Do you want to be a key member of a team committed to making life changing differences for young teen girls in Kenya who fall pregnant through sexual abuse? We seek a CFO to manage our charity’s finances as part of a committed team.
We are an established small UK charitable company with an annual turnover of about £100K, run by a team of 7 director trustees based in locations around the UK and Kenya. We operate within a Christian ethos and are organised to work remotely, usually meeting monthly via video conferencing. Computer skills are essential.
A hand over period with our retiring CFO will be available. As a small team we require the CFO to be a trustee and as we deal with vulnerable girls, the Charity Commission requires a DBS check of criminal records.
The role is to:-
All our information is managed via Excel spreadsheets. We use Google Workspace services, particularly as a repository of all our information.
We are starting the 2nd phase of a 4 phase capital project for the next three years to develop a community complex with an estimated total cost of £760K which will double our current capacity and provide long term benefits.
Volunteers are expect to have the following skills and attributes:-
Your input will be pivotal to the operation of our charity, enabling it to meet its aims of providing hope to very young girls, traumatised by sexual abuse and frightened by the stigma of their pregnancy, anxious from being removed (by social services) from their community and becoming a new parent. With our support in a family style environment which shows compassion and love as well as providing their medical care, education and vocational training, you will be part of the transformation of these young lives, whose emotional traumas are healed and their potential is realised.
In addition, our community development project is aimed at providing a lasting legacy that continues these benefits for future generations over the next 50+ years.
Your will share with every trustee on our team, the heart-warming satisfaction and encouragement from the positive impact that our work has on our girls and their children, which comes from providing Christian values of inclusive love through providing a stable family environment that meets the physical, mental and spiritual needs of our desperate girls.
