Role

Are you an experienced and motivated finance professional looking to make a difference in Glasgow’s vibrant third sector?

GCVS (Glasgow Council for the Voluntary Sector) is recruiting a Management Accountant to support the financial planning, analysis and reporting across our organisation. This is a great opportunity to contribute your financial expertise to a values-driven organisation working to strengthen communities and support voluntary and community organisations throughout Glasgow.

As part of our Finance and Payroll Services department, you’ll lead on preparing management accounts, supporting budgeting and forecasting processes, and delivering high-quality financial insight to inform decision-making. You’ll also work closely with the Head of Finance and Payroll Services to improve systems and processes, and provide line management to relevant staff.

We’re looking for someone who is qualified or part-qualified, has excellent analytical and communication skills, and enjoys working with others to solve problems and improve services. Experience of using financial systems, Excel, and reporting tools (e.g., Power BI) will be an advantage — as will experience in the voluntary sector.

What We Offer:

  • A reduced full-time working week of 32 hours
  • A supportive and inclusive work environment.
  • Generous employer pension contribution (8%) with life assurance as part of the pension scheme.
  • Flexible working and a supportive hybrid model.
  • 28 days annual leave + fixed 13.5 public holidays.

More Information on the Job Description, Person Specification and Main Employment conditions is provided on the document enclosed.
