Job Description
Assistant Director of Finance

Terch and Associates Consulting, on behalf of Churches United in Ministry (Chum), is seeking a nonprofit accountant to serve as the Assistant Director of Finance.

About the Organization

Chum is a charity founded to provide local help to the members of our community who need it the most and is governed by 40 Duluth area faith-based congregations. Chum works to provide emergency shelter and medical attention to the unhoused, to provide food to the hungry, to address social issues through outreach and advocacy, and to provide long-term housing solutions to those affected by our housing shortage.

Chum helps over 8,000 people per year: a number equal to about 10% of the population of Duluth. Among other properties, Chum operates the Chum Drop-In Emergency Shelter, the Chum Clinic, two food shelves, the Steve O'Neil and St. Francis Apartment buildings, and has plans for large development and capital investment projects in the near future.

Outside of its properties, Chum provides street outreach to those who cannot or will not enter shelter to help them meet their basic needs, overcome barriers, and stabilize their housing to reduce the need for law enforcement intervention. Finally, Chum's advocacy is aimed at making stays in its emergency shelter short and non-reoccurring by engaging with statewide partners and lawmakers to achieve support services and permanently affordable housing for all in need.

To achieve this noble mission, Chum receives funding from its member congregations; charitable individuals in our region; foundations and other grantors; and the local, state, and federal government. Because of the wide variety of funding, and the diverse ways through which Chum supports its neighbors, it takes a consummate accounting professional to ensure it all runs smoothly.

About the Role

The Assistant Director of Finance is an accounting role which learns from and supports the Director of Finance to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and succession planning. The Assistant Director of Finance also shares responsibility in every accounting and financial duty, including:

  • Assist in budgeting and planning across the organization to ensure the financial health of Chum; provide regular budget updates throughout the fiscal year to ensure the proper tracking of budget to actuals.
  • Manage the fund accounting of grants, including analyzing rate of expense and providing reports to the Board and funders; develop and maintain systems of documentation in partnership with operations to ensure proper grant reporting.
  • Oversee company-wide payroll.
  • Maintain the general ledger, enter transactions and develop reports.
  • Assist the leadership team with financial analysis; attend board meetings and provide managerial reports to leadership team.
  • Coordinate external auditors for periodic required audits; in partnership with the Finance Director, act as a contact point for auditors while onsite, providing access and information as required.
  • Initiate the Form 990 processes and filing the form in coordination with the Finance Director and Executive Director
Requirements

To fill this role, we're seeking an accountant with some exposure to those duties in a nonprofit environment and a desire to advance their career. There are some differences between nonprofit and for-profit accounting and so applicants from a for-profit environment should be prepared for substantial learning opportunities.

The ideal candidate will:
  • Have a four-year degree in accounting and three years of experience OR have seven years of accounting experience.
  • Have experience with grant reporting to both government and non-profit grantors.
  • Have familiarity with Great Plains software.
  • Be involved in a local faith-based congregation of any religion or denomination.

To Apply

Please submit a resume, cover letter, and three professional references anywhere this position is shared or on the careers page of www.terchandassociates.com.
