Finance Officer

Opportunity for an experienced Finance Officer to join a not-for-profit organisation on a short term assignment during a busy period.

I’m supporting a respected not-for-profit organisation in London that is urgently seeking an experienced Finance Officer to join them on a short-term basis. This is a hands-on role providing critical support during a particularly busy period — and we're looking for someone who can start immediately.

The role will focus on core transactional finance duties, including sales ledger, purchase ledger, credit control, and staff expenses. Experience with Access Financials is highly desirable, and a background in the not-for-profit or charity sector would be a plus.

Key Responsibilities:

Raise and issue sales invoices, monitor incoming payments, and manage credit control

Process purchase invoices, ensuring correct coding and approvals

Maintain accurate supplier and customer records

Reconcile accounts and assist with expense processing

Support the team with audit prep and general finance admin as needed

Candidate Profile:

Immediately available and able to hit the ground running

Previous experience in a finance support role, ideally within a charity or not-for-profit environment

Confident managing sales/purchase ledger, credit control, and staff expenses

Familiarity with Access Financials is highly desirable

Strong attention to detail and good working knowledge of Excel

Flexible, reliable, and a strong team player

If you're a finance professional looking for a meaningful, short-term assignment where you can make a difference from day one, I’d love to hear from you.

Please get in touch to apply or find out more.
