Romford, United Kingdom London Borough of Havering Full time

**Job Description
Grade 9- £48,867- £52,929pa**

Education Finance prides itself on providing high quality financial support in Havering and beyond. The management of resources is a key area for schools and we place great emphasis on effective financial management. We enjoy excellent working relationships with our schools and academies and consistently score highly in customer satisfaction surveys.

This role is varied and encompasses working with a wide range of stakeholders including senior Council officers, head teachers, school finance staff and governors, to oversee budget management, budget setting, monitoring and long term planning. It is crucial at this time that we work with schools that are in deficit to agree and implement recovery plans. This will involve a variety of meetings (some in school settings) as well as provision of ongoing advice and guidance as delivery of recovery plans is monitored.

This is a pivotal role, working alongside an existing Principal Finance Officer to lead a small team in transactional, operational and strategic matters relating to financial management in education.

This position is demanding and satisfying with a need to adhere to national and local statutory regulations and to uphold a high level of probity in line with regulations.

You will be joining a well-established, enthusiastic and professional team, and will be well supported. You will be working principally remotely, and would be required to travel to schools and work in council offices as required.

The interview dates are to be confirmed once the advert closes.
