Contract: Permanent
Salary: £45,000 - £50,000 (dependent on experience)
Capital Credit Union is the fifth largest Credit Union in Scotland, with over 31,000 members. The Credit Union provides a range of financial services and products, and it has assets of more than £42 million.
The Credit Union's aim is to expand its services and products to a wide range of people and provide access to affordable credit for our members. As the Credit Union grows, there are more regulation and accounting requirements; therefore, the Finance Department is critical to the growth of the Credit Union. The Senior Finance Manager role will work closely with the Director of Finance & Compliance and the Finance, IT, and Credit Control Teams to ensure that we provide accurate and timely management information and a first-class service to our members.
This post provides a great opportunity to help develop the accounting, regulatory, and monitoring processes for a growing business.
