Full job description

Head of Finance - Remote (with occasional UK travel)

About the role:

This is a senior leadership role sitting at the heart of a growing social care organisation supporting adults with learning disabilities and mental health needs across the UK.

As Head of Finance, you will lead the finance function and act as a key partner to the Director of Finance & Transformation and the wider Senior Leadership Team.

You will take ownership of financial integrity, reporting, and insight while also driving the modernisation of systems, processes and ways of working.

This is not a steady-state finance role.

You will be expected to challenge how things are done, simplify complexity, and build a finance function that is scalable, automated and fit for future growth.

You will oversee everything from monthly management accounts and statutory reporting through to budgeting, forecasting, cashflow, audit and compliance.

Alongside this, you will lead a team of 10 and play a central role in shaping performance, culture and capability.

A key part of the role is transformation. You will own the finance systems roadmap, identify opportunities for automation and improved controls, and help move the function towards a more modern, insight-led model.

What you will be doing:

Leading end-to-end finance operations including management accounts, statutory accounts and year-end audit
Owning budgeting, forecasting and long-term financial planning across the organisation
Driving financial insight to support operational and strategic decision-making
Managing cashflow, banking relationships and treasury activity
Ensuring full compliance with UK accounting standards and Charity SORP requirements
Leading system improvement, automation and finance transformation initiatives
Developing and leading a high-performing finance team with clear accountability and support
Acting as a senior advisor to the Director of Finance & Transformation and deputising when required
Supporting strategic work including financial modelling, scenario planning and growth initiatives

What we are looking for:

Fully qualified accountant (CIMA, ACCA or ACA)
Significant experience leading finance teams in complex organisations
Strong technical grounding in management accounts, statutory reporting and audit
Experience leading budgeting, forecasting and financial modelling
Confidence improving systems, processes and controls in a changing environment
Strong leadership skills with the ability to develop and stretch teams
Clear communicator who can influence senior stakeholders and non-finance colleagues
Experience in the charity or regulated sector is helpful, but not essential

Why join us:

You will be stepping into a role where finance is central to how we deliver care and support.

You will have real influence, not just oversight.

You will also be joining an organisation that is actively investing in transformation and wants finance to lead, not follow.

Benefits with Walsingham Support...

Fully remote role with some travel
33 days holiday (rising to 43 after 6 months probation - this includes Bank Holidays)
Pension contributions and life assurance (3x salary)
Funded qualifications and apprenticeship opportunities
Employee Assistance Programme and bereavement helpline
Walsingham Rewards Scheme and Blue Light Card discounts
Long service awards and a £250 recommend-a-friend bonus

Work with Walsingham and make a real difference to people's lives

About Us:

Walsingham Support has been operating across England and Wales since 1986. We enhance the lives of people with learning disabilities, autism, brain injuries and other complex needs.

We're different because we pride ourselves on putting the people we support at the centre of everything we do. We do this by delivering specifically tailored support for every individual we work with.

At Walsingham Support, our staff teams are the linchpin of our organisation and they are passionate about our ambition.

We work in an equal and diverse society in which people with disabilities are citizens in their own right.

We support them so that they can reach their own potential. By working with Walsingham Support, you'll be supporting disabled people live their lives to the full.

Our Vision:

Walsingham Support will grow to become a leader in the social care sector to meet the evolving needs of people we support and the higher expectations they have around how they live.
We will reinforce the voices of all those with learning disabilities, autistic people and other complex needs to challenge the status quo, disrupt perceived limitations and influence sector wide change.

Our Mission:

We see the person not the limitations. We work alongside adults with complex needs to fulfil their life aspirations. We employ and develop exceptional people. We are agile, continuously learning as we respond to evolving needs.

Our Values:

People Focused: Whether it is staff or the people we support, we strive for people to live their best lives.
One Team: Achieving meaningful outcomes by coming together to create a friendly, proactive and inclusive culture.
Say it as it is: Every voice is heard and respected, we encourage open and transparent communication.
Ambitious: Determined to be the best in everything we do.

When we hire new people, we look for team players who take pride in what they do and adopt a can-do attitude.

Each and every member of the team plays a vital role in making a huge difference to individual lives by helping them to reach their full potential.

In return, well help you to exceed your career ambitions, aims and aspirations.
