Job Description
About UK & Ireland 2028 Limited

UK & Ireland 2028 Limited is the local organising committee responsible for planning and delivering UEFA EURO 2028 across the UK & Ireland.  We work on behalf of the five Football Associations and in close partnership with governments, host cities, stadiums and communities to ensure the tournament is delivered to world-class standards.

About UEFA EURO 2028

The UEFA European Championship is one of the world’s biggest sporting events. In 2028, it will take place across the UK & Ireland, bringing significant operational scale and requiring close coordination between host cities, stadiums, government partners and UEFA.

The Role

The Safety & Security programme is one of the most complex and high-risk areas of tournament delivery. As Finance Manager (Security), you will play a critical role in ensuring robust financial planning, modelling, control and reporting underpin the successful delivery of this function.

Reporting into the Head of Finance and working closely with the Director of Safety & Security, you will provide expert financial support, insight and challenge across budgeting, forecasting, modelling and governance. This is a highly visible role, requiring confidence working with non-financial stakeholders in a fast-moving and evolving environment.

If you enjoy translating complex financial data into clear, practical insight — and want to apply your expertise to a once-in-a-generation event — this role offers both challenge and impact!

What we’re looking for:

We are looking for a qualified finance professional who combines strong technical capability with the confidence to work closely with operational leaders.

You will bring:

A recognised professional accountancy qualification.
Statutory accounting experience (industry or audit background).
Experience of budgeting, forecasting and financial reporting in complex environments.
Strong financial modelling skills and the ability to work with large, complex data sets.
The ability to explain financial information clearly to non-finance colleagues.
Confidence working independently, prioritising workload and exercising sound judgement.
Experience of working in major events, safety and security environments, or with public-sector funding is helpful but not essential. Transferable experience from other complex, regulated or operationally intensive sectors is welcomed.
