Interim School Business Manager

4 weeks ago


Richmond Upon Thames, United Kingdom Farrer Barnes Limited Full time
My client is part of a larger multi academy trust, now looking to recruit a School Business Manager on a long-term interim basis.

This is a significant post within the school, which carries with it responsibility for the non-teaching side, managing the day-to-day finance, administration, premises and HR requirements. Supported by a central team within the Trust and with the onsite assistance of a small support team, you'll work closely with the Headteacher to ensure the best use of resources and ensure the school obligations are met.

Responsibilities will include:
  • Oversee the financial management of the school, including budget planning, monitoring, and reporting.
  • Manage all aspects of the school's administrative and support functions, ensuring smooth operations on a day-to-day basis.
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date financial records, ensuring compliance with relevant policies and regulations.
  • Lead and manage a team of administrative staff, providing guidance and support as required.
  • Develop and implement efficient administrative systems and processes to enhance the effectiveness of the school's operations.
  • Work closely with the leadership team to contribute to the strategic planning and decision-making processes.
  • Collaborate with external stakeholders, including suppliers, contractors, and local authorities, to ensure effective procurement and contract management.
  • Oversee the management of the school's premises and facilities.
Applications are sought from individuals who have previous experience working within a similar school business manager role, that would appreciate the support of a central team in a wider Trust, whilst still retaining day to day autonomy. The role is expected to run until the end of the 24/25 academic year. Hybrid working opportunities would be available with this role, with additional flexibility over school holiday periods.
