About our Client
Easthall Park Housing Association is looking for an ambitious and accomplished finance professional to join its Senior Management Team as Head of Finance & Corporate Services. This is an exciting opportunity to take on a broad and influential leadership role within a financially strong, community-based housing association with clear ambitions for its future.
Established in 1992, Easthall Park owns almost 700 homes across the Easthall and Kildermorie communities of Easterhouse. The Association has a proud history of regeneration and remains firmly rooted in the communities it serves, with its vision to make “Easthall Park – A Great Place to Live.” Today, the organisation is entering another important phase of its development.
With a refreshed strategic direction, an ambitious programme of investment in its homes and plans to further develop its in-house services, there is a genuine opportunity for the new Head of Finance & Corporate Services to help shape what comes next.
About the Role
Reporting directly to the Chief Executive and working alongside the Head of Housing and Head of Maintenance, you will be a key member of Easthall Park's Senior Management Team.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
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.
You will lead the organisation's finance function, providing the financial insight, planning and assurance required to support good decision-making and long-term sustainability. This will include responsibility for financial and business planning, budgeting, treasury management, audit, regulatory compliance and ensuring the Association continues to achieve strong financial management and best value.
You will work closely with colleagues across the organisation as Easthall Park delivers a significant investment programme across its homes and continues to explore new and innovative ways of delivering services.
The organisation is financially well positioned, but equally clear that its resources should be used effectively to invest in its homes, communities and services. That creates an interesting challenge for an incoming finance leader: providing robust financial stewardship while helping the organisation turn its ambitions into deliverable plans.
You will also oversee a small Finance & Corporate Services team and have responsibility for a range of corporate areas including governance support, ICT, insurance and associated organisational services.
You do not necessarily need to have led every aspect of corporate services before. For the right finance professional, there is an opportunity to broaden your experience, supported by an experienced Chief Executive and colleagues across the organisation.
Who are we looking for?
We are looking for someone with strong financial and management accounting experience who can combine technical credibility with the ability to contribute at a strategic level.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
- You may already be operating as a Head of Finance or in a similar senior position.
- Equally, you could be an ambitious Finance Manager, Deputy Head of Finance or experienced number two who is ready to take the next step into a broader leadership role.
- What matters is your ability to demonstrate sound financial judgement, strategic thinking and the confidence to provide constructive advice and challenge.
- You will bring experience of financial planning and budgeting, alongside a track record of delivering successful outcomes within a finance environment. Experience of working with a Board or voluntary Management Committee would be particularly valuable, as would exposure to housing or another regulated environment.
- You'll also need to be a strong communicator: someone who can engage effectively with colleagues, Committee members, auditors, lenders and regulators and translate financial information into clear, practical advice.
Easthall Park is looking for someone who can lead, motivate and develop others, but who is equally comfortable being part of a small, collaborative senior team.
If you are looking for an opportunity where you can make a visible contribution, broaden your leadership experience and help shape the next chapter of an ambitious community organisation, we would be delighted to hear from you.

Closing Date: Monday 14th September
