The Vacancy
The Finance Coordinator will work within the Conflict Advisory Unit (CAU) on its Women, Peace, and Security Helpdesk (WPS) contract. The CAU provides high-quality advisory and technical support to a range of aid actors across the humanitarian, development and peacebuilding sectors, including donor institutions, UN agencies, international and national NGOs, civil society organisations, financial institutions and the private sector to integrate conflict and gender sensitivity principles and practices into their strategies, policies, and programmes. The CAU helpdesks for government departments and donor agencies, implements in-country conflict sensitivity facilities (currently in Afghanistan, South Sudan and Sudan), and undertakes bespoke conflict and gender sensitivity work. The WPS Helpdesk is a call-down service for the UK government that aims to improve the gender responsiveness of security and conflict work, and to advance the UK WPS National Action Plan. The position will also liaise closely with the Finance Team within Saferworld.
Reporting to the Project Manager- WPS, the Finance Coordinator will deliver efficient and compliant financial management support to the WPS helpdesk. As a call-down/on-demand service, the financial management of the helpdesk requires regular re-forecasting and close liaison within the implementing team, and with the counterparts in the UK Integrated Security Fund, which funds the helpdesk. The Finance Coordinator will have a key role in ensuring that the helpdesk consortium members’ financial allocations and record-keeping is up to date and correct. The Finance Coordinator will also make sure that the helpdesk is correctly accounted for within Saferworld’s finance system, and is fully compliant and also support all audit processes for the helpdesk.
