We are passionate about why we exist as a Trust, and it’s important to us that our next CFO shares this passion and brings the necessary skills, knowledge, and expertise to enable us to keep making the biggest difference.
The CFO will be a professionally qualified accountant with significant experience of having operated at an Executive / Senior level. Experience in leading strategic financial planning, risk management, and reporting are the basic cornerstones of this role.
