Producing timely management accounts with clear variance analysis and commentary
Reviewing financial controls, identifying key risks and implementing proportionate, practical solutions
Supporting year end and responding to external audit requests
Improving the consistency and clarity of finance processes and reporting templates
Developing templates for management accounts, cashflow forecasting, reforecasting and income reporting
Acting as a stabilising and supportive presence during a pressured period
Explaining financial information clearly and practically to non finance colleagues
About you
You will bring significant hands on financial accounting experience and enjoy bringing order and reassurance to complex environments.
You will offer:
Experience within the charity or not for profit sector and familiarity with PSF finance systems
Proven delivery of full month end processes and management accounts
Experience supporting year end and audit in small to mid sized organisations
Confidence working in resource constrained or highly manual finance environments
The ability to turn manual financial data into clear, decision ready information
Strong intermediate Excel skills, including pivot tables, lookups and logical formulas
