to our strategy and operating model. The Interim Finance Manager will be crucial in managing our finances and operations whilst embedding a culture of financial efficiency and effective controls.
The role has arisen to provide operational cover for the existing Head of Finance whilst they are working in a reduced capacity for 6 months (likely December to May). It is anticipated that the Head of Finance will be working 1 day per week during the 6-month period to provide handover and support to the Interim Finance Manager. We are seeking someone who is able to work 3 days per week but are willing to offer some flexibility around this. We are anticipating the role to be mostly remote, with ideally one day per week onsite - but can be flexible for the right candidate.
We are anticipating interviewing in the next 2 weeks with a view to the start date being towards the end of November/early December.
Reporting directly to the CEO, the Interim Finance Manager will lead on financial matters and will be expected to provide critical financial information, insightful analysis and timely reporting to support the financial operations of the Charity.
The role is standalone but working within a closeknit team. It will therefore have a degree of autonomy but will be expected to contribute to the wider development of the Charity. As we operate from a small scale, the role is operational and hands-on with a focus on completing financial procedures and reporting in a timely and effective manner.
Key areas of focus
· Operational Finance
The Interim Finance Manager will ensure that all operational financial procedures are completed efficiently to enable accurate reporting. This includes ensuring that the Charity’s financial records are kept up to date and appropriately reconciled. The majority of the Charity’s income is received via third party systems and, therefore, a key part of the role is appropriately recording and reconciling this income.
· Reporting
Regular financial reporting is fundamental to the way we operate. The role will therefore lead on maintaining and reporting monthly management accounts for discussion with the CEO and Treasurer as well as providing quarterly management accounts for discussion with the Board. Naturally, this would also extend to the annual statutory accounts where the Interim Finance Manager will be the lead participant.
· Financial Planning and Analysis
Our future financial viability is as important as our current position. Therefore, the role will need to be forward looking. This will include leading on the annual budget and quarterly forecasting activities in order to enable a meaningful snapshot of expected financial performance. The role would be expected to provide financial input when considering business planning and scrutinising performance.
· Statutory Compliance
A key aspect of the role is to ensure compliance to the range of legislation that can impact the finance function. In addition to overseeing the statutory audit and adhering to financial accounting legislation, the role will need to be aware of the impact of wider regulation (Charity Law, HMRC, GDPR, etc) and to develop appropriate procedures to mitigate risk.
· Systems and Operational Efficiency
We operate as lean as we can and therefore continually improve on processes and systems. A focus of the role is to ensure that financial procedures are straightforward and efficient – this extends to reporting, controls, procedures and systems.
