Coventry Rape and Sexual Abuse Centre • Temporary • Coventry, West Midlands, England, United Kingdom • £17.62k - £22.03k / year • 1d ago

Coventry Rape and Sexual Abuse Centre (CRASAC) is a specialist sexual violence charity that delivers trauma-informed support to survivors. The organisation describes a compassionate, inclusive culture, with a team that is dedicated, supportive, and united by a shared commitment to empowering survivors and creating lasting change. This Finance Officer role matters because it helps keep that support running properly: the invoices paid, the payroll accurate, the records in order and the small but essential systems working as they should. What you'll be doing You’ll handle the day-to-day financial administration of CRASAC and provide payroll, HR administration and compliance support across the organisation. In practice, that includes: - Managing purchase ledger, sales ledger and banking - Processing invoices, supplier payments and income receipts - Reconciling bank accounts, petty cash and other balance sheet accounts - Monitoring outstanding income and carrying out credit control where needed - Preparing monthly financial reports, reconciliations and supporting schedules - Supporting budget monitoring, forecasting and cashflow administration - Assisting with year-end accounts and external audit requirements - Supporting financial information and reports for funders, managers and trustees - Running monthly payroll in Sage Payroll - Processing starters, leavers, contractual changes and payroll adjustments - Maintaining payroll records and employee data - Liaising with HMRC, pension providers and other payroll contacts - Keeping HR records up to date in BreatheHR - Preparing contracts, offer letters and employment documents - Supporting recruitment, onboarding, induction and compliance records Who we're looking for We are looking for someone who can work accurately, keep clear records and take ownership of core processes without needing constant oversight. This is an office-based role near Coventry City Centre, and you’ll be working on premises for 20–25 hours per week in a fixed-term contract of up to 14 months, including handover periods at the start and end. You should be comfortable using Microsoft Office, My Funding Online, Sage Payroll and BreatheHR, or able to get up to speed quickly. The work spans finance, payroll and HR administration, so being able to move between tasks and keep calm around deadlines will matter. We’ve been clear that you do not need to meet 100% of the criteria; what matters is a willingness and ability to learn quickly, work accurately and contribute positively to our mission. Powered by Recruit Rocket A rare bit of honesty: this is the kind of role where a missed detail can ripple further than you’d like, so steady attention really does matter.
