Are you looking for a role where you can really make a difference? Changeworks, Scotland’s leading environmental charity, is recruiting a Finance Manager to play a key role in helping us tackle the climate emergency.

Reporting to the Head of Finance, the Finance Manager will be responsible for the effective running of our finance function. You’ll provide accurate and timely financial information to assist executive, senior management and budget holders with effective decision making. You’ll line manage the Finance Officer and Finance Assistant and ensure that finance functions for the organisation run effectively and efficiently.

Your role will also include the development, improvement and implementation of operational financial procedures including the finance and expense system. You will assist the Head of Finance in ensuring the charity continues to comply with VAT regulations and will work with HR on payroll and pension administration.

Applicants for this role should have full or substantial progress towards full membership of a professional accountancy body or significant experience as a Finance Manager.

This role requires strong communication skills as you will be a key contact explaining financial information to non-finance professionals across Changeworks. You’ll be confident to work autonomously and take the initiative, as well as working as part of a team.

About us

Changeworks is a great place to work. We hold Investors in People Platinum accreditation (something only a few organisations in Scotland have), and we were nominated for employer of the year by the Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce this year. Our staff overwhelmingly would recommend us as an employer too.

The Climate Emergency has resulted in ambitious national targets to reduce carbon emissions from the built environment and reduce rates of fuel poverty. This has driven a significant increase in the number of pilot and large-scale interventions delivered by Changeworks and external organisations in this area. These include area-based domestic energy efficiency retrofit and decarbonisation projects and programmes.

We are a growing organisation, and this role is crucial to the delivery of our ambitious objectives. We want to decarbonise homes in Scotland on a massive scale, and that needs talented individuals like you to help us deliver on our objectives. You’ll receive full training plus coaching and mentoring.

We offer a wide range of staff benefits including flexible working, bike to work scheme, an excellent pension scheme and 26 days paid holiday plus 9 public holidays per year.

At Changeworks, we welcome and encourage applications from everyone.

We seek a proactive and dedicated Development & Communications Officer to join our team on maternity cover. In this role, you’ll drive our fundraising efforts, lead the submission of grant applications, work on external relationship building, and oversee our external communications.

Approximately 80% of the role is fundraising-based. The remaining 20% of the role will be focused on communications.

We are volunteer-driven and the majority of our work is delivered by a committed group of volunteers with key support from our trustees. You’ll have the chance to take real ownership and responsibility in our fundraising efforts.

About the Worker Support Centre

The Worker Support Centre (WSC) is a Scotland based charity that promotes decent work and prevents exploitation. We support marginalised and isolated workers in labour sectors where there is a high risk of abuse and exploitation. We work in partnership with workers to build power to secure and advance workplace rights. We prevent human trafficking for forced labour by acting to reduce the risks of worker exploitation. WSC values include: respect for human rights, representation, transparency, equality and innovation.

WSC support includes advice, mediation, advocacy and assisted reporting to enforcement agencies. Our worker engagement informs policy change activity to address harms faced by those in high-risk work. In 2023 and 2024 WSC activities were targeted at workers in seasonal agriculture on the UK Seasonal Worker visa (SWV). During this time, we provided advice, support, and information to 1031 people in relation to the SWV. WSC is now embarking on a new project to engage workers in health and social care to advance care workers’ rights through worker education and power sessions.

About the role

This role is focussed on advancing care workers’ rights by supporting WSC’s peer engagement work including actively conducting outreach to workers and facilitating worker education and power sessions. In this role you will support WSC meet two of its four core objectives to work together with workers to claim spaces for power and representation in decision making; and to build the field of knowledge about workers and their experiences to influence policy. This role also includes handling a small caseload, providing health and social care workers with information, support and impartial advice with any issues that may arise during outreach or sessions. This role will work closely together with our Peer Engagement team and Outreach Caseworker.
