Job Description

Social Investment Scotland (SIS) is a social investment finance intermediary (SIFI) operating across Scotland and beyond. Our mission is ‘to connect capital with communities, to make a real, measurable and sustainable impact upon peoples’ lives.’

This connection happens in two ways. We help social enterprises and mission driven businesses access the finance and support they need to support delivery of their own missions; and we support a growing community of social investors- looking for both a financial and a social return on their investment- access opportunities.

As the scale and profile of our activity grows in line with our ambitious strategy, SIS has a significant role to play in building capacity and resilience in the social enterprise sector to deliver impact at scale. To do this, we are investing in our own capacity to ensure we can deliver on this vision.

The Finance Assistant is a valued role within the SIS team. As part of a small finance team, the job holder will play an active part in the effective and efficient running of the financial operations of the organisation. The job holder will be responsible for processing sales and purchase ledger transactions, accounts reconciliations and analysis, closing month-end, and assisting in the preparation of the management accountant for group companies.

The role holder will be a part-qualified accountant or an experienced book-keeper and is expected to play an active part in supporting the preparation and analysis of financial information for the SIS Group.

This is an exciting opportunity to work within an exciting and leading organisation, playing a part in the next phase of our growth.
