Ashford, Kent, United Kingdom Folkestonegirls Full time

Our vision at Folkestone Girls is to provide exceptional financial services that support the growth and development of our schools. As a Financial Manager, you will play a critical role in achieving this vision by promoting expedient and professional financial practices while ensuring adherence to TKAT policies and guidance.

You will work closely with the Business Manager to facilitate accurate financial records, manage day-to-day operations, and support Finance Officers in delivering core financial functions: Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable & Credit Control. This involves working with the payroll & HR teams to ensure overtime and expenses payments are correctly processed.

In addition to these responsibilities, you will be responsible for budget reporting, month-end reporting, balance sheet reconciliations, and reviewing budget vs actual spend for each school. Your close attention to detail and analytical skills will be invaluable in ensuring the accuracy and reliability of our financial data.

This role requires a flexible approach to working, with a normal working pattern of 3 days a week from home, 1 day a week from your closest school, and travel to other Weald schools 1 day a week. Additional travel may be required occasionally as determined by business needs.

We offer an excellent salary package for this position, with an estimated annual salary of £45,000-£60,000 based on location and experience. In addition to a competitive salary, we also offer a range of benefits, including coaching and mentoring from experienced leaders, a comprehensive induction programme, and opportunities for career development and growth.

If you have a working knowledge of accounting and bookkeeping procedures, excellent analytical skills, and a flexible approach to working, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity. You will be well supported in your role, working alongside a committed team who share the same vision of achieving more together.
