Our partner is a Ugandan NGO working to safeguard and provide for vulnerable children and their families living in urban slums. They provide support through education, health and livelihood initiatives.

They start their engagement at an early age, running a nursery school for ages 3-5. Once the children begin primary school they stay involved with the children’s welfare, health and education, providing a child sponsorship scheme. They also provide specialist assistance and education to children with disabilities.

On this assignment your role will be to conduct an internal review of their existing accounting systems, policies and controls, making and starting to implement recommendations for best practise.

They are currently using two systems, Tally in Uganda and QuickBooks in the UK (for fundraising purposes), which has become complicated to maintain. You will be helping to identify one system which includes both the Ugandan and UK entities to continue with, preferably with online access for international transactions.
