Summary

This role is a new role in school which has come about due to the resignation of our former SBM and the subsequent restructure within our administration teams, this sees us separating finance and HR into a distinct role.

The role is offered on a permanent basis, and we will consider full time or part time (4 days per week) - please indicate your preference when applying. If full time the successful role holder will also undertake some Governance support work (reviewing and updating policies in consultation with members of the Senior Leadership Team). The role is all year round.

The role will evolve over time; however its primary function will be:

- To set and manage the School Budget, whilst maintaining sufficient reserves
- Monitor DfE changes to understand changes in future funding rates and impact on spending plans
- Complete the monthly reconciliations(HR and Financial)
- Provide timely reports to SLT and Governors regarding finance
- Authorise invoices in line with LCC policies
- Support Cost Centre Managers in managing their budgets
- Undertake the weekly Catering Income reconciliation
- Undertaking HR administration (absence reporting; contract changes; HR queries)

Ideally we are looking for a person who is already experienced in school finance in the maintained sector, including use of FMS, and who has an ability to take on additional responsibilities and to deputise for the SBM as required.

You will find Alder Grange to be a great place to work: despite being constantly busy we enjoy each other’s company and always seek to be a warm, friendly, and welcoming team. Well-Being of pupils and staff is our number one objective. If you are unsure about the details around the role or have any questions then please feel free to get in touch with Paul Seery (School Business Manager)
