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.

Last year, 136,000 young people approached their council for help as they were homeless or at risk of being homeless. Even more alarming is that figure represents an increase of 58% from six years ago. Youth homelessness costs the UK economy an estimated £8.5bn, largely due to unemployment, and so the challenge can feel huge. But we already have the resources to solve it within the built environment sector. And that is where LandAid comes in.
We use our links to the UK’s property industry, harnessing its members’ direct capital, assets and skills to help tackle youth homelessness by awarding grants and investing in frontline charities, providing financial support, and brokering free advice and expertise to increase the impact of their support.
The Chief Financial and Operating Officer is an important new role for us, created to ensure we achieve our ambitions over the coming years by focusing on delivering better quality of management information, insights and analysis to the Board and leadership to inform decision making. A key early component of the role will be to develop a detailed four-year financial plan in line with our organisational strategy. You will also look to invest in our internal operations by driving continuous improvement and exploring emergent technologies that offer us the ability to deliver greater real-time insights to and efficiencies for our teams. In addition, you will review our risk and governance frameworks by working actively with our Board sub-committees.
Beyond finance, you will oversee our outsourced HR and IT functions, ensuring we receive high-quality and cost-effective support and have robust systems and policies in place. You will also continue our work to become an employer of choice, building on our achievements today which have seen us identified as one of the UK’s ‘100 Best Small Companies to Work For’, and shortlisted as one of the ‘Top 30 Charities to Work For’.
We are looking for a chartered accountant who brings senior finance leadership experience either at executive director level in an organisation of similar size to ours, or deputy director level in a larger organisation, most likely within a charity setting. Knowledge of the built environment and/or capital investment is advantageous, as is an understanding of the models of social investment. Crucially, you’ll be the sort of person your colleagues are keen to learn from and eager to work with, able to offer expert insight and coaching with patient enthusiasm, but comfortable in offering clear advice and direction when needed.
