Job Description

About us

Christian Aid exists to create a world where everyone can live a full life, free from poverty. We are a global movement of people, churches, and local organizations who passionately champion dignity, equality, and justice worldwide. We are the changemakers, the peacemakers, the mighty of heart.

We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace and recognize the value this brings in forming strong, creative, and high-performing teams. We welcome applications from all sections of the community and those with experience from outside of the voluntary sector. And no, you don’t have to be Christian to work here – we encourage people of all faiths and none to apply. We just ask that everyone live out our values of dignity, equality, justice, and love. We value a good work-life balance, so we’re open to part-time and flexible working. We also offer hybrid working for our office-based colleagues and the option of being a homeworker for most of our roles too.

The Head of Finance will establish and manage the finance and operations functions in the implementation of this major contract. Please note that any employment offer will be dependent on Christian Aid securing the donor contract.
