The role

We’re seeking a Head of Finance to join our fantastic Finance team!

This is an exciting role to help us continue the transformation of our finance function and financial understanding across the

charity.

You will be elevating our financial reporting and business planning to ensure we’re proactive and forward looking in our approach.

In support of the transformation, you will have responsibility for embedding Financial Business Partnering across the charity to
provide essential support to colleagues, and ensuring the financial lens is applied to decision making, whilst being conscious of

wider considerations and needs of the organisation.

About You
  • We’re looking for an individual with excellent communications skills and a strong Finance business partnering approach.
  • You will have a continuous improvement mindset, with the drive to make a difference, and a proven track record of bringing
people on a finance transformation journey.
  • You are also a strong technical accountant, who is solution focused and sufficiently self-motivated to learn and improve

systems and processes.

If this sounds like you – we’d love to hear from you!

About working for us

This is a fast-paced and growing organisation that is really committed to making a difference. Being a part of our team is being
part of a thriving, positive, dynamic, successful, and welcoming community that is making an impact. We will support you and
develop you should you wish this, and you get the opportunity to be involved in activities outside the scope of your immediate
role. We care about your health and well-being and your work-life balance, and you will feel that your contribution is valued and

matters.

About us

Pancreatic cancer is a tough one but we're taking it on. It is tough to diagnose, tough to treat, and tough to research. For too

long this disease has been side-lined. We want to make sure that everyone affected by it gets all the help they need. Together we

are taking on pancreatic cancer. Underpinning this vision are our three values:

  • Courageous
  • Collaborative
  • Compassion

We cannot achieve our vision without employing people who are committed to our vision, strategy, and values.

At Pancreatic Cancer UK (PCUK) our ambition is to create an inclusive working environment that reflects the communities and
audiences that we engage with and where everyone can be their true selves, where they feel respected, championed, heard, and
supported. We want our workforce to achieve their potential, understand their contribution and feel proud of their impact by
creating a culture and organisation that is genuinely inclusive by advancing equality, diversity, inclusion, and belonging through

our policies and practices.

We believe diversity drives great outcomes by encouraging the different points of view that come from a diverse workforce. We want
to hear from and engage with people whose experience of dealing with this disease may be very different depending on their
individual circumstances and background. We can think of no better way to do this than by making sure this role fully represents
our intent; therefore, we are especially keen to consider applications from suitable applicants who consider themselves to be in

areas that appear underrepresented within the charity sector.

Safeguarding

PCUK is committed to safe and fair recruitment processes that safeguard and protect those we work with, support and serve. We make
sure all our staff are selected, vetted (DBS/Criminal record checks where appropriate), trained, and supervised fairly and to a
high standard so that they can provide safe, effective and compassionate care. Where we work with volunteers, we extend the same

support in order to ensure that they are working within our ethos and standards.

Hybrid-working

Our London office is a place to connect, collaborate and celebrate with colleagues, we recognise that flexibility around where you
work is just as important. We are currently working hybrid with a minimum of 2-3 days in the office. This is an office based role
where you may be required to be in the office more frequently to attend activities and meetings depending on the needs of the

role.
