Shape the Future of Cumbria

Cumbria is entering a bold new chapter.

The creation of the Cumbria Combined Authority (CCA) marks a once-in-a-generation opportunity to unlock the full potential of one of England’s most distinctive places. With devolution bringing new powers, new investment and a directly elected Mayor from May 2027, the Authority will play a central role in driving inclusive growth, improving public services and championing the needs of communities across Cumbria.

As we establish the organisation, we are seeking a Head of Finance (Deputy Section 73 Officer) to join us on our journey.

About this opportunity

This is a rare opportunity to help build a new organisation and establish a finance function that will support its long-term success.

Reporting to the Section 73 Officer, you'll provide leadership across management accounting, financial accounting, budgeting, treasury management, taxation and exchequer services. Combining strategic oversight with operational leadership, you'll ensure the organisation has the robust financial management, controls and insight needed to support its ambitions from day one.

You'll lead the production of statutory accounts, oversee budget setting and medium-term financial planning, and provide high-quality financial information to support informed decision-making. The role also includes responsibility for key operational finance functions, including accounts payable and receivable, VAT compliance, cash flow management and banking arrangements, ensuring public funds are managed efficiently, transparently and in line with statutory requirements.

Working closely with the Section 73 Officer, you'll help develop and embed strong financial control, risk management and investment frameworks while providing expert advice on a range of complex and high-profile issues. You'll build effective relationships with senior leaders, Board members, auditors, partners and legacy councils, helping to ensure continuity, resilience and strong financial governance during a significant period of organisational development.

As Deputy Section 73 Officer, you'll also play an important role in developing high-performing teams, establishing effective systems and processes, and providing leadership across the finance function, including deputising for the Section 73 Officer when required.

Who we are looking for…

We're looking for an experienced and forward-thinking finance professional who combines strong technical expertise with excellent leadership and communication skills.

You'll hold a recognised CCAB qualification, such as CIPFA, ACA, ACCA or CIMA, and be committed to maintaining and developing your professional knowledge through continuing professional development.

You'll bring significant experience in financial management and accounting, together with a strong understanding of budgeting, forecasting, financial reporting, financial controls and audit requirements. Experience of improving systems, strengthening processes and driving continuous improvement will be important, while experience gained within a regulated or publicly accountable environment would be advantageous.

Just as importantly, you'll be able to build credibility and positive working relationships with a wide range of stakeholders, communicating complex financial matters clearly and confidently. You'll be proactive, adaptable and solutions-focused, with the ability to operate both strategically and operationally in a fast-evolving environment.

If you're excited by the opportunity to help establish a new organisation, shape its financial future and make a lasting contribution to the success of Cumbria Combined Authority, we'd love to hear from you.

Why Join Cumbria Combined Authority?

Be part of a brand-new organisation with real devolved powers
Work with passionate partners across public, private and community sectors
Make a tangible difference to places, people and opportunities across Cumbria
Leave a lasting legacy by preparing the Authority for long-term success

If you are inspired by the opportunity to build something new, meaningful and impactful, and to help shape the future of Cumbria, we would love to hear from you.

Join us at the start of Cumbria’s journey – and help turn ambition into reality.

Location

This role may be suitable for hybrid working, which means an employee works part of their time in the office and part from home. This is a voluntary and non‑contractual arrangement between you and your manager, and your contractual place of work will remain your office location.

If a hybrid working arrangement is suitable for both the role and for you, you will normally be required to spend a minimum of 40% of your working hours in the office. Our main office is at Redhills, near Penrith. We are also able to use offices of our partner authorities across the county to help fulfil this expectation.

Please discuss any caring responsibilities, disabilities, or other circumstances that may affect your ability to meet this minimum office attendance requirement with the recruiting manager.

Application and Interview information

Closing date: 19/07/2026

Final interview date: 28/07/2026 & 29/07/2026

Interview details such as venue/timings will be shared with successful candidates, following the shortlisting process. If you have any concerns or adjustments are needed, we are happy to discuss this with you.

Please note that Westmorland and Furness Council is providing recruitment support on behalf of the Cumbria Combined Authority. As part of this process, applicants will complete a Westmorland and Furness Council application form.
