The Department of Medicine is seeking to appoint a highly motivated Accounts Manager to join its busy finance team.
The post-holder will be responsible for 2-3 direct reports and will manage a varied range of financial activities across the whole Department.

Research is the major focus of the Department; however, we are also heavily involved in clinical student education and run successful MPhil and PhD programmes.

This is a varied and interesting new appointment, which will appeal to anyone seeking a career in University financial management.
The role is based on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus, and the successful candidate will adopt the Department's hybrid working model.
This post is offered on a fixed-term basis in the first instance, covering a secondment to 30th September 2026, with the potential for a longer-term extension after this date.
