FINANCE AND OFFICE MANAGER - BEIRUT OFFICE (1421)
For
over 50 years, we’ve been campaigning for human rights wherever
justice, freedom and truth are denied. We’ve reshaped policies,
challenged governments and taken corporations to task. In doing so,
we’ve changed thousands of lives for the better. Join Amnesty at our
expanding Beirut regional office and you will too.
ABOUT THE ROLE
ABOUT THE ROLE
Taking control of all things finance for our Beirut regional office,
you’ll play a key part in developing the International Secretariat’s
presence in the region. Implementing our global policies and putting in
place local processes and systems will be instrumental to our initial
and ongoing operational success. As you would expect, you will be
monitoring budgets, regularly reporting to local and international
management and ensuring we meet all the relevant statutory and
regulatory requirements.
As
well as finance, you’ll have responsibility for facilities management,
legal compliance, IT and a range of HR functions. This will include
securing visas for international staff, commissioning training and
ensuring HR best practice. You will be technologically-savvy, and able
to maintain IT systems with the back-up of our global hub in London.
You will also lead and develop two direct reports - a Finance and Office
Assistant and the Administrative Assistant to the Regional Director,
growing their abilities as you build a solid base for us to effect
meaningful human rights change.
ABOUT YOU
A qualified accountant and experienced office manager, you’ll be an
expert when it comes to preparing and monitoring budgets and overseeing
the smooth day-to-day management of an office. More than being
methodical, organized and flexible, you’ll be confident in your ability
to get an international office up and running, thanks to a history of
putting in place and managing financial, administrative, HR, IT and
legal systems. You’ll also be well-versed in HR, customer focused and
fluent in English and French, with a conversational level of Arabic.
Indeed, you’ll already have local contact networks in tax, immigration
and with service contractors, along with a knowledge of local contract
law.
