Our client is a highly successful and dynamic hybrid organisation, fusing business operation and charitable work. It is both a for-profit and a not-for-profit enterprise which is steeped in history and social responsibility. We have been retained to recruit the business an Interim transformational CFO on a 12 months FTC starting in December. This role is a pivotal, strategic position that will shape the future of the finance structure as well as the legal entities around which the organisation is separated. The successful candidate will demonstrate 8 plus years in CFO positions within a growing, commercially focused business and be able to demonstrate oversight of Finance, Legal, Audit and Compliance as well as act as company secretary to the board of Trustees. You will be a qualified accountant and know what good looks like but at the same time be a philanthropic and outgoing leader who does not fit the stereotypical mold. You will be able to look at finance from a strategic point of view, whilst being able to rely on a 20 strong team to produce the numbers on time and accurately on a monthly and quarterly basis. Essential to this role will be experience in Finance within a charitable organisation (SORP/FRS102), in addition to for-profit businesses potentially in the retail space, for example. You will be a transformation expert, seeing change as something that is needed at all times to constantly improve how things are done. As such, your day one challenges will be the outsourcing of the businesses legal affairs as well as implementation of a new finance system whilst overhauling procurement and the digitalisation of reporting and the use of ai to enable better budget and forecasting. This is not a position for the faint hearted, but is also an exciting challenge for someone who perhaps feels that they are not making a difference in their current organisation. Every member of the board are inspirational in their role and accomplished players in the commercial sector before joining this hybrid organisation where charity meets business, and so much social enterprise is delivered in the wider community. So why join this business? You will be joining a team of like-minded philanthropists who can genuinely make a difference whilst running a profitable enterprise which delivers on its strategic plan year after year and supports hundreds of community ventures and projects that would not prosper without its existence. The successful applicant must be ego free and want to work in a high performing and diverse environment where gender and background are ignored in favour of energy, excellence and growth. This role is offered on a fully remote basis but with a requirement for the successful CFO to travel nationally approx 1 week per month in total but largely during a working day and not overnight. It can offer a 4 day working week but stresses the need to deliver a 5 day a week delivery and will pay as if it was 5. It can offer a 12 months FTC with holiday, pension and benefits and a unique opportunity to initiate change in a challenging and dynamic environment. Competition for the opportunity will be fierce, we are seeking an accomplished finance leader and not someone to grow into this role, but at the same time this person will be mid-career and be ambitious to develop into a broader CFO remit where more and more of the CEO's role is delivered by this individual. Compensation for this position will be discussed with the applicants but will be around £130k annum plus benefits (for the right applicant the salary can be paid for a 4 day week). For a confidential chat about your cv and your suitability for the role, please apply.

Summary This is a unique opportunity to join one of the oldest charities in the UK in a flexible, part time general managerial capacity, supporting the Trustees. The ideal candidate will have a professional qualification in accounting, property or the law and is comfortable working with professional advisers across all these disciplines. The appointment of this senior role arises by the retirement of the current incumbent, and the role offers a competitive rate which will depend on qualifications and experience. Background The King Henry VIII Endowed Trust, founded in 1545, holds a portfolio of c. £80m in Equities, Bonds, Land and Commercial Property, part of the Total Return from which (£2.5m in 2025) is distributed in Warwick in accordance with its Charity Commission Scheme, as follows: 50% Anglican churches in Warwick and Budbrooke 30% Warwick Schools Foundation - means tested bursaries and community activities 20% as grants for the benefit of the inhabitants of Warwick The Trust has up to 12 trustees (4 nominated, 8 co-opted), who meet quarterly. At present, there is a Clerk & Receiver (role being renamed to COO), a deputy Clerk (who deals mainly with grants and organising meetings) and an accountant all part-time and self-employed. The current Clerk is retiring and is a Chartered Accountant who has held the role for 16 years, during which time the Trust has gone through a period of change. The Trust is now in a stable stage, where the priorities are managing our financial, land and property assets in order to maintain our distribution. The role is being renamed to Chief Operating Officer to better reflect the role, and would ideally remain a self-employed role. The typical work load is likely to require about 10-15 hours per week, which fluctuates and is focused around the quarterly meeting and annual accounts. There is potential for 2 areas of land to be included in the local plan which will create additional opportunities. Role specifics Financial Investments Liaise with the investment managers (Currently: CCLA, Navera, Savills, Royal London) Manage any short-term deposits with HSBC Property Liaise with property advisers (Margetts and Cushman & Wakefield) to manage the Trust s property (currently an office block, a pub, a shooting range and 3 blocks of farm land) Oversee St Mary s Rectory. This is owned by the Trust and is provided free of charge to the incumbent at St Mary s, through an agreement with the Coventry Diocese. Ensure any property sales or leases operate within charity law. Where land is in the Local Plan, work with advisers and/or promoters to obtain the best commercial deal. Charity Commission Manage any changes required to the Trust s Charity Commission Schemes and Orders. Ensure that the Trust operates within the limitations of these Schemes and Orders. Annual Returns Manage information on Charity Commission website Beneficiaries Quarterly distributions calculation and payment Liaise with beneficiaries as necessary Prepare reports for Trustees as required (e.g. Annual Grants Report, which will include analysis of other Warwick endowed charities and Annual review of Church accounts) General Deal with all correspondence Keep Trustees up to date Liaise with professional advisers Manage the overall office activity Organise meetings including reports for meeting and minutes Maintain website Maintain records Skill set & Experience The role requires someone with experience of dealing with financial, legal and property issues. Coupled with good administration skills, the role requires someone who: Is self-reliant and used to working under their own management Is competent in Microsoft Office Has good written communication skills Has good interpersonal skills, to work with Trustees, other staff, advisers and beneficiaries. Experience in the following would be beneficial, but a candidate who is keen to learn would quickly pick these up: Charities, including dealing with the Charity Commission Knowledge of Warwick and its historical heritage The successful candidate is likely to have a professional qualification in accounting, property or the law and is comfortable working with professional advisers across all these disciplines. The Trust s office is currently based on the top floor of Margetts (the Trust s agricultural advisers), where all its records are kept. Some home working would be practical. The role has some flexibility in hours, but there will be certain times, such as Trustee meetings that are fixed. A candidate who is able to be available for some time each day would be beneficial, as often matters need to be progressed without too much delay. Applicants should apply in writing enclosing their CV and accompanying letter to either: Chair, The King Henry VIII Endowed Trust, 12 High Street, Warwick, CV34 4AP, or by Charity Jobs online application process.
