ExtraCare Charitable Trust are looking for a Finance Transformation and Systems Manager

Lead the future of finance. Drive transformation. Create lasting impact.

We are seeking an exceptional Finance Transformation and Systems Manager (Fixed Term Contract) to lead a transformational journey that will redefine how finance supports our organisation’s ambitions. This is a unique opportunity for a qualified accountant with proven experience in the social housing sector to take ownership of a high-profile programme of change, delivering a modern, insight-driven finance function fit for the future.

At the heart of this role is the opportunity to shape and deliver a new finance operating model — leading the selection and implementation of a new finance system, streamlining processes, strengthening controls, and unlocking better financial insight to support strategic decision-making. You will work in close partnership with senior leaders across the organisation to build a resilient, agile, and forward-thinking finance environment that meets the evolving expectations of a large, registered provider.

Combining technical expertise, strategic vision, and change leadership, you will play a critical role in enhancing financial capability, improving operational effectiveness, and ensuring the organisation is positioned for continued success in an increasingly complex regulatory landscape.

This is a career-defining opportunity for a finance transformation professional who wants to make a tangible difference, influence organisational change, and leave a lasting legacy.

Why join us?

ExtraCare is committed to continuous learning, inclusion, and career development, fostering a culture where diversity is celebrated and everyone feels they belong. Our Investors in People Gold accreditation reflects our strong values, supportive culture, and commitment to ongoing improvement.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

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.
