The role exists within a purpose-driven organisation supporting high-quality clinical research that makes a real difference to patient outcomes. As the organisation continues to grow, we are seeking an experienced finance professional who enjoys combining strategic thinking with hands-on delivery.

This is a part-time, onsite role (3 days per week), ideal for someone who wants to be close to the business and actively involved in building strong financial foundations in a values-led environment.

The Role
Reporting into senior leadership, this role offers a blend of strategic finance leadership and day-to-day execution. You will take ownership of finance operations while also helping shape systems, processes, and controls that support the organisation's next phase of growth. This is not a purely advisory role, you will be comfortable rolling up your sleeves while also thinking ahead.

Key responsibilities include:

• Overseeing day-to-day finance operations, including bookkeeping, reconciliations, payroll oversight, and compliance
• Managing budgeting, forecasting, cashflow, and financial reporting
• Reviewing and improving financial systems, processes, and controls
• Supporting governance, audit, and reporting requirements
• Working closely with senior stakeholders to provide commercial and strategic financial insight
• Helping design fit-for-purpose finance infrastructure for a growing organisation

About You
You are an experienced finance professional who enjoys working in organisations where purpose and impact matter. You value being close to the detail and understand that strong strategy is built on solid execution.
We are looking for - 

• Significant experience in a senior finance role 
• A hands-on mindset — comfortable working across both strategic and operational finance
• Experience setting up or improving finance systems and processes
• Strong judgement, pragmatism, and attention to detail
• An interest in or commitment to purpose-driven, not-for-profit, or mission-led organisations
• Relevant accounting qualifications (CA, CPA, or equivalent preferred)
