The Free Church of Scotland is recruiting for a Finance Manager. The current Finance Manager is moving to a new role at the beginning of September.

We are looking for an enthusiastic and capable person who will:

  • provide accurate and timely financial reporting for the denomination,
  • advise budget holders and senior stakeholders on all financial related matters,
  • have oversight of a small finance team and
  • provide support to local congregational treasurers on charity finance and best practice. 

The Finance Manager will have strong accounting skills, be experienced in financial reporting, be highly organised and self-motivated and will have a desire to manage Church finances well. Experience of charity finance and guiding non-finance stakeholders would be helpful. 

There is an Occupational Requirement under the Equality Act 2010 for the post holder to be a committed Christian. As such, the successful candidate will be a Christian with an active commitment in a local church congregation, who is supportive of the values, aims and ethos of the Free Church of Scotland.

This role is based in the Central Office in Edinburgh with the option of some remote working. This is an exciting opportunity for someone to use their professional skills in a vocational Christian role.
