We are seeking a dedicated and organised Finance Officer to join our Finance Team. As the Finance Officer, working closely with the PCC Treasurer, you will play a pivotal role in overseeing the day-to-day management of the parish accounts and payroll. Our aim is for the Finance Officer to relieve the administrative burden, currently shouldered by the Treasurer, and to enable the role-specific tasks to be completed more.

You will be expected to provide operational excellence in line with best practices and agreed protocols, ensuring seamless administrative support; promote a positive work culture that encourages growth and development.

You will also contribute to the wider work of the Staff Team, helping to provide first contact and initial support to enquirers and signposting, appropriate to others in the team.

If you possess strong organisational skills and exceptional attention to detail, we invite you to apply for this exciting opportunity.

This is a new role and as such may be subject to change as new workflows emerge and develop over time.

We also have a vacancy for a Church Administrator (21 hours) – we would be open to one person applying for both positions (to create a combined role of 24.5 hours). More information on this role can be found on our website at www.sjb-burscough.church/vacancies/
