Finance Officer

Finance Officer

HOURS OF WORK: 35 hours per week
SALARY: £30,000 – £35,000 per annum
LOCATION: London, SW8 (Hybrid Working)

The closing date is 12pm on Thursday 20th March 2025.

The Finance Officer is an exciting new role created to support the capacity and capabilities of our finance team. This role will play an important part in creating a robust and innovative financial service, while upholding our organisational values and contributing to a collaborative and supportive culture. As part of our reviewed structure, this role will join our organisation alongside a new Chief Financial Officer to maximise our impact and scale of work.

You will be an experienced Finance Officer who enjoys working with colleagues across a multi-disciplinary team. You will work closely with the Finance Manager to run our day-to-day finance functions in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, other associated finance software, and Sage Payroll. You should have experience of working in a busy finance function and the ability to work independently, delivering on competing priorities and deadlines.

Strong communication skills are important, as you will work closely with team members who do not have a finance background, creating accessibility in the teams’ reporting abilities and understanding of their budgets, payroll, and purchasing. You’ll need excellent time management skills, the confidence to take ownership of your areas of work, and the ability to prioritise in an ever-evolving environment and service.

Experience of working in the charity sector is a bonus, but not a necessity. You’ll be based in our London office (in Vauxhall) but will be expected to travel to our Southampton office regularly (around twice a month), for which all expenses will be paid.
