About the Role
We are seeking a hands-on Finance Manager to take full operational ownership of the finance function within a growing health and social care organisation. The role is part-time initially and designed to progress into a full-time position as services and placements increase.

Handle invoice queries, rejections, disputes, and resubmissions
*
Liaise directly with LA finance and commissioning teams
*
Maintain accurate billing and income trackers

Oversee brokerage and framework financial compliance (e.g. e-Brokerage, CareCubed-informed pricing)
*
Manage cashflow forecasting, payment tracking, and financial risk escalation
*
Prepare monthly management accounts and financial summaries
*
Oversee payroll accuracy and staffing cost control
*
Ensure compliance with HMRC, Companies House, audits, and commissioner reviews
*
Provide financial and commercial support for new placements and service growth
Skills & Experience
Essential
*
Proven finance experience within health & social care (LA-funded)
*
Strong understanding of LA invoicing, commissioned hours, and payroll costs
*
Excellent attention to detail and ability to protect the organisation financially
Desirable
*
Experience with e-Brokerage systems
*
Knowledge of CareCubed or framework pricing
*
Experience within Supported Living or Children’s services
Why This Role
This part-time structure provides strong financial control without unnecessary fixed cost and is expected to scale into a full-time role as the organisation continues to grow
