At Papworth Trust, we are driven by a clear purpose: to support disabled people to live independent and fulfilling lives. As we continue to strengthen our services, systems and financial resilience, we are investing in our finance function and embracing digital transformation, including the implementation of a new finance system.
We are now seeking a Head of Finance to play a key role in this journey. Reporting to the Director of Finance and working as part of the wider Leadership Team, you will lead the finance team and ensure the delivery of high-quality financial management, reporting and control across the Trust. This is a critical role, combining technical excellence with values driven leadership and a strong business partnering approach.
You will take ownership of statutory accounts and audit, lead the production of high-quality management information, and drive effective budgeting, forecasting and long-term financial planning. You will ensure robust financial controls are in place, oversee cashflow and treasury activity, and play a central role in strengthening systems, processes and performance. Alongside this, you will lead and develop the Finance team, embedding a culture of continuous improvement, accountability and customer focus.
Working closely with the Director of Finance, you will support Board and Committee reporting, contribute to strategic planning and help ensure the organisation remains financially strong, compliant and well positioned for the future. This role offers real breadth, visibility and the opportunity to influence at a senior level.
We are looking for a qualified finance professional with strong technical expertise and a track record of leading finance operations in a complex environment. You will bring experience of financial reporting, audit, budgeting and control, alongside the ability to communicate information clearly and build strong relationships across the organisation. You will be a collaborative and engaging leader, comfortable working at pace, and motivated by delivering both operational excellence and continuous improvement.
Above all, you will share our commitment to equality and social impact. At Papworth Trust, we are proud of our inclusive culture and welcome applications from people of all backgrounds, particularly those with lived experience of disability.
We are a Disability Confident Leader, and welcome applications from disabled candidates. If you would like support to apply, please contact the People Services Team on 01480 357200 or email hr.administration@papworthtrust.org.uk and we will be happy to help.
