You will have a strong background in finance and be able to support the finance administrator and broader team in budget setting, monitoring, reporting and advising on the completion of the annual accounts.
Our board meets every 8 to 10 weeks online when you will provide an update on our finances. We'd also welcome you to occasional face-to-face meetings at our offices in Somerset or Bristol. It would be desirable if you could input into the charity's strategy and help us achieve our goals using your skills, knowledge, and experience in finance.
