East Dunbartonshire Women's Aid (EDWA) is looking for a passionate and skilled individual to join our team.

We are looking for a Finance Officer who will be committed to our aims and values and who will bring extensive financial management experience and skills to our charity.

The main role of the post holder will be to oversee and manage the overall financial health of the charity, ensuring the sustainability of our services and providing financial monitoring information to our main funders and our Board of Trustees.

As our Finance Officer, you'll help ensure that every £1 donated creates maximum impact for the women, children and young people who need it most.

EDWA operates with a high level of funding from a variety of sources and applicants should therefore have at least two years' experience of managing significant budgets with a high degree of autonomy and responsibility.

You are required to have the appropriate skills, experience and qualifications that are relevant to the duties outlined in the job description, including being proficient in the use of Sage One Payroll and Microsoft Excel.

You should have an understanding of the feminist analysis of domestic abuse and be willing to work within the group's collective, non-hierarchical structure.

The role is based in Kirkintilloch with potential for home/flexible working as part of your working week.

Attendance will be required at our weekly team meetings to fulfil collective management responsibilities.

As there may be times where you will informally meet women, children or young people using our services, this post is subject to a successful PVG scheme check.

We will also require suitable references and completion of a satisfactory 6-month induction period.

Women only need apply. The post is covered by a Genuine Occupational Requirement under Schedule 9 (Part
1) of the Equality Act 2010.
