Hours: Full time – 35 hours per week

The Role
As Finance Officer, you will play an essential part in the Cathedral’s daily operations.

You will quickly get involved in the finances for the trading subsidiary and then Chapter itself, along with ad hoc tasks from other members of the Team.
One of the key tasks is preparing information for the Finance Manager ahead of the management accounts and this creates an opportunity for you to develop your skills within the role. You will also work alongside non-finance professionals for certain projects offering further developmental opportunities.
As the Cathedral gears up for its celebratory year in 2025 you will have a chance to be fully involved in the marking of this significant anniversary.
About You
You will have experience of working in a similar finance role with an understanding of double entry bookkeeping and managing a payroll system.
You will be an advanced Excel user, including pivot tables and lookups and a proficient Office 365 user, including Teams, Outlook, and Word.
