Finance Officer

A leading international environmental and conservation-focused organisation is seeking an Interim Finance Officer to support its London-based team for an initial three-month contract. With a pioneering funding model backed by a highly credible philanthropic founder, the organisation supports environmental partners across the globe-from small grassroots groups to established international NGOs-working to tackle some of the world\'s most pressing biodiversity challenges.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone with strong charity finance experience to play a hands-on role supporting the Finance Manager during a busy year-end period, helping to strengthen processes, keep systems in order, and ensure the organisation remains well-positioned to deliver on its mission.

As the Interim Finance Officer your role will involve:

• Processing payments, managing journals in NetSuite, chasing invoices, and carrying out bank reconciliations

• Supporting cashflow monitoring and ensuring records are up to date and accurate

• Working closely with the Finance Manager to tidy NetSuite ahead of audit and contribute to smooth year-end processes (December year-end)

• Assisting with budget preparation and financial housekeeping to ensure everything is in order for year-end review

• Taking responsibility for day-to-day bookkeeping tasks and ensuring financial data integrity across the organisation

The ideal Finance Officer will be:

• Experienced in charity finance, ideally having worked within the not-for-profit or international development sectors

• Confident using NetSuite (this is key), with the ability to pick up system nuances quickly

• Solid in their understanding of debits and credits, able to identify when journals are incorrect and flag issues appropriately

• Comfortable with transactional finance tasks but also proactive in supporting wider finance priorities

• Happy to get stuck in and support the Finance Manager, freeing up time for higher-level work

This role offers a day rate of around £250, depending on experience. Hybrid working is in place, with two days per week expected in the Central London office.

This is a fantastic short-term opportunity (with the possibility of extension or permanency) to join a values-driven, globally-minded organisation and contribute meaningfully to their mission while ensuring financial systems and processes run smoothly at a crucial point in the year.
