Head of Finance

This is an exciting opportunity to join our dynamic and growing organisation as Head of Finance, on a 12–month contract.

Owned and run by our co–operative members for nearly 150 years, Co–operatives UK promotes, develops and unites the diverse range of member–owned businesses, which together contribute over £38bn to the UK economy. 

Our finance team is vitally important to us as an organisation. With a staff team of around 40 people, diverse investments, membership subscriptions and sales income to manage, they keep us on the front foot in terms of financial planning and control.

We are entering an exciting period of change as our current 3–year strategy comes to an end and we begin to shape and develop our new one. We need to know that our finances are working for us, that we are legally compliant and forward looking with our reporting systems and processes.

This is where you come in. The Head of Finance is a key part of our management team, responsible for ensuring we continue to lead the sector to the best of our collective ability. We set the standard for our members and others to follow.
