Breast Cancer Foundation (BCF)

If clean books, clean controls and no month-end drama sound oddly satisfying to you, keep reading.

At the Breast Cancer Foundation, finance is more than processing numbers. It is about stewardship, trust and making sure every dollar is handled with care in support of a meaningful mission.

We are looking for a Senior Executive, Finance who brings both technical discipline and steady character — someone who is reliable, thoughtful, values-led, and able to keep things accurate, compliant and moving.

You will support the Finance Manager in the day-to-day running of finance operations, reporting, controls and process improvements. Just as importantly, you will help build confidence across the organisation by being the kind of colleague who is dependable, respectful, clear-headed and calm under pressure.

I.                   What you’ll do

1.     Finance operations and stewardship

• Process donation receipts from multiple channels accurately and on time, with proper supporting records and reconciliation.
• Prepare invoices, vendor payments and reimbursements in accordance with approval workflows, documentation requirements and payment timelines.
• Monitor receivables and follow up professionally on outstanding amounts with the relevant teams.
• Maintain accurate and timely posting of transactions, and support the integrity of the general ledger and chart of accounts.
• Perform reconciliations for bank accounts, receivables, payables, accruals, prepayments and fixed assets.
• Support month-end and year-end closing activities, including the preparation of schedules and supporting documents.
• Assist with budget tracking, variance analysis and forecasting support.
• Support the safeguarding of BCF’s financial assets through proper controls, documentation and good finance discipline.
• Support finance and investment-related committee work by preparing schedules, papers and follow-up items as needed.

2.     Reporting, audit and compliance

• Prepare accurate and timely internal reports, management schedules and finance dashboards.
• Support statutory, regulatory, grant and funder reporting requirements.
• Assist with audit preparation, including reconciliations, schedules and supporting documentation.
• Support donor-related tax compliance processes, including the accurate issuance and tracking of tax-deductible receipts in line with applicable requirements.
• Ensure finance work is carried out in accordance with internal policies, SOPs, controls and relevant accounting and charity-sector requirements.
• Escalate discrepancies, risks or control gaps early, clearly and responsibly.

3.     Systems and process improvement

• Support the effective use of finance and donation systems to ensure accurate records, efficient workflows and reliable reporting.
• Maintain good documentation across finance processes, SOPs and working files.
• Identify opportunities to improve workflows, strengthen controls and reduce manual inefficiencies.
• Contribute to enhancements across systems and tools such as Xero, Stripe, Salesforce and other relevant platforms.
• Use digital tools responsibly, with care for data accuracy, confidentiality and governance.

4.     Cross-functional support

• Work closely with teams across Fundraising & Partnerships, Programmes & Services, Advocacy & Communications, and Corporate Functions to support smooth finance processes.
• Communicate early when timelines shift, information is incomplete or follow-up is needed.
• Build constructive working relationships with colleagues, auditors, vendors and external stakeholders.
• Contribute to a culture of professionalism, trust, teamwork and continuous improvement.

II.                What will make you a strong fit

You bring the technical basics

• Diploma or Degree in Accounting, Finance or a related field.
• Relevant experience in finance or accounting, ideally with exposure to month-end closing, reconciliations, reporting and internal controls.
• Experience supporting audits and compliance processes.
• Familiarity with accounting systems and operational tools such as Xero, Stripe, Salesforce and strong Excel skills.
• Experience in the non-profit, charity or social impact sector is a plus.

But just as important, you bring the right way of working

We are looking for someone who demonstrates the following qualities in practice:

Integrity
You do the right thing even when no one is watching. You handle funds, records and sensitive information carefully, and you do not cut corners.

Accountability
You take ownership of your work, keep commitments, close loops and flag issues early instead of letting them grow legs.

Collaboration
You work well across teams, share information clearly and understand that finance is here to enable good decisions, not create mystery.

Empathy
You know that accuracy and kindness can co-exist. You communicate professionally, especially when dealing with donors, colleagues or sensitive matters.

Mutual Respect
You listen, stay calm under pressure, and deal with issues directly and respectfully.

Innovation
You are not allergic to better ways of working. You look for practical improvements in processes, systems and reporting, and you use digital tools responsibly.

You’ll likely enjoy this role if you are someone who…

• likes order, accuracy and clear documentation
• can follow a control without becoming robotic
• can follow up firmly without making enemies
• spots gaps early and raises them with evidence, not drama
• values confidentiality and professional judgement
• believes good finance work should be both rigorous and useful

III.              Why join BCF

• At BCF, your work supports a mission that matters. You will be part of a team that values empathy, integrity, mutual respect, collaboration, innovation and accountability — not just as posters on a wall, but in how we work every day.
• If you are a finance professional who wants to combine discipline with purpose, we’d love to hear from you.

Breast Cancer Foundation (BCF)

If you can build partnerships without sounding transactional, turn impact into compelling support, and grow donor trust without becoming a walking sponsorship deck — we should talk.

At BCF, fundraising is not just about bringing in dollars. It is about building belief, designing meaningful supporter journeys, and creating long-term partnerships that help advance early detection and support the breast cancer community in Singapore.

We are looking for an Assistant Director, Fundraising & Partnerships to lead a major fundraising and partnerships workstream end-to-end. This role is for someone who can think strategically, write persuasively, build trusted relationships, and keep momentum moving without creating chaos. You will work closely with the CEO, sub-committees and internal teams to grow sustainable income, deepen corporate and community partnerships, and strengthen supporter stewardship in a way that is ethical, disciplined and deeply human.

What you will do

1) Lead fundraising and partnerships growth

• Develop and drive an integrated fundraising and partnerships strategy aligned with BCF’s mission, annual priorities and long-term sustainability goals.
• Build and manage a diversified pipeline across corporate partnerships, major gifts, individual donors, grants and foundations, campaigns, events and community fundraising.
• Identify, qualify and pursue new opportunities that strengthen income, reach and long-term strategic value.
• Re-engage past donors and historic partners through structured stewardship and thoughtful relationship-building.
• Work closely with the CEO and relevant sub-committees to shape prospect strategy, cultivation plans, asks and conversion.

2) Design stronger donor and partner journeys

• Build meaningful end-to-end journeys that move supporters from awareness to participation, advocacy, giving and long-term stewardship.
• Improve donor and partner experiences by identifying barriers, motivations, drop-off points and opportunities to deepen engagement.
• Develop segmented engagement approaches for different supporter groups, including corporates, foundations, community partners, high-value donors and campaign participants.
• Treat fundraising channels and partnership pathways as experiences that can be designed, tested, measured and improved — not just administered.

3) Build strategic relationships that last

• Cultivate long-term relationships with corporate partners, foundations, community organisations, philanthropic supporters and ecosystem collaborators.
• Lead pitches, presentations, meetings and external engagements with professionalism, credibility and warmth.
• Develop partnership opportunities that support fundraising, awareness, advocacy and programme impact.
• Represent BCF at networking events, community platforms and stakeholder engagements.
• Manage partner expectations clearly, including deliverables, timelines, approvals, reporting and stewardship commitments.

4) Shape compelling proposals, campaigns and stories

• Lead the development of proposals, sponsorship decks, grant applications, donor materials and case-for-support content.
• Work closely with Advocacy & Communications to strengthen campaign narratives, fundraising messaging and supporter-facing content.
• Translate impact, programme outcomes and strategic priorities into clear, credible and engaging stories that inspire support.
• Ensure all fundraising communications are mission-aligned, evidence-based and ethically framed.

5) Drive disciplined cross-functional delivery

• Work closely with Advocacy & Communications, Programmes & Services, Finance and Operations to align plans, roles, timelines, dependencies and definitions of success early.
• Ensure fundraising initiatives have clear owners, milestones, risks, follow-through actions and reporting rhythm.
• Surface issues, trade-offs and support needed early, rather than relying on heroic last-minute recovery.
• Help connect fundraising, programme delivery and communications so BCF shows up as One BCF, not separate departments with separate stories.

6) Strengthen governance, systems and reporting

• Ensure fundraising and partnership activities are carried out in line with BCF policies, governance requirements and relevant regulatory obligations.
• Maintain strong donor administration discipline, including accurate donation records, stewardship tracking and timely documentation.
• Monitor fundraising income, pipeline health, donor engagement and partnership outcomes, and provide clear reporting and recommendations.
• Prepare structured updates and dashboards for senior leadership and relevant sub-committees, including issues, evidence, options and recommended next steps.
• Strengthen the use of CRM, donor data and reporting tools to improve pipeline management, stewardship and decision-making.
• Improve SOPs, templates and workflows so the function becomes more scalable, efficient and less dependent on memory, heroics and crossed fingers.

7) Lead and develop the team

• Lead, coach and support team members with clear expectations, priorities and rhythms.
• Foster a culture of shared ownership, respectful communication and reliable follow-through.
• Build team capability in fundraising writing, partner management, stewardship, reporting and systems use.
• Promote a positive, collaborative and high-performing culture that reflects BCF’s values in practice.

What we are looking for

• Degree in Business, Communications, Marketing, Social Sciences or a related field, or equivalent relevant experience.
• Typically 6–12 years of relevant experience in fundraising, partnerships, philanthropy, stakeholder engagement, business development, account management or a related field.
• Strong track record in growing partnerships, sponsorships, donor support, grants or revenue-generating collaborations.
• Experience developing proposals, sponsorship decks, grant applications or strategic pitches.
• Strong stakeholder engagement and relationship-building capability across internal and external groups.
• Experience managing a major workstream or team, with clear ownership, planning and follow-through.
• Comfortable using CRM systems, fundraising dashboards and data to manage pipeline health and improve decisions.
• Experience working with senior leadership, boards, committees or equivalent governance groups is an advantage.
• Charity, non-profit or social impact experience is helpful, but strong transferable experience is welcome too.

The kind of person who will thrive here

At BCF, we hire for more than competence. We hire for character, judgement and how you work with others.

You lead with integrity

You fundraise ethically, communicate honestly, and report impact truthfully. You do not over-promise for a quick win or hide inconvenient facts in small print.

You bring accountability

You define owners, timelines and outcomes clearly. You follow through, close loops and raise issues early with context and options.

You work collaboratively

You co-design early, align stakeholders before execution, and share risks and dependencies openly. You know that strong fundraising is a team sport.

You show empathy

You understand that donors, survivors, partners and colleagues are people, not transactions. You communicate with care, gratitude and professionalism.

You practise mutual respect

You listen well, stay calm under pressure and deal with issues directly and respectfully. You can disagree without becoming disagreeable.

You bring innovation with judgement

You look for better ways to engage supporters, improve systems and sharpen results. You test, learn and improve — without being reckless with trust, brand or governance.

Why join BCF

This is a chance to do work that is both commercially sharp and deeply meaningful.

You will help shape how BCF earns trust, grows support and builds partnerships for the long term. You will work with a team that is strengthening its culture around empathy, integrity, mutual respect, collaboration, innovation and accountability — not as slogans, but as everyday expectations.

If you are energised by purpose, strategy, strong writing, relationship-building and disciplined execution, this role may fit you very well.
