The Finance team is responsible for maintaining the integrity of APC’s finances. It does this by ensuring that the team has the appropriate tools and systems, by ensuring that income and expenditure are recorded in line with budgets and secured funding, and by adhering to the organisation’s financial policies and procedures. Together with the executive and operations directors, the finance team ensures that APC complies with its financial and statutory responsibilities, including the output of independently audited financial statements (based on internationally agreed accounting principles), both annually and as required for specific grant agreements. The finance team submits reports and statutory forms regularly to the board of directors and management, donor partners, and various state and federal departments.
