Finance, Bids and Grant Manager

The Centre for Financial Crime and Security Studies (CFCS) at RUSI is a research programme with a dedicated focus on the intersection of finance and security. The programme has an annual budget of £1.6 million spread across a number of grants of varying size and tenor.

As the programme has expanded, it has become necessary to appoint a dedicated Finance, Bids and Grants Manager (FBGM).

The FBGM will support the CFCS team across all relevant programme activities. The postholder will work closely with RUSI’s finance team and members of the bids and contracts team.

The FBGM will take a leading role in grant management, financial reporting, financial planning, and other finance-related matters across the team’s portfolio of projects between London and Brussels.

Whilst helpful for understanding the mission of the CFCS team, the successful candidate will not be required to demonstrate an interest in financial crime and illicit finance; nor does the successful candidate need to be a qualified accountant.
