Unlike many organisations we do not lack information or opportunities, but we do need to provide more and better financial support for the organisation to translate these into actions.

The role offers a unique opportunity for you to use strategic financial management skills to impact the organisation. Because it will have an impact, the role is demanding and offers you a chance to hone skills that will be essential when you yourself join a Board as a CFO; a journey which you will be supported on.
