Charity Accounts Manager

Charity Accounts Manager – Newquay / Hybrid – £30k - £35k

There’s a lot to consider when moving on to a new job opportunity. The role responsibilities need to suit, the remuneration needs to be attractive and the future prospects need to be bright. But perhaps one of the most important, and often overlooked, factors to consider is a strong belief in your new employer’s values and the nature of their operation. If working with a highly ethical organisation that genuinely changes & improves the world means as much as the job that you’re paid to do, this will undoubtedly be an opportunity that will be of interest. 

Trial Balance Consulting have been exclusively engaged by a new and exciting charity; an organisation with clearly focussed projects aimed at fixing our planet for the future. They seek to recruit an experienced Accounts Manager; a permanent, full-time opportunity offering very favourable hybrid working options, as well as an office base overlooking a beautiful part of Cornwall.

This is a position of pivotal importance within the organisation and one that works closely with the Director of Finance and HR Director. Working as part of a small but passionate team, this will be a broad and varied role with the following responsibilities: 

- Being responsible for the day-to-day finance function, overseeing day-to-day accounting operations

- Preparation of all journal entries and balance sheet for month end

- Reviewing all expenses ensuring correct documentation and coding

- Cashflow and income monitoring

- Support with the design and implementation of guides/training, as well as continual improvement of finance systems

- Assist with payroll operations

- Ad hoc project/ problem solving as the office expands

- Support the Director across administrative tasks such as Finance, HR, IT and general operations as required

- Liaison with external auditors and stakeholders

The successful candidate: we’re more focussed on relevant technical and career experience than we are qualification status, so applications are invited from both QBE, AAT and part/fully professionally qualified applicants. Previous experience gained in a charity accounting environment would be highly advantageous, but this employer recognises that a commercially astute finance professional, with exposure gained in the private sector will also have a lot to offer here. Either way you’ll be an accomplished accountant with superb organisational and interpersonal skills.
