It's a business where people genuinely enjoy working together, celebrate success and support one another. The Opportunity This isn't a role where everything is already perfectly polished. ROC is looking for someone who enjoys getting stuck in. Someone who asks questions, challenges the status quo and wants to leave things better than they found them. As Financial Controller, you'll become a key member of the Executive Leadership Team, leading an experienced finance team while providing the commercial insight that helps shape the future of the organisation. Working closely with leaders across children's residential services, disability support, family services, supported accommodation, ROC Solid and the wider group, you'll play a key role in ensuring financial decisions support the people who matter most.

There will be challenges. That's the reality of joining a growing organisation. But if you enjoy bringing structure to complexity, improving processes and becoming a trusted adviser to senior leaders, you'll find this role incredibly rewarding. About You You're already a Financial Controller or an experienced Finance Manager looking for a role where you can genuinely make an impact. You'll bring: - Strong management accounts, budgeting and cash flow experience. - Experience leading and developing finance teams. - A track record of improving processes and financial controls. - The confidence to build relationships across a business. - Excellent communication skills and a collaborative approach. Experience within social care, charities, housing or another purpose-led organisation would be advantageous, but isn't essential. Qualified, part-qualified and qualified-by-experience candidates are all encouraged to apply. More importantly, you're someone who wants more than another finance role. You want your work to matter. If you're looking for an opportunity where your expertise will influence strategic decisions, strengthen a growing organisation and help create brighter futures for children and young people, we'd love to hear from you.
