Charity registered in Scotland SC003527
Giving all children in Scotland an equal chance to flourish is at the heart of everything we do.
By bringing together a network of people working with and for children, alongside children and young people themselves, we offer a broad, balanced and independent voice. We create solutions, provide support and develop positive change across all areas affecting children in Scotland. We do this by listening, gathering evidence, and applying and sharing our learning, while always working to uphold children’s rights.
Our range of knowledge and expertise means we can provide trusted support on issues as diverse as the people we work with and the varied lives of children and families in Scotland.
This is a great opportunity to join a national charity in a key finance role. You would be part of a small finance team and a supportive Central Services department. The joy of the role is that you will get to work with people from across the whole organisation and thus contribute to work aimed at making Scotland a better place for our babies, children, young people and their families.
In this role you will be responsible for the delivery of financial operations and the line management of the finance officer(s). You will need to be an experienced finance professional who has demonstrable hands-on experience in financial processing, is a proactive self-starter, has experience of line management and has strong working knowledge of financial systems.
If you have these skills and want to work in a values-led organisation with a nurturing environment, please take a look at the job description. This could be the job for you.
