UCLH Finance Manager Opportunity
UCLH is looking for an enthusiastic finance manager to join the friendly and collaborative Strategic Finance team. The role is being advertised on a fixed term contract for 7 months to cover a gap in the team up to year-end due to long-term absence.
About the Role
The Strategic Finance team oversees a complex capital programme spending between £70m to £100m each year. The programme includes strategic projects (like our new Dementia Research Institute and Neonatal Expansion), innovative transformational projects (like Power Purchase Agreements and Digital Diagnostics) and our Trust-wide replace and refresh programme.
This is a great development opportunity for an experienced NHS finance manager who is looking to develop broader experience by managing capital spend. It would be helpful if you had prior experience of the PFR (external reporting) and capital accounting – but we can support you to develop this if you do not.
Key Responsibilities
- Responsible for our monthly reporting on the capital programme, running well established processes to produce reports and develop actionable insight for decision makers.
- Your reports must be accurate as well as insightful as they will be used both internally (such as for our Senior Directors Team and Capital Investment Board) and externally (NHS-E).
- As well as running month end processes, you will also produce and maintain a full year forecast – a key performance indicator for the capital programme.

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Requirements
- Available to start work with us as soon as possible, ideally immediately, and no later than 4 weeks from the interview date.
- Available to work most days during our busiest period (January and February 2027).
- Very well organised and a good communicator (both verbally and written).
- Skilled at pulling together and analysing complex financial information, drawing out the narrative clearly with good judgement on what the impact will be.
