Overview

Our client is a leading London-based charity looking to recruit an interim Finance Business Partner on a 3–6-month contract. This is an opportunity to make a real impact within an organisation that’s changing lives across the UK.

The Role

As Finance Business Partner, you’ll play a key role in driving financial performance, providing strategic insight, and helping senior stakeholders make well-informed decisions. You’ll act as the bridge between finance and the wider organization, ensuring that financial information is clear, meaningful, and aligned to the charity’s goals.

Key responsibilities include:

·        Building strong relationships with departmental leads and programme managers.

·        Supporting budgeting, forecasting, and longer-term financial planning.

·        Providing insightful analysis to guide decision-making and resource allocation.

·        Preparing management accounts with clear, actionable commentary.

·        Helping drive value for money and efficiency across programmes and operations.

·        Supporting business cases, funding bids, and donor reporting where needed.

·        Contributing to process improvement and system enhancements.

About You

You’ll be ideally a qualified (or part qualified) accountant who enjoys partnering with the business and translating complex financial data into clear, engaging insight. You’ll bring strong analytical ability, sound judgement, and a collaborative approach.

Criteria to be successful:

·        ACA, ACCA, or CIMA qualification (or equivalent).

·        Must have experience in the charity or not-for-profit sector.

·        Proven experience in a Finance Business Partner or Management Accountant role.

·        Excellent communication and influencing skills.

·        Strong Excel and reporting system capability.

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a respected charity and help ensure financial insight continues to underpin the organisation’s vital work. If you’re a commercially astute finance professional with a passion for purpose, I’d love to hear from you.
