Our Finance Officer will support with high-quality operational finance processing across Twynham School and The Grange School (known collectively as ‘Twynham TGS’), within the Twynham Learning Multi Academy Trust. This role will deliver transactional processing and reporting across multiple business areas to a high standard. This is an opportunity to work within a dynamic, fast-paced environment with a team of friendly, supportive, professional Finance experts.

Twynham School is a very special place with an excellent reputation both locally and nationally. We are a heavily over-subscribed school where achievement is exceptionally high, students are well-behaved and eager to learn and relationships are very special.

- Management of bank accounts and petty cash, including posting ledger transactions and reconciling regularly
- Posting of all transactions onto accounting ledger
- Month end reconciliations of control accounts
- Process all ordering, in line with MAT policies
- Preparation of supplier payments
- Taking bookings of school facilities
- Preparation of all lettings and other sale ledger invoicing
- Setting up and monitoring payments through Arbor (our management information system) for extra-curricular activities
- Promote and safeguard the welfare of children and young people in accordance with our Safeguarding and Child Protection policies.

**What we can offer you**
- Automatic membership of the Dorset Local Government Pension Scheme
- Free, confidential access to our Employee Assistance Programme, which offers a range of counselling services plus financial, legal and practical support from qualified professionals on a range of personal issues and access to online health and wellbeing resources
- A trust-wide intranet, where we share our news, information and resources
- Local discounts negotiated on behalf of our staff e.g. gym memberships, hair and beauty salons, chiropractic care, cycle shops, restaurants, motoring services, and retail/DIY stores
- Access to national discounts on a wide variety of huge brands
- A welcoming staff room with complimentary tea and coffee available throughout the day
- Free on-site parking
- The opportunity to work within Twynham Learning; a progressive multi-academy trust
- The opportunity to work in one of the most beautiful areas of the South Coast

**Who we are looking for**

We would love to hear from you if you:

- are a self-starter who can use their initiative
- have the ability to drive change to make processes more robust and/or efficient
- have excellent interpersonal skills and gravitas to interact with trust and school leaders on a regular basis
- can travel independently between trust sites

You will also be keen to live our Twynham Learning employee values which are:

- Aim high
- Keep improving
- Don’t leave anyone behind
- See the bigger picture
