Finance Officer - Blackland Farm/ Glenbrook

Job content

This is a really exciting time to join Girlguiding. We have much to be proud of in our one hundred years of history, but we know that to remain vibrant and relevant to young people we must continually evolve.

We have begun a process of significant change: transforming the organisation so it can meet the challenges of the future by putting young people at the heart of our organisation. We are on a mission to amplify the voices of girls and young women, so they can champion change in their own lives and the wider world; to build strong partnerships that can increase our reach and impact; and to increase the support we offer our amazing adult volunteers who deliver incredible experiences to young people across the UK every week.

We have a fantastic opportunity for a part time Finance Officer to join our team at Blackland Farm Activity Centre for 25 hours per week.

The successful candidate must have experience in a variety of financial processes and be familiar with reconciliation and data entry. You will ensure accurate and efficient processing and recording of all financial transactions for the Centre, whilst also completing month-end and assisting the manager in the preparation of budgets and quarterly reports. Please note that this post includes 20hrs of direct support to Blackland Farm and approx. 5hrs of virtual support for one of our smaller Centres within the group, known as Glenbrook.

If you would like to be part of an enthusiastic and dynamic team and assist in making Blackland Farm and Gelnbrook centres of excellence in their field, this may be the role for you. A sense of humour and the ability to smile is essential!
