About Barnardo's Scotland

We're here to help children, young people and their families across Scotland feel safer, happier, healthier and more hopeful.

At Barnardo's we believe in children – no matter who they are, what they have done or what they have been through.

For over 150 years, we've been here for children and young people who need us most – bringing love, care and hope into their lives and giving them a place where they feel they belong. We are here because too many children and young people across the UK are missing out on a good childhood, and on the opportunity to thrive when they become adults.

We'll continue to be here for as long as we're needed – working with children and young people to be safe, happy, healthy and hopeful.

We will never, ever give up on the things that matter to them - and we'll do everything we can to give them a place where they feel like they belong.

In everything we do, we work with children and young people to be safer, happier, healthier and more hopeful.

Safer: So children at risk of harm are better protected.

Happier: So children struggling with their wellbeing can access support and feel they belong.

Healthier: So children growing up with disadvantage can experience good physical and mental health.

More hopeful: So children experiencing challenges can move into adulthood with hope and confidence.

We're determined to make this happen.

• Inclusive: Respecting the unique worth of every person
• Supportive: Encouraging people to fulfil their potential

Our basis and values

Our Head of Finance plays a vital role in ensuring the financial sustainability, governance, and operational resilience of Clan Childlaw. This senior management role leads financial strategy, planning, and reporting, providing the insight needed to support strong decision-making and maximise our impact for children and young people in Scotland.

Working closely with the Chief Executive, Senior Leadership Team, and Non-Executive Directors, the postholder delivers clear financial leadership aligned with the organisation’s strategic priorities. The role also provides oversight of payroll, procurement, organisational systems, and operational infrastructure.

The Head of Finance leads and supports our team of administrators and works closely with third party service providers, ensuring the smooth running of office operations and systems that enable our staff team to deliver their work effectively.

This is an exciting opportunity for a strategic finance professional who wants to use their expertise to support meaningful change and strengthen children’s rights.

About you

You are a strategic and collaborative finance leader with a strong commitment to the mission and values of Clan Childlaw, with experience in financial management, planning, and governance, ideally within the charity, legal, or public sector.

Professionally qualified (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) or with equivalent senior experience, you understand charity finance, including restricted funds, SORP reporting, and statutory compliance. You are confident producing management accounts, forecasts, and financial analysis that support effective decision-making.

Comfortable working across both strategic and operational areas, you oversee systems such as payroll, procurement, and financial controls while contributing to long-term financial planning. With strong analytical and communication skills, you translate complex financial information into clear, accessible insight.

An organised and supportive leader, you build positive relationships across teams, strengthen financial understanding across the organisation, and manage competing priorities with integrity, accountability, and a focus on impact.

About Clan Childlaw

Clan wants a Scotland where all children and young people’s rights are respected, protected, and fulfilled. For that to happen, Scotland has to be a place where all children and young people can stand up for their rights. That means children and young people need:

• Lawyers that are experts in working with children
• People around them who can enable them to use their rights and amplify their voices
• To be respected as rights-holders, who are entitled to hold duty-bearers to account if their rights are not fulfilled.

Clan is an award-winning, independent children’s charity that actively supports children and young people to take ownership of their rights. We are the only charity in Scotland that provides free, independent legal representation exclusively for children and young people, which is child-centred by design. Because our lawyers work directly with children and young people whose lives are affected by legal decisions, we bring that unique practice-based knowledge to every aspect of our work. This includes our specialist training, our helpline supporting others who help children to use their voices and their rights, and our work to influence children’s rights respecting changes to practice, policy and law.

What We Do

• We stand with others who help children use their rights –

Through our membership and training for legal professionals and in legal education we are making being a “children’s lawyer” an accredited legal skill set in Scotland. Our practical training and helpline and support for advocacy in Children’s Hearings provides adults that support children and young people information and guidance that they can use to empower young people to stand up for their rights.

• We stand out through the excellence of our work –

We want our work to have as much impact as possible. We listen to what children and young people tell us about what they need from lawyers and others who support them to use their rights. We use what we learn to develop and design the services they need and talk about why young people’s rights matter, and why children and young people need lawyers.

• We stand for change –

We are lawyers for children and young people representing children and young people in court, at Children’s Hearings, and in important meetings working to give them equal opportunity to heard and use their rights. We take cases that make change for individual children and young people and help shape better rights respecting policy and practice. We use our knowledge of the law, and experience as practising lawyers for children and young people, to ask decision makers and lawmakers to change the law and the way the law is used to make sure that children and young people's rights are respected, protected and fulfilled.

Our Values

Our values are the principles we uphold in all our work, no matter what. They are the foundation of our workplace culture. Everyone who works at Clan shows our values in all they do and say.

We are supportive: We listen and respond, we provide encouragement and emotional help to children and young people, to others who support young people, and to each other.

We are bold: We are confident and courageous in amplifying the voices of children and young people. We are prepared to take risks when we need to, to defend children and young people’s rights.

We are dynamic: We are always active, always progressing. We are positive, full of energy and new ideas. We ask for change where it is needed.
