Are you a numbers person who loves keeping things organised and running smoothly? We're looking for a friendly and reliable Finance Officer/Manager to join our team and play a vital role in supporting our day-to-day financial operations.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys working with people as much as they enjoy working with numbers. You'll be part of a caring and close-knit team at a familly-run organisation that helps vulerable adults and young people to live independent lives in a supported environment.

- Helping to maintain accurate financial records and systems.
- Supporting audits and ensuring compliance with financial procedures.
Your working hours
This position is for 24 hours per week. Ideally, we would like these hours to be spread across the working week, but we can discuss exact working arrangements. We'd also foresee this role being largely office based, with the possibility of some working from home, but again that is open for discussion.
What we're looking for
The ideal candidate:
- Has previous experience in a finance, accounts or bookkeeping role (ideally equivalent to at least three years).

There are many great reasons to join our team!
You'll be able to make an immediate mark on a growing family-run company, with ambitious plans for the future that always puts the people we support at the heart of our decisions.
You'll also receive:
- A salary of £35,000-£40,000 pro rata, depending on experience.
