Head of Finance & Resources – Charity Sector
Oxfordshire | Hybrid working 3 days in office, 2 days remote | Temporary 3 - 6 months 

I am delighted to be working with a highly respected charity to recruit a Head of Finance & Resources – a pivotal leadership role combining financial stewardship, governance, and resource management.

This is an excellent opportunity for a qualified accountant (ICAEW, CIPFA, ACCA, or equivalent) with senior finance experience who wants to use their expertise to make a real difference. The role offers variety: from producing management accounts and strengthening financial controls, to supporting governance as Company Secretary, overseeing statutory compliance, and leading long-term financial planning.

You’ll also line-manage a small team, oversee office/facilities management, and ensure systems are in place to help staff work effectively across site, home, and remote locations.

What we’re looking for:

  • Senior-level finance experience, ideally with exposure to charities or group structures.

  • Strong leadership skills with experience managing small teams.

  • A collaborative, hands-on approach with the ability to work strategically and operationally.

  • Confident communicator, able to engage with Boards, funders, and stakeholders.

This is a chance to join a values-driven organisation, combining strategic influence with day-to-day impact, in a role that truly matters.

 

If you have the above skills and experience and are available from the end of October 2025, please apply online today, I would love to have a conversation with you!
