Role Responsibility

Active Kent & Medway is one of 42 Active Partnerships in England. We are hosted by Kent County Council and funded by Sport England to tackle inactivity, which is driven by inequalities. We believe in the power of getting ‘more people, more active, more often’ for physical and mental health, as well as individual, social, community and economic development.
We are looking for a new member of the team to support Active Kent & Medway’s financial and operational functions, ensuring robust financial stewardship, effective resource management, and operational excellence. The role will be to provide efficient and accurate financial processes, HR administration, and operational systems within a publicly funded, not-for-profit environment, ensuring effective use of resources and a positive employee experience.
This role supports the strategic and day-to-day delivery of the organisation’s mission by ensuring compliance, sustainability, and efficiency across all support services.
