Director of Finance and Resources
Women in Prison (WIP)
£58,000 - £62,000 (includes ILW)
London/hybrid/flexible working
Full time, 4 days considered

Women in Prison is the main national charity focused on women in the criminal justice sector. We exist to support women facing multiple marginalisation and exclusion, who have been let down, and their rights denied. We believe that prison doesnt work and we want to see an end to the harmful imprisonment of women in England and Wales.

Our staff team are passionate, ambitious and grounded in the reality of womens lives. We are proud of our roots as a feminist grassroots organisation, and we have grown from strength to strength since the 1980s, delivering services to women and campaigning for change. We are in our 40th year of supporting women impacted by the criminal justice system. We work with women who are at risk of, or being harmed by, the systems that are meant to protect us.

The successful candidate will lead on a wide range of responsibilities for the charity including managing our resources and systems, organisational development and, critically for an organisation of our size, the financial management of the charity. The role will also lead our internal approaches to embedding equity, diversity and inclusivity into our everyday work and culture.

This is a crucial role. It will support the backbone of WIP to ensure we continue to be fit for purpose, have the most appropriate resources, efficient systems, and anti-oppressive internal practices in place so that every person in WIP is able to fulfil their role to the best of their ability.

Women in Prison works to tackle discrimination and the structural inequalities women experience. We are committed to embedding diversity and inclusion in all areas of our work, including recruitment, and aim to reflect the diversity and excellence of the women that we work with. We actively encourage applications from women from a variety of backgrounds, and with a range of skills and experiences. We are particularly interested to hear from women from Black, Asian and minoritised communities and women with lived experience of the criminal justice system who are underrepresented in leadership positions in our sector.

This role is only open to women, in accordance with the sex-based exemptions of the Equality Act 2010 pursuant to Schedule 9, Part 1.

This post is subject to the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act (Exceptions Order) 1975. Due to the nature of our work it will be necessary for an enhanced disclosure to be made to the Disclosure and Barring Service for details of any previous criminal convictions which are not protected under the Act.

Application is by way of CV and a Supporting Statement, which should outline your motivations for applying.
