Job description

This job is brought to you by Jobs/Redefined, the UK's leading over-50s age inclusive jobs board.

Fixed-term until 13 April 2026

Plan International UK is a global children's charity striving for an equal world. One where every child can reach their full potential and every girl can choose her own future.

We bring people together to protect children's rights and keep girls safe, in school and in control of their bodies - even when disaster strikes. And we won't stop until we are all equal.

We have a fantastic short-term opportunity for a talented and dynamic finance professional to join our Finance Team. This is an existing role which works across Finance, International Programmes and the wider organisation to provide financial oversight of the funding awards, supporting development of funding budget proposals, financial donor reporting and analysis to support informed decision making and enhance organisational performance.

We are looking for an experienced finance officer with strong analytical skills, who has good attention to detail but can also step back and see the bigger picture. You must have excellent communication and collaboration skills and the ability to work with directors and heads of department and people from a non-finance background.

If this sounds like you, and you have a genuine passion for our values, feminist leadership principles and vision, we would love to hear from you!

For further detail of this role, please see the job profile.

Please note, due to the short nature of this contract and a requirement for the successful candidate to be able to start in July 2025, unfortunately on this occasion we are unable to provide sponsorship for this role.

The deadline for applications is 23:59 on Wednesday 25 June 2025

Interviews will take place on Monday 30 June 2025

We are committed to the safeguarding and protection of children, young people and adults in our work. We, therefore, apply rigorous recruitment and selection processes to ensure that only those who are suitable are recruited to work for us. Accordingly, appointment to all our roles is subject to a range of vetting checks and for this role this will include a Basic Disclosure and Barring (DBS) check. A criminal record will not necessarily bar you from working for us; this will depend on the circumstances of any offences

Plan International UK is committed to being an inclusive employer and we welcome applications from candidates from all backgrounds.
