About the opportunity:
Our client is proud to partner with incredible organisations who are making a genuine difference every day. This opportunity is no exception.
They’re looking for a Finance Director who brings a great mix of strategic thinking, commercial acumen, and operational excellence. Someone who can shape future plans with a clear eye on opportunity and risk, while ensuring robust processes, controls, and best practice are firmly embedded.
This is a true business partner role; you’ll need to see the bigger picture and contribute at board level, while still being able to roll your sleeve up and strengthen day-to-day financial operations. Building financial awareness and capability across all departments will be key too, developing and upskilling teams to ensure financial thinking is at the heart of decision-making across the business.
This is your chance to be part of something special. You’ll join a passionate leadership team who are committed to creating positive social change through education and inclusion programmes that empower individuals, build confidence, and unlock potential.
You’ll bring strategic financial expertise to the table, helping to ensure that funds are used wisely and well, allowing these life-changing programmes to continue, grow, and evolve.
This isn’t just about the numbers. You’ll be a key voice at the leadership table, influencing decisions, challenging thinking, and helping shape the future direction of the organisation.
What you’ll be getting stuck into:
• Acting as a strategic finance partner to the CEO and leadership team - your insight will shape plans, drive decisions, and keep the mission on track.
• Leading on all financial reporting, planning, forecasting, and risk management - keeping the board, Trustees, and senior leaders fully informed.
• Ensuring robust financial controls, compliance, and governance across the charity.
• Leading the charge on data and insights - including developing meaningful KPIs, social value metrics, and an annual Impact Report that tells the real story of the difference being made.
• Managing the charity’s use of Salesforce and looking at how data can be used even more effectively to support decision-making.
• Keeping a sharp eye on VAT returns, payroll, gift aid, pension schemes, and investment administration.
• Line managing and supporting a small Finance team and succession planning to keep the team thriving.
• Business partnering with Heads of Department, helping each function understand the numbers and make smart, informed choices.
What they’re looking for:
• Proven experience in a senior finance role where you’ve combined strategic leadership with a hands-on approach.
• ACCA, CIMA, ACA, CIPFA (or similar) qualified.
• Confident working with Xero (or similar accounting software) and the Microsoft 365 suite.
• Skilled at translating financial data into plain English for non-finance colleagues - making the complex simple.
• A solid understanding of financial risk management, including how cybersecurity, fraud controls, and financial risks interact.
• Experience leading audits, preparing statutory accounts, and presenting at Board or Trustee level.
You’ll fit right in if you are:
• A strong communicator and influencer - able to build trust at every level.
• A strategic thinker who can see the bigger picture while staying close to the detail.
• Solutions-focused, proactive, and calm under pressure.
• Resilient, adaptable, and not afraid to challenge the status quo.
• Someone who leads with heart, champions collaboration, and believes in the power of purpose-driven work.
What’s in it for you?
Alongside a competitive salary and generous benefits, this is an opportunity to genuinely make an impact. You’ll play a critical role in sustaining and growing work that changes lives for the better — and you’ll do it alongside a leadership team who believe in what they do, care about each other, and are serious about making a difference.

BACKGROUND
This is an exciting opportunity to join the legal aid casework team at Asylum Aid. You will be responsible for coordinating and delivering the billing of our legal aid work (including controlled work, certificated work and inter partes bills), which is vital to ensure the financial sustainability of our work. Asylum Aid holds legal aid contracts in the immigration & asylum and public law categories.
For thirty-five years, Asylum Aid has been providing legal representation to some of the most vulnerable people seeking asylum. We have built an expert service, delivering vital and life-saving services in some of the most complex legal cases, with a particular speciality working with unaccompanied children, survivors of trafficking, torture or other forms of human cruelty, and stateless people. Our vision is that all those in need of protection from persecution and other forms of human cruelty in the UK can obtain it, and are treated fairly and with dignity.
Since August 2020, Asylum Aid has been part of the Helen Bamber Foundation Group. Asylum Aid operates as an independent charity, led by its own Executive Director within the group structure, and is ambitious about growing its impact and reach in the future to ensure protection from persecution for those who need it.
ABOUT THE ROLE
This role would suit a person with strong attention to detail and excellent organisational skills and numeracy. The ideal candidate will have already embarked on or be looking to develop a career providing excellent legal aid billing support and coordination essential to the financial sustainability of legal aid practice, whether within the charity sector or private practice. You will have a strong commitment to the values of Asylum Aid and an understanding of the importance of sound legal aid billing practices to our continued ability to provide our expert service to our clients. Prior experience is not essential as full training will be given and peer support is available.
The focus of the role of billing coordinator is to ensure the efficient and robust delivery of costing and billing of legal aid files conducted under Legal Aid Agency (LAA) contract (Legal Help / Controlled Legal Representation and certificated work) as well as liaising with external costs lawyers to oversee the preparation of Inter Partes bills and negotiations with the paying party where we have obtained an order for our costs in judicial review proceedings. This includes reconciliation of Legal Aid Agency payments received and made, and to provide essential coordination within the organisation to support lawyers in ensuring files are billed promptly and accurately, and costs are maximized. The billing coordinator will work with the Director of Legal Casework to develop and maintain an effective tracking system to ensure timely progression from case closure to billing.
This role will work closely with the Legal Team of Asylum Aid and the Finance team of the Helen Bamber Foundation Group. You will also have access to the London Legal Support Trust Centres of Excellence legal aid billing peer support group and peer-to-peer support.
As this is a new role, there will be clear targets set as to the additional legal aid income brought in as a result of the extra capacity it will bring and a review will be undertaken after 12 months as to whether it is having the desired impact on our legal aid income.
Equal Opportunities
Our commitment to principles of equity, diversity and inclusion is an integral part of our approach to our clients, our volunteers and our staff, and we are an equal opportunities and Living Wage employer.
We are committed to attracting and recruiting diverse candidates because we are keen to make sure that our staff, trustees, volunteers and ambassadors reflect the communities we serve and the wider community we work in.
We genuinely welcome and encourage applications from candidates from range of backgrounds, especially people of colour, people with disabilities, people from low socio-economic backgrounds, refugees, stateless people and others with lived experience of forced migration or trauma who are under-represented in our organisation.
We recognise and value the role of lived experience in meeting the needs of our clients and acknowledge the under-representation of people with lived experience of forced migration and statelessness in the refugee and migration sectors. We value experience gained overseas as well as in the UK and you will receive full training to enable you to transfer your knowledge and skills to the UK context.
