Job summary

The Infected Blood Compensation Authority (IBCA) is a new arms-length body set up, at unprecedented pace, to administer compensation to people whose lives have been impacted by the infected blood scandal.

IBCA will ensure payment is made in recognition of the wrongs experienced by those who have been infected by HIV, Hepatitis B or C, as well as those who love and care for them. They have been frustrated and distressed by the delays in achieving proper recognition, and we must help put this right.

We are committed to putting the infected and affected blood community at the centre of every decision we make and every step we take to build our organisation to deliver compensation payments.

IBCA employees will be public servants. If successful in this role you will be appointed directly into IBCA, on IBCA terms and conditions as a public servant.

Successful applicants will join the Civil Service Pension Scheme.

Please note that the mission of IBCA means that it is likely to be fully operational for a period of approximately up to 5 years, after which IBCA will become a smaller residual service. When IBCAs work begins to wind down, IBCA employees will receive support and practical guidance to find a new role, whether in the Civil Service, another Arms Length Body (ALB), or an external employer.

This role offers a unique opportunity to apply your professional financial expertise to a highly impactful cause, within a fast paced environment. The environment provides a great space for individuals to stretch, challenge and develop, with lots of opportunities to work across the breadth of the finance function and with the breadth and depth of the organisation.
As a Financial Accountant, you will work within the Financial Accounting team, a core component of the IBCA Finance team. Within the role you will act as an internal technical expert, with responsibility and leadership of key aspects for external reporting and group compliance.
You will play a crucial part in applying and continuously improving robust financial controls with supporting documentation and reporting., You will ensure absolute ledger integrity, and provide expert technical accounting advice to professionally support the Infected Blood Compensation Authority, our accounting officer and our audit, risk and assurance committee.
Youll succeed in this role if you enjoy a technical challenge, like variety, and thrive in a fast paced scaling organisation.

Job description

You will take ownership of complex day-to-day financial accounting processes, maintain robust internal controls, and ensure highly accurate financial record-keeping.
You will lead on critical technical accounting areas such as capital accounting, the integration of operational modelling for the compensation provision into the accounts, and tax compliance. This role demands an experienced, highly proactive finance professional with a meticulous eye for detail and a strong ability to manage competing priorities. You will be expected to champion best practices, design resilient financial frameworks, and translate complex financial data for non-finance stakeholders.
The post holder will have routine monthly, quarterly hard close and year end responsibilities and leadership across finance and on behalf of finance within our organisation.

Technical Accounting: Leading on specific technical workstreams, including the practical calculation, accounting treatment, and monitoring of compensation scheme provisions and capital assets.

Advisory & Compliance: Providing expert technical accounting advice to diverse stakeholders across the IBCA and ensuring strict adherence to accounting standards, Managing Public Money guidelines and statutory tax compliance.
Team Member: Motivating, and working with colleagues across finance and IBCA to foster a high-performing, supportive, and continuous-improvement culture.

Person specification

Technical Expertise: A fully qualified accountant or working towards (CCAB, CIMA, or equivalent) qualification with commitment to complete the qualification whilst at IBCA.

Control Environment: Proven experience in designing, implementing, and continuously improving robust financial controls and accounting processes, ideally within a public sector or newly established environment.
Analytical Rigour: Exceptional analytical and problem-solving abilities, with a meticulous eye for detail and a steadfast commitment to data integrity and accurate record-keeping.
Stakeholder Engagement: Experience developing strong, sustainable relationships with internal and external stakeholders, alongside the ability to clearly communicate complex accounting concepts to non-finance audiences.
Systems Proficiency: Highly competent use of IT packages and financial systems, coupled with excellent organisational and time-management skills.

Additional information:

A minimum 60% of your working time should be spent at your principal workplace. Although requirements to attend other locations for official business will also count towards this level of attendance.
