Job Details

About the Role

We are seeking a talented, enthusiastic finance professional to join our team and play a key role in the development and delivery of the ICR's financial plans and priorities over the next 12 months. This role is a fixed term vacancy to cover the current post-holder's maternity leave.  This is an exciting time to join the Finance Team because we are implementing a new ERP system and you will be working closely with the project team as well as supporting the delivery of "business as usual" financial support to the organisation. 

Key Responsibilities

  • Preparing high quality financial and performance reporting and insightful analysis for management review;
  • Monitoring and reporting on external funding body grants and strategic funds that support the ICR's activity;
  • Producing budgetary analysis and scenario modelling data for review by Directors and ICR Committees;
  • Producing financial data analysis to support the production of the Annual Financial Return (5 year plan), the statutory accounts and the TRAC return.
  • Leading the month-end reporting process, including coordination with the wider Finance team and non-finance stakeholders.

About You

We are looking for a detail-orientated financial analyst who is adept at interpreting data and working on their own initiative as well as building relationships with colleagues at all levels across the organisation.  You will be a fully qualified CCAB accountant or finalist, with excellent communication skills and an aptitude for problem solving.  You will also need to be self motivated and be able to manage a varied workload, but you will also have the opportunity to get your ideas heard and to make a real difference to the way the Finance Team operates going forward.

What We Offer
  • A supportive and collaborative working environment.
  • Opportunities for professional development and career progression.
  • Competitive salary and pension
  • Flexible working conditions including hybrid working (usually 2 days per week on site).

Department/Directorate Information

This role sits within the Financial Operations and Control Team which is part of the Finance Department.
