Finance Manager Required

The Free Church of Scotland has some 100 ministers, an overseas missionary programme and a training College, as well as significant property and financial assets.  The Church now wishes to appoint a Finance Manager in the Church’s Central Offices located in Edinburgh.

You will be responsible for a wide range of financial and accounting duties including oversight of the central financial administration of the Church.  You will also provide key support to the Chief Administrative Officer in a number of specific areas.

This is a senior position requiring considerable experience in accounting and financial administration, with knowledge of Charity Accounting preferable.  You will be able to demonstrate the necessary enthusiasm, flexibility and experience to work under your own initiative in a small team environment.

You will be working in a Christian environment and will be expected to deal with Church courts and ministers as well as external organisations. You will be involved in decision making integral to the furtherance of the Church’s mission and it is therefore essential that applicants are sympathetic to the mission and ethos of the Free Church of Scotland.

Applicants may obtain further details from Mrs Sharon Fraser, PA to Chief Administrative Officer, Free Church of Scotland, The Mound, Edinburgh EH1 2LS (tel. 0131 226 5286) or by email at offices@freechurchofscotland.org.uk
