Finance & Operations Manager

Our vision is to build a more sustainable peace in some of the world’s most polarised societies. We do this by equipping a global network of faith-formed leaders with the habits and skills they need to act across deep divides and transform unhealthy conflict. With more than 20 years of experience in the field, we specialise in creating spaces for faithformed leaders to encounter each other authentically, re-humanising those they no longer see or hear, and working towards a more peaceful future where both sides flourish – one in which their differences still matter. We work in partnership with organisations that have the capacity to enable long-term, transformational change by supporting tomorrow’s leaders to lead through change, chaos and conflict.

Our partners include universities, seminaries, houses of worship, faith based and nongovernmental organisations, located in a range of the world’s most divided contexts. RCF is receiving unprecedented demand for our work and we are moving from a period of start-up to growth where there are exciting opportunities for the Foundation, our partners, and our team members. We are a close-knit team who support one another and are passionate about our mission. We look forward to welcoming new team members.

As RCF enters this exciting stage, there is huge demand for our support in a wide range of global contexts, and our key challenge is to ensure we have robust institutional capacity - systems and procedures - to attract and effectively administer growing levels of investment.

 As RCF attracts multi-year funding from a wider range of partners – including large grant providers and high-net-worth individuals - we need greater financial management capacity to ensure we are managing our resources responsibly and effectively. There will therefore be a strong focus on managing RCF’s finances – and strong experience in this area will be essential. There is also a focus on wider aspects of our operations and human resourcing. 

The jobholder will work closely with the Co-Director (Strategy and Organisational Development) receiving support and encouragement where required and always with the opportunity for personal growth and growing responsibility.
