FarmAbility is a local independent charity that is committed to improving the quality of lives through access to meaningful activities for adults who have a learning disability. We deliver farming and horticultural-based programmes in partnership with community-based and local farms and gardens. These programmes offer people who have a learning disability the opportunity to engage in daily purposeful activities that not only improve physical and mental health and wellbeing but also foster a sense of community and allow the development and strengthening of their skills and abilities.
Are you an experienced finance professional? Do you know how to keep track of and manage reporting for multiple strands of incoming and outgoing funds, run charity accounting processes, create clear, meticulously checked budgets, and support other people to use and properly input data into financial record-keeping systems? Are you committed to the ideals of inclusivity and supporting everyone in society to reach their potential? If so, this may be the role for you!
We are recruiting for a new, National Lottery funded role of Finance Lead. This role will play a key part in ensuring the smooth running of the financial processes of FarmAbility, ensuring that robust procedures, effective digital systems, and collaborative teamwork are in use.
You will manage FarmAbility’s day-to-day finances, providing financial information to the FarmAbility CEO and other FarmAbility staff on request. You’ll assist the CEO and Treasurer on the Board of Trustees to provide up-to-date and accurate financial reporting to the quarterly board meetings. You’ll support the accurate and timely monitoring and management of accounts payable, grant funds, and individual giving donations, along with managing monthly credit control, gift aid reports, and bank reconciliation.
This is a multi-faceted role with opportunities to grow and develop. You’ll work with colleagues across the organisation. There is scope for taking on more advanced finance tasks in the future, should you desire to develop in the role.
We are a certified Oxford Living Wage employer.
