The Finance, Commercial, Sustainability and Property (FCSP) Directorate manages, oversees, and analyses the Agency's financial and commercial activities. By reporting on our current position, forecasting future budgets, and working closely with internal and external stakeholders, we play an active role in understanding the agency's performance and shaping its financial future.
The role is within the Project & National Interest Case Finance Business Partner Team, which provides project finance advice to key stakeholders and Senior Leaders across a growing project portfolio. We are recruiting a Level 7 Apprenticeship Cost Centre Manager within the Insolvency Service's FCSP directorate. This is a rewarding role within an established team of finance professionals.
Alongside your role, you will commit to completing a full Level 7 Accountancy Professional apprenticeship within a maximum of 36 months, dependent on current qualifications. The apprenticeship involves studying towards and obtaining the CIMA professional qualification. This role is fully funded and contractual. Candidates who are partway through or have completed their studies may also be considered. If a candidate is too advanced in their studies to complete the Level 7 qualification via an apprenticeship, a fully-funded non-apprenticeship role may be offered.
The position is full-time (36/37 hours per week), with part-time applications considered based on working hours meeting role and apprenticeship demands.
