Working environment

We are currently working with a hybrid working model, where there is the option of working from home combined with 4-12 days a month of working in the office.

About this role

An expert advisor provides strategic advice and support to YoungMinds. Although they are not a Trustee and do not have formal decision-making authority, they are a valuable resource for Trustees of YoungMinds and the Executive Team.

Expert Advisors help YoungMinds gain new insights and provide advice to solve problems or explore new opportunities by stimulating robust, high-quality discussions.

They bring current knowledge, critical thinking, feedback and analysis to help increase the confidence of Trustees and the Executive Team and strengthen organisational resilience.

Expert Advisors can be subject matter experts, stakeholder representatives and/or experienced professionals. They are appointed for their knowledge and direct experience to problem solve, explore options/concepts and strategic direction.

The role of expert advisors is critical to YoungMinds success but can be considerably more ‘light touch’ in terms of process. There is no need for elections, term limits and or attendance at board meetings. Expert Advisors are free to concentrate their energies on their core role, which is to complement the Sub Committees by providing specialist experience, knowledge and capacity that is not readily available elsewhere.

2024-2025 was a challenging year for many in the charity sector, however it was also a period of profound impact, strategic adaptation and renewed focus on the young people we serve. Although our income rose slightly this year, costs have also increased, and we have made tough choices about the size, shape and focus of our organisation. We completed an organisational change programme in early 2025, focusing on financial sustainability and consolidating our service delivery work reducing staffing levels by around 25%. We continue to have a deficit operating budget and a number of organisational vulnerabilities as we move towards a new and ambitious strategy in 2026.

Our executive team, board and audit and risk committee are looking to identify a finance expert who can join us to help drive the following outcomes:

- Enhancing the audit and risk committee's capacity for informed decision-making on complex financial and risk matters.
- Strengthening YoungMinds' financial resilience and sustainability in a challenging economic landscape, as evidenced by fluctuating income and increasing expenditure in recent years (see our annual reports).
- Increasing Board confidence that financial reporting, internal controls, and risk management processes are robust, effective, and compliant with relevant charity and company regulations.
- Confidence in YoungMinds financial viability as we begin implementing our new strategy from 2026.

About you

We are looking for an individual who brings:

Extensive senior-level experience in finance, accounting, audit, or financial risk management, ideally within the charity or not-for-profit sector although this is not critical.
Deep knowledge of regulatory best practice, including financial reporting standards, internal control frameworks, and risk management principles.
Proven ability to provide strategic advice, constructive challenge, and critical analysis on complex financial and risk issues.
Confidence to engage effectively, acting as a critical friend to Board members (including Chair of audit and risk and the lead finance trustee), senior leadership, and auditors. Offering challenge that is constructive, evidence based and focused on long term sustainability.
A strong commitment to the mission and values of YoungMinds and a passion for improving young people's mental health.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to articulate complex financial concepts clearly and concisely for people with limited financial literacy.
