School Business Resource Lead (Permanent)
Salary: £53,000 - £60,000 (DOE)
Location: Sheffield
Start: ASAP
Organisation: Academy Trust

We're supporting an Academy Trust in South Yorkshire that's looking for a School Business Resource Lead to oversee operational performance across a small cluster of schools. This senior role focuses on guiding three School Business Managers and ensuring strong, consistent standards across finance, HR, premises and compliance.

You'll work closely with Headteachers and the central trust team, offering a mix of leadership, challenge and practical support. It's well suited to someone who's already operated at a multi-site level or stepped beyond the day-to-day running of a single school.

Key responsibilities:

Leading, coaching and performance-managing three School Business Managers.

Reviewing operational processes across the cluster and improving consistency.

Overseeing HR compliance, safer recruitment and onboarding quality.

Monitoring Health & Safety practices and coordinating contractor activity.

Supporting budget monitoring, forecasting and financial queries.

Attending SLT meetings when needed and acting as the link to the central team.

Leading trust-wide operational projects and procurement exercises.

Ensuring effective use of systems such as PSF, Bromcom, SIMS and CPOMS.

Providing short-term hands-on support to schools when required.

What we're looking for:

Experience as a School Business Manager or Cluster/Operations Lead within a MAT.

Proven people-management skills across multiple sites.

Strong organisational judgement and a clear grasp of compliance.

Confident communication and the ability to influence senior stakeholders.

A proactive, steady approach and someone who can get up to speed quickly.

If you're available now or on a short notice period, feel free to get in touch and I'll talk you through the next steps.
