Reporting directly to the Chief Executive, you will provide a full financial management accounting service for this well-established charity organisation.

Experienced in all aspects of SME organisation finances, you will be well versed in monthly accounts preparation, providing timely information and delivering tight financial control over operations.

This post would suit a seasoned professional looking to utilise their skills within a charity framework or an individual with experience in organisation finances, who is looking for a career move up to manage the full function.

Ideally you will have:

• An accounting qualification, however experience is of equal value.
• Experience of all accounting functions within a SME or charity/similar organisation purchase matching, BACS payroll, monthly accounts preparation, petty cash management etc.
• Experience of meeting accounting deadlines and setting priorities for yourself and others
• Experience of using SAGE/IRIS/Quickbooks or similar accounting package and Microsoft Excel spreadsheets

SWA are committed to quality assurance programmes throughout all of their activities and have been recognised as such by external awards including the National Quality Service Standards from Welsh Women’s Aid and the Disability Confident Award.

As in any organisation prudent financial management is key to success, but it can be argued that it is even more important in a charity context. This is an opportunity to join a professional team utilising your experience to make a real difference to Swansea Women’s Aid and to the lives of women and children in Swansea experiencing VAWDASV.

SWA value diversity and are committed to promoting equality. They encourage applications from women from all backgrounds and communities – Black, Asian, LGTBQ+ or other ethnic minority backgrounds and people with a disability.

SWA particularly welcome applications from Welsh speaking candidates.

Cymorth I Fenywod Abertawe - Swyddog Cyllid

Cyflog blynyddol: £37,973

Mae'r swydd hon yn barhaol

Lleoliad: Swyddfa Abertawe, gyda threfniant gweithio hybrid gan gynnwys gweithio o gartref

Mae'r swydd hon yn barhaol

Gan adrodd yn uniongyrchol i'r Prif Weithredwr, byddwch yn darparu gwasanaeth cyfrifyddu rheolaeth
ariannol cynhwysfawr ar gyfer ein sefydliad elusennol sefydledig.

Bydd gennych brofiad o bob agwedd ar reolaeth ariannol sefydliadau bach a chanolig (SME), gan gynnwys paratoi cyfrifon misol,
darparu gwybodaeth ariannol amserol, a sicrhau rheolaeth ariannol gadarn dros weithrediadau.

Byddai'r swydd hon yn addas i weithiwr proffesiynol profiadol sy'n dymuno defnyddio ei sgiliau o fewn y sector elusennol, neu unigolyn sydd â phrofiad ym maes cyllid sefydliadol ac sy'n chwilio am gam ymlaen yn ei yrfa i reoli'r swyddogaeth gyllid gyfan.

Yn ddelfrydol, bydd gennych:

• Cymhwyster cyfrifyddu, er bod profiad perthnasol yr un mor werthfawr.
• Profiad o bob swyddogaeth gyfrifyddu o fewn sefydliad bach a chanolig neu elusen/sefydliad tebyg, megis paru anfonebau prynu, cyflogres BACS, paratoi cyfrifon misol, rheoli arian mân ac ati.
• Profiad o gyrraedd terfynau amser cyfrifyddu a gosod blaenoriaethau i chi eich hun ac i eraill.
• Profiad o ddefnyddio SAGE, IRIS, QuickBooks neu becyn cyfrifyddu tebyg, ynghyd â thaenlenni Microsoft Excel.
• Profiad o baratoi gwybodaeth ariannol reoli ac adrodd yn ystyrlon ar amrywiadau ariannol i'r Prif Weithredwr a Bwrdd yr Ymddiriedolwyr.
• Sgiliau cyfathrebu cryf, ar lafar ac yn ysgrifenedig.
• Y gallu i weithio'n annibynnol, blaenoriaethu llwyth gwaith a datrys problemau ar eich liwt eich hun.
• Dealltwriaeth gadarn o egwyddorion cyfrinachedd a diogelu data.
• Y gallu i ymrwymo i nodau, egwyddorion a pholisïau Cymorth fenywod Abertawe, a gweithio yn unol â hwy.

Mae Cymorth Menywod Abertawe wedi bod yn darparu gwasanaethau deinamig ac arloesol ers dros 50 mlynedd i fenywod a phlant sy'n profi trais yn erbyn menywod, cam-drin domestig a thrais rhywiol (VAWDASV) yn Abertawe. Rydyn wedi ymrwymo i raglenni sicrhau ansawdd ar draws pob agwedd o'n gwaith, ac mae ein safonau wedi'u cydnabod drwy wobrau allanol, gan gynnwys Safonau
Ansawdd Cenedlaethol Gwasanaethau Cymorth Cymorth i Ferched Cymru a'r wobr Disability Confident.

Fel mewn unrhyw sefydliad, mae rheolaeth ariannol ddoeth yn allweddol i lwyddiant, ond gellir dadlau ei bod hyd yn oed yn bwysicach yng nghyd-destun elusen. Mae hwn yn gyfle i ymuno â'n tîm proffesiynol a defnyddio eich profiad i wneud gwahaniaeth gwirioneddol i Cymorth Menywod Abertawe ac i fywydau menywod a phlant yn Abertawe sy'n profi VAWDASV.

Mae SWA yn gwerthfawrogi amrywiaeth ac wedi ymrwymo i hyrwyddo cydraddoldeb. Rydyn yn annog ceisiadau gan fenywod o bob cefndir a chymuned, gan gynnwys menywod Du, Asiaidd, LGBTQ+, menywod o gefndiroedd lleiafrifoedd ethnig eraill, a menywod anabl.

Rydyn yn croesawu'n arbennig geisiadau gan ymgeiswyr sy'n siarad Cymraeg

Yn unol ag Atodlen 9, Rhan 1 o Ddeddf Cydraddoldeb 2010, mae hon yn swydd i fenywod yn unig.
