Finance Manager (Charity) - Plymouth / Hybrid - Starting salary of circa £40k
Trial Balance Consulting are delighted to have been reengaged by a past client, a highly successful and well respected community focussed charity based in Plymouth. The organisation seeks to recruit an experienced Finance Manager who can support the charity in all aspects of its accounting lifecycle. The role is offered as a full time and permanent and whilst the charity HQ is in Plymouth, for the right candidate the hybrid can work very much in your favour.
This is a position of pivotal responsibilities within the organisation and one that works closely with the Chief Executive and will cover a broad range of responsibilities. Working as part of a small but passionate team, this will be a broad and varied role with the following responsibilities:
- Acting as the finance number one for the charity, overseeing day-to-day accounting operations
- Production of management accounts for presentation with commentary to the board of trustees
- Budget forecasting
- Bank reconciliations
- Authorising supplier payment runs
- Cashflow and income monitoring
- HMRC submissions
- Monthly payroll operations to include employee pensions
- Preparation of annual balance sheet
- Preparation of statutory reports in line with Charities SORP
- VAT preparation and submission
- Liaison with external auditors and stakeholders
The successful candidate: We're more focussed on relevant technical and career experience than we are qualification status so applications are invited from both QBE, AAT and part/fully professionally qualified applicants. Previous experience gained in a charity accounting environment would be highly advantageous, but this employer recognises that a commercially astute Finance Manager with exposure gained in the private sector will also have a lot to offer here. Either way you'll be an accomplished accountant with superb organisational and interpersonal skills.
