Change Mental Health is a leading national mental health charity providing unique support to people with severe and enduring mental ill health.

With over 50 years' experience across Scotland, we believe people affected by poor mental health and illness deserve the highest quality of support in the community and that every person has the right to be valued and to share in the opportunities, challenges, and joys of everyday life.

As a charity supporting over 10,000 people per year, with an income of circa £6 million and around 200 members of staff, we are changing society by changing attitudes, fighting stigma, providing transformative support and influencing government to ensure a better quality of life for those affected by poor mental health.

You will be a visible leader, attending Board meetings and providing the financial insight necessary to drive strategic decision-making and long-term planning. You will manage our audit and ensure our statutory compliance. You will ensure we have robust financial controls in place and most importantly, use your skills and experience to deliver the greatest possible impact for every pound raised and spent.
