My client is a South East London based school, looking to recruit an experienced School Business Manager to lead the support staff.

This role holds responsibility for managing the overall business functions of the school, including financial management, health and safety, human resources, compliance and administration. You will advise on and implement the day-to-day support that enables the school to operate effectively and efficiently, and that allows other members of the leadership team to focus on teaching and learning.

In detail the role will involve:
  • Managing the small Finance and HR support team of four
  • Overseeing financial management, health and safety, HR, compliance and administration
  • Managing school budget and ensuring it is balanced, realistic and represents good use of funds
  • Complying with financial reporting requirements and submitting statutory returns
  • Heading procurement process, managing tenders and negotiating costs with suppliers
  • Involvement with ad hoc school projects, to include a future building plan

You will play a crucial strategic role as a member of the Senior Leadership Team, driving the school's ambition and vision. There is plenty of opportunity to refine and evaluate processes and procedures to improve the support function.  You will report directly to the Headteacher and quickly establish yourself as a key member of the school leadership team. Previous school business management experience is essential.
