We are working with one of Scotland's most recognised charities to find a commercially sharp, values–led Head of Finance.

You will be the right hand to the Director of Finance, helping shape long–term plans while leading the day–to–day running of the finance team.

In this role, you will be involved in a variety of areas from budgeting, forecasting, and reporting to working with fundraising, estates, and transformation teams to support delivery across the organisation.

• Lead and develop a small, close–knit finance team
• Produce monthly management accounts and cash flow analysis
• Manage budgeting and forecasting processes, with senior–level visibility
• Own treasury, payroll review, and investment monitoring
• Act as the financial voice in cross–functional decisions and projects
• Drive improvements across systems, controls, and value–for–money

• A recognised accounting qualification (CA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent)
• Strong financial leadership experience, ideally in a purpose–led or complex organisation
• Comfort presenting financials to boards and non–financial stakeholders
• A collaborative and adaptable approach—someone who gets stuck in
• Prior charity sector or SORP experience would be ideal, but not essential

If this fantastic opportunity aligns with your skills and aspirations, please reach out to the AJ Connect team. We’d love to discuss how this role could be the perfect next step for your career.
