Describe a typical day. This charity generates income from fees, service level agreements and grants. It's like running three businesses in terms of finance reporting so the duties are very varied and could include calculations for payroll, entering data, chasing up bounced cheques, conducting audits on our branches, processing monitoring information for grants or research purposes and anything in between.
