The Prague Civil Society Centre is a non-profit organisation that supports and empowers civil society and independent media in Eastern Europe, the Caucasus, and Central Asia. Designed to operate in the harshest of conditions, we do everything we can to support those working towards more open, free, and democratic futures – no matter how far away that may seem today. We believe that a vibrant civil society and independent media are key to this. We work to ensure that activists, journalists, and changemakers of all kinds, many of whom work under the most repressive regimes, get the support they need to push for change, be it grants, capacity building, or connections.

Core competencies:
- A minimum of three years of experience in a relevant field (finance management or audit)

- A proactive and solution-oriented mindset; ability to work independently and prioritise tasks
- Proficiency in English (spoken and written)
- Strong computer skills, particularly in MS Word and Excel
- A team player mindset, eager to support colleagues and the organisation’s mission

- Annual contribution of up to CZK 10,000 for coaching, mentoring, or other wellbeing practices
- Fully covered phone tariff (including unlimited data, messaging, and calls)
- In the absence of work commitments that require office presence, the possibility to work from home on Wednesdays
- Fully paid sick days
