This is an exciting opportunity to make a difference in a newly created role.
Parkinson’s UK is a charity with an income of £38m and in a strong position to invest in our future ambition.
Guided by the Parkinson’s community, we’ve shaped our strategy ‘Every Parkinson’s Journey’ for 2023 to 2026. A key element of our approach is to use the money we have in the charity’s reserves to improve services for people with Parkinson’s and accelerate our research agenda.
We're a growing organisation with complex operations, major parts of which are in a phase of significant transition. To deliver these most effectively, we brought together our financial management and operations together into one directorate in July 2023. To reflect the growing demand on expertise, the finance team’s capacity has increased and there is a real opportunity to develop the role of this team within the charity.
As a senior member of the Parkinson's UK Executive Leadership Team (ELT), and working closely with the CEO you will drive and deliver the charity’s financial, operational and technological strategies which are fundamental to ensure we can deliver the impact and changes we want for our community.
You will lead our planning, performance and programme management functions to ensure we are well informed and can challenge where needed and provide an effective framework for good governance and risk management so that the right balance of risk can be effectively managed across the charity.
