About us:

There has never been a more exciting time to join the HEY Smile Foundation team. Our work spans across the Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise Sector (VCSE), as well as connecting opportunities with the private and public sector.

We are the go-to charity, joining assets to community knowledge, creativity, and inspiration. We are helping VCSE organisations of all shapes and sizes be heard and play a part in solutions, not just highlight community problems.

Smile is going through some exciting changes, we have recently appointed our new CEO, they have big plans, and we are looking to expand our wider management team to make sure those plans happen.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who is ambitious and creative to seek new opportunities and build relationships. You will be joining the senior management team to support with the day-to-day business of the HEY Smile Foundation with a particular focus on finance.

Your role will be varied, you will be responsible for leading and supporting on our day-to-day business, managing a team to ensure that Smile runs smoothly and efficiently.  We want you to challenge the norm and look for ways we can improve. Working alongside heads of department we want your support to implement a focused strategy so we can make the most impact. You will be a good team player, have the ability to build relationships and efficiently manage and prioritise your time.

You will have a strong financial background; Smile undertakes a large and vast amount of work and this shows through our busy financial arrangements. You will be able to oversee the day-to-day cashflow of the charity and produce monthly reports to the senior leadership team.

You will report directly to our CEO and sit alongside our Heads of Department in the senior management team.

If we receive a large number of applications, we reserve the right to close the job advertisement early.
