Head of Finance

Due to the imminent retirement of our Head of Finance we are looking for their replacement with immediate affect.

Reporting to the CEO you will be responsible for the management and development of a small team of 3, all financial operations, treasury management, regulatory compliance and the financial strategy. The YMCA is entering an exciting period of growth and is looking for a qualified accountant to play a key role on our Senior Management Team.  Ideally, the individual will have up-to-date charitable accounting experience and a working knowledge of RSL accounts.  However, these are non essential and for the right candidate, able to demonstrate long-term potential, we can provide the necessary in-house training and development in order for you to fulfil this role effectively. 

You will also need to be able to demonstrate excellent inter-personal and leaderships skills.
