About Head of Finance

As a key member of the Senior Leadership Team, the Head of Finance will take responsibility for day-to-day financial management, monthly management accounts, financial reporting, and strategic financial support to Huddersfield Town Foundation staff and its Board of Trustees. The role also includes taking responsibility for completion of financial returns to statutory bodies and funding partners and for driving good governance across the Foundation through review of policies, risk documentation and working practices.

We're looking for a strategic thinker and inclusive leader — someone with senior finance experience, ideally within the charity sector — who can promote a culture of strong financial control and attention to detail and will inspire our teams, drive innovation, and embed our Terrier Spirit values in everything we do.

This role reflects our commitment to growth and impact. With a team of 26 staff and a turnover of £1.2m, the Foundation is entering a new chapter. The Board has ambitious plans, and we need resilient, imaginative, and values-led leaders to help us deliver on our mission to empower OUR TOWN to thrive.
