We are dedicated to protecting everyone we encounter from all forms of harm, abuse, neglect, and exploitation, in accordance with Irish equality legislation. All employees are expected to adhere to SVP's Dignity & Respect and Safeguarding policies, including those pertaining to children and vulnerable adults. The founder of the Society, Blessed Frederick Ozanam, was a devout Christian and his legacy of spirituality remains a key element of the make-up of every Conference within the Society. It is normal practice within the Society that prayers are said at the beginning and end of Conference meetings or at other meetings where members are in attendance as this underpins the ethos of the Society.

Purpose of the Role The Regional Management Accountant plays a critical role within SVP Ireland’s Regional Council by safeguarding financial integrity, ensuring robust accounting practices, and promoting operational efficiency. Reporting to the Regional Coordinator, this qualified professional is responsible for a broad range of financial duties, from supporting Conference Treasurers and managing the Regional Office’s bookkeeping to overseeing financial management tasks across the wider Region. This includes providing expert guidance and oversight to ensure that all financial transactions, records, reports, and controls meet best practice standards, comply with SVP policies, and adhere to all relevant regulations. The role demands a hands-on approach, with accountability for maintaining accuracy, transparency, and strong internal controls while working closely with the Finance team in National Office.
