Business And Finance Manager

About the role

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join a dynamic and rapidly growing team as Business and Finance Manager in the Business Team within the Nursing, Quality and Integrated Governance (NQIG) Directorate.

The NQIG Directorate brings together three key divisions:
Nursing and Quality, Integrated Governance, and the National Safeguarding Service. Our shared mission is to enhance quality and capability across public health services in Wales. We do this by engaging with, enabling, and empowering those we work with and serve, helping to build a healthier future for all.

The Business Team plays a vital role in supporting the three divisions within the NQIG Directorate. We work behind the scenes to ensure smooth operations by managing and monitoring budgets, workplans, and risk registers. Beyond financial oversight, we also provide essential administrative and project management support to help teams stay on track and achieve their goals efficiently.

• You will lead on the management of the Directorate’s budget, ensuring financial plans are robust, well-governed and aligned to organisational priorities. This includes supporting financial planning, forecasting, procurement activity and ensuring compliance with financial frameworks and Standing Financial Instructions.
• Alongside this, you will provide high‑quality business support, leading key functions including governance, planning, performance and corporate reporting. You will play a central role in ensuring that workplans, milestones and performance information are effectively managed and reported to senior leaders.

We are Public Health Wales – the national public health agency in Wales. Our purpose is ‘Working together for a healthier Wales’. We exist to help everyone in Wales live longer, healthier, happier lives. Together with our partners, we work to increase healthy life expectancy, improve health and well‑being, and reduce inequalities for everyone in Wales, now and for future generations.

We are guided by our Values, ‘Working together, with trust and respect, to make a difference’. We are committed to building an inclusive workplace that values equality and diversity. We welcome applications which represent the rich diversity of the communities we serve and are supportive of flexible working arrangements, including part time roles and job sharing.
