Director of Finance, Governance & Operations in Peterborough

Could you provide the strategic financial, governance and operational leadership that helps Shine thrive?

Shine is seeking an exceptional Director of Finance, Governance & Operations to join our Senior Leadership Team and help shape the future of our national charity.

Working with the Chief Executive and Board of Trustees, you will provide strategic leadership across finance, governance and operations for Shine and its trading subsidiary, ensuring the charity remains financially sustainable, well governed and operationally resilient.

You will be a fully qualified accountant (CCAB-recognised or CIMA) who combines strategic thinking with practical delivery. You will lead financial strategy and planning and provide oversight of governance, organisational risk, people processes, operational infrastructure, information security and business continuity.

You will be supported by specialist staff and external advisers, so you do not need to be the technical specialist in every function.

You will be an excellent communicator and relationship builder, committed to diversity, equity, inclusion and Shine's aims.

The role is full-time and based at Shine's Peterborough office. The package includes a £60,000 FTE salary, 30 days' annual leave plus bank holidays and discretionary paid leave between Christmas and New Year, a 6% employer pension contribution, and the chance to make a lasting difference to people affected by spina bifida and hydrocephalus.

Shine is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of the people we support. Candidates must provide evidence of their identity and eligibility to work in the UK.

Shine is a Disability Confident employer and guarantees an interview to all disabled applicants who meet the minimum criteria.
