If you are a qualified finance professional with a desire to develop your career in finance then this is a fantastic opportunity to join the St Mungo's Finance team in the newly created role of Assistant Financial Business Partner.

Working as part of a team of six you will be responsible for supporting operations managers in understanding and interpreting their financial results. Ensuring these operations managers have the information at hand to make informed financial business decisions is core to this. Key responsibilities will include:

Good influencing and negotiation skills are essential as you will be supporting Operations teams in preparing and renegotiating for the renewal of existing contracts. Applications from all sectors are welcomed but experience of working under pressure and to tight deadlines is highly beneficial.

If you believe that you have the skills, knowledge and drive that we are looking for, and a passion for working for a charity that makes a real difference to the lives of homeless people, we would love to hear from you.
