Job description

Overview

Brooklands Museum is no ordinary museum – it is a living celebration of British innovation, ambition, and adventure. Located on the historic site of the world’s first purpose-built motor racing circuit, Brooklands is the birthplace of British motorsport and aviation, home to Concorde and countless other engineering breakthroughs.

As an independent charity since 1987, Brooklands Museum Trust Ltd is dedicated to conserving and interpreting this extraordinary legacy. Brooklands is a vibrant community where inventiveness, expertise, and competitiveness continue to thrive. Through its remarkable collection and immersive experiences, Brooklands inspires people of all ages to shape the future by connecting with the pioneering spirit of the past.

The Role

This is a pivotal leadership opportunity for a strategic and values-driven finance professional. As Finance Resources Director, you will play a central role in shaping Brooklands Museum’s future by driving financial performance, ensuring robust compliance, and enabling sustainable growth.

A key member of the Executive Leadership Team, you’ll also oversee HR, IT, and broader resource functions, helping to build a resilient, well-governed organisation that supports Brooklands’ mission to inspire, educate, and innovate.

You’ll work closely with the Chief Executive, Board of Trustees, and senior colleagues to:

  • Deliver optimised financial performance through effective planning, reporting, and resource allocation
  • Lead long-term financial planning, including capital development budgets and scenario modelling
  • Ensure full regulatory compliance across finance, HR, and statutory obligations
  • Oversee HR, IT, payroll, and procurement functions, ensuring robust systems and value-for-money outcomes
  • Build and lead high-performing teams, fostering collaboration and professional development
  • Support fundraising and business development through financial analysis and strategic insight
  • Deputise for the Chief Executive during planned absences when the Chief Operating Officer is unavailable

About You

We’re looking for a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, or CIPFA) with:

  • Proven experience in strategic financial leadership, ideally within a charity or cultural organisation
  • Strong analytical skills and the ability to translate financial data into actionable insight
  • A track record of leading teams and improving systems and controls
  • Excellent communication skills and the ability to engage stakeholders across all levels
  • High standards of professional integrity and a commitment to Brooklands’ charitable values
