Finance Director (Trustee)

The Finance Director (Trustee) at Behçet’s Patients Centres (BPC) is a voluntary Board role supporting the smooth, steady running of a small but impactful charity helping people living with Behçet’s Disease.

Giving around 2–3 days a month, you’ll look after our finances — preparing budgets, overseeing payroll and HMRC payments, invoicing the NHS, and guiding us through year‑end accounts and filings with the Charity Commission and Companies House. You’ll have plenty of autonomy and play a key part in helping us deliver our NHS‑funded services through to 2028. You’ll work closely with fellow Directors (Trustees), our Operational Lead, and our partners at Behçet’s UK, including taking part in their annual conference.

This is a chance to use your financial skills to support a rare‑disease community, strengthen our governance, and help shape the future of a charity that makes a real difference across England.
