Role Summary
The Senior Finance Officer role in IT Services reports to the IT Finance and Procurement Manager and provides reporting, tracking and the analysis of financial information to assist with day-to-day financial management and strategic decision making in IT Services. This role also provides consistent support and guidance to IT Services staff needing to raise purchase orders for a wide variety of IT and digital resources regardless of value, technology or platform.
This role works with the University's Finance and Procurement teams and has close working relationships with operational managers and budget holders within IT Services and with the ITS Supplier Relationship Management team.

- Organise work independently, but ensure the inputs required for the University's financial year are met, including governance and business planning cycles, though advice and support will be available from the line manager for this role and from colleagues in Finance.
- Carry out activities in IT Services to support the University's financial cycle and the IT Finance and Procurement Manager including updating trackers, journaling, quarterly forecasting, annual budgeting, month end, year end activities and Five Year Plan activities.
Person Specification
- Educated to Degree level (or equivalent qualifications) plus relevant practical experience in a finance and/or purchasing role, preferably in the public sector. Where no equivalent qualification is held significant practical relevant experience and expertise will be required.
- Experience of working in a large and complex organisation.
- Excellent IT skills with experience in specific areas such as reporting and complex data sets.
- Numerate with experience of using finance software and with strong MS Excel skills - at an intermediate level as a minimum with an enthusiasm to develop skills further.
- Ability to organise and prioritise own workload and work to deadlines.
