North Glasgow Community Food Initiative (NGCFI) is entering a significant phase of organisational development, with access to a new community-owned building, a long-term lease of Milton Community Garden, and the launch of a community food truck in early 2026. These assets present a major opportunity to develop social enterprise activity and earned income that supports long-term financial sustainability.

The Income Generation & Partnerships Manager is a fixed-term, two-year development role. The purpose of the role is to design, test, and embed sustainable income-generation models linked to NGCFI’s assets, ensuring that successful approaches can continue beyond the funding period.

This role is focused on social enterprise development, partnership building, and business planning, and is separate from core frontline service delivery.

The Finance Officer is responsible for implementing and maintaining robust financial systems and procedures that support the Project Manager and staff team. The role ensures that all staff meet their budgetary and financial management responsibilities, safeguarding the accuracy, compliance, and integrity of the organisation’s financial activities and records.

As the organisation expands its trading and income-generation activities, the Finance Officer will play a key role in supporting the transition towards reduced reliance on grant funding. The organisation works with approximately 50 funders annually, managing multiple budgets with varying timescales, reporting requirements, and deadlines.
