Director of Finance and Transformation Walsingham Support

Closing Date: 9 a.m. Monday 8th December

Who we are

Walsingham Support has been supporting individuals with learning disabilities, autism and complex needs across England and Wales for over 39 years. We pride ourselves on putting people at the heart of what we do, enabling us to deliver truly person-centred support solutions that increase independence and improve quality of life. The Charity is led by an executive team that has developed plans over the last two years to ensure the organisation is financially sustainable while driving transformation in the way we operate and provide services. Social care continues to evolve, and we aim to be at the leading edge of this, innovating and building services tailored to the needs and choices of the people we support.

We recognise that to achieve this, we need to develop our internal systems and processes, ensuring that our teams are supported and enabled to innovate and be creative in the way services are delivered.

About the role

The Director of Finance and Transformation is central to helping us deliver this, as a member of the executive leadership team, leading not only Walsingham Support's financial management and planning but also driving the significant organisational change agenda embedded in the 5-year strategy.

You will be responsible for leading the teams across Finance, IT, Project Management & Change and Service Support. We are seeking an experienced finance professional with strong experience in delivering digital transformation and organisational growth and development in previous roles.

Who we are looking for

As important as your technical skills and experience, your approach will be collaborative and inclusive, and your measure of success will be focused as much on the outcomes and impact for the people we support as the financial targets. We are a leadership team that embraces and leads change, and we do this by helping our teams on the journey.

This is a role that offers a vast amount of scope and opportunities to have a tangible impact on the people we support and on the organisation's success. It comes with plenty of challenges and demands, but the reward is the personal impact that you can have.

Location: Hybrid: Home-based with the requirement to attend meetings in London occasionally and the ability to travel to locations across England and Wales
