Role

Looking for a new challenge and a role where you can add value? Changeworks is recruiting a Management Accountant to lead the core finance function within our small and collaborative team.

Technically strong and methodical, you’ll take ownership of month-end reporting, reconciliations, VAT compliance, and system oversight. You’ll also line-manage our Finance Assistant and support process improvements across the team. This role is hands-on, varied, and central to the effective running of our finance operations.

You’ll need solid core accounting skills, excellent attention to detail, and the confidence to manage your own workload. You must be a member of or actively working towards full membership of a professional accountancy body (e.g. ACCA, CIMA, CIPFA), and we’ll support your continued development.

This is a great opportunity to take ownership, contribute and be part of a friendly, values-driven team.

Changeworks is a leading organisation dedicated to decarbonising Scotland’s homes and a just transition to net zero.

About us

Changeworks is a leading organisation dedicated to decarbonising Scotland’s homes and a just transition to net zero. We deliver services in energy advice, retrofit management, and decarbonisation solutions, alongside independent consultancy. Through partnerships across the UK, we help accelerate the transformation of Scotland’s homes toward sustainability. 

Changeworks is a great place to work. We hold Investors in People Platinum accreditation (something only a few organisations in Scotland have), and we were nominated for employer of the year by the Edinburgh Chamber of Commerce this year. Our staff overwhelmingly would recommend us as an employer too.

The Climate Emergency has resulted in ambitious national targets to reduce carbon emissions from the built environment and reduce rates of fuel poverty. This has driven a significant increase in the number of pilot and large-scale interventions delivered by Changeworks and external organisations in this area. These include area-based domestic energy efficiency retrofit and decarbonisation projects and programmes.

We are a growing organisation, and this role is crucial to the delivery of our ambitious objectives. We want to decarbonise homes in Scotland on a massive scale, and that needs talented individuals like you to help us deliver on our objectives. You’ll receive full training plus coaching and mentoring.

We offer a wide range of staff benefits including flexible working, bike to work scheme, an excellent pension scheme and 26 days paid holiday plus 9 public holidays per year.

At Changeworks, we welcome and encourage applications from everyone.
