We’ve placed over 300 accountants with 130 partners in 28 countries – old and young, management accountant, forensic accountant, auditor, chartered accountant or financial accountant; your skills are relevant and needed.

Grassroots organisations such as health clinics, street child centres and schools hugely benefit from financial coaching and support: the improvement in financial management allows them to continue their good work, to reach out more in their communities and secure a long term future.

Assignments typically focus on areas such as:

• Conducting a Financial Health Assessment/Internal Audit
• Coaching and developing the accounting skills of local charity staff
• Assisting with the preparation and analysis of financial plans and budgets
• International donor relations reporting
• Implementation of robust and sustainable financial controls and procedures
