**Grade UE06 - £32,982 - £38,205 per annum**

**College of Medicine & Veterinary Medicine - Molecular, Genetic & Population Health Sciences**

**Full time - 35 hours per week**

**Fixed term contract - 24 months
We are looking for an experienced Senior Finance Officer to join our Business Support team at the Institute of Genetics and Cancer for a two-year fixed term post. This is an exciting opportunity for anyone that is seeking to build on their budgeting and forecasting skills by supporting experts across a broad spectrum of scientific disciplines on a large and diverse portfolio of research projects.

This post is full-time (35 hours per week); however, we are open to considering part-time or flexible working patterns. We are also open to considering requests for hybrid working (on a non-contractual basis) that combines a mix of remote and regular on-campus working.

**The Opportunity**:
The Institute is currently structured around three research centres: Edinburgh Cancer Research Centre, Human Genetics Unit, and the Centre for Genomic & Experimental Medicine. Annual turnover is approximately £50 million and the Institute has around six hundred live research projects across all three centres. The postholder will have oversight of an extensive and diverse portfolio of research projects and general ledger (restricted and unrestricted) budgets.

You will work to a high degree of independence across all three research centres to deliver customer centric advice and guidance to Principal Investigators, Lab Managers and Undergraduate Students to achieve optimal use of resources whilst maximising cost recovery to the University. As a technical role that requires knowledge of accounting practices and funding guidelines, this post will play a pivotal part in establishing relationships with key stakeholders.

**Your skills and attributes for success**:

- Broad experience with accounting knowledge within a higher education or research environment;
- Ability to work simultaneously on numerous work streams and schedule tasks effectively in accordance with designated timescales;
- Exceptional data handling and Excel skills with evidenced ability to analyse and interpret financial data;
- Proven experience of working effectively in a team.

**As a valued member of our team you can expect**:

- A competitive salary of £32,982 to £38,205 per annum (Grade UE06)
- An exciting, positive, creative, challenging and rewarding place to work.
- To be part of a diverse and vibrant international community
- Comprehensive Staff Benefits, such as a generous holiday entitlement, a defined benefits pension scheme, staff discounts, family-friendly initiatives, and flexible work options. Check out the full list on our **staff benefits page **(opens in a new tab) and use our reward calculator to discover the total value of your pay and benefits

**Championing equality, diversity and inclusion**

The University of Edinburgh holds a Silver Athena SWAN award in recognition of our commitment to advance gender equality in higher education. We are members of the Race Equality Charter and we are also Stonewall Scotland Diversity Champions, actively promoting LGBT equality.

Prior to any employment commencing with the University you will be required to evidence your right to work in the UK. Further information is available on our **right to work webpages **(opens new browser tab).

On this occasion the University will not consider applicants requiring sponsorship for this role. International workers will therefore only be able to take up this role if they can demonstrate an alternative right to work in the UK.

**Key dates to note**

Interviews will be held on **21 May 2024 **.
