Named Financial Advocate - Learning Disability | Flexible | Hybrid position which involves working from home and local travel.

Are you passionate about supporting people with a learning disability and making a genuine difference around finances in the social care and charity/non-profit sector?

We have an exciting opportunity within Huntingdon to be our next Financial Advocate.

In this rewarding advocacy role, you'll act as an Appointee and Financial Advocate, helping people with a learning disability to have choice, independence and control over their finances. This is a people-focused role where person-centred support, dignity and empowerment are at the heart of everything you do.

Money is a deeply personal part of everyday life. As a Financial Advocate and Appointee, you'll build trusted relationships with the people you support, working closely with families, support teams and social workers. You'll use your finance, banking and/or benefits skills to help individuals manage their money safely, make informed financial decisions and achieve outcomes that matter to them.

Through your support, people will gain confidence, reassurance and greater independence in their daily lives.

Flexible Working | Annualised Hours | Work-Life Balance

We understand the importance of flexibility in work today. This role is ideal for someone seeking flexible working through annualised hours, allowing you to manage your own hours and workload across the week and throughout the year while continuing to deliver high-quality support. The role is primarily weekday-based, with core hours within usual office hours, and potential for early morning, evening or weekend work, supported by a flexible and understanding approach to work-life balance.

This hybrid position involves working from home with local travel for those you support.

You’ll also be part of a wider, supportive organisation, working alongside experienced advocates, managers and admin and finance teams who are also working from home across the country, or based in our office in Grantham.

We’re looking for someone with a genuine commitment to social care values, advocacy and empowerment, alongside strong financial, communication and self-organisation skills.

If you’re searching for a meaningful non-profit finance job, enjoy working with people, and want a role where your work truly improves lives, this could be the perfect opportunity for you.
