London (3 days a week)

Heritage lives in places and people, memories and stories, artefacts and traditions. It can connect us all to the past, and to each other. It can make us happier, strengthen every community, and help shape society for the better. Everybody should be able to enjoy the benefits it brings.

That’s why, as a charity, English Heritage care for over a million objects and hundreds of historic sites in every part of England, from international icons to local treasures, covering 6,000 years of English history. And it’s why they open them up, share their stories and find new ways for everybody to engage with our shared history.

With over 100 staffed locations and a further 300 properties nationwide, English Heritage operates at significant scale, balancing its charitable purpose with ~£155m commercial income derived from admissions, membership, retail, food and beverage, and online sales. 

As part of their continued evolution, they are seeking a new Chief Financial Officer. 

Reporting to the CEO, the CFO will have strategic influence across finance, technology, procurement, and major capital projects, and will shape the entire investment model. This role demands a commercially minded leader, from any sector, with experience of multi-site operations; organisations with complex, distributed estates; and diverse income streams.

As an organisation that is committed to working in an equitable, diverse and inclusive environment English Heritage encourage applications from all backgrounds.
