An exciting opportunity has arisen for a strong candidate to join us in the position of Finance Manager. This is a key role within the Trust’s Central Services team, and whilst the successful applicant will be accountable to the Chief Finance Officer, they are also afforded the excellent opportunity to lead a supportive finance team.

You will drive the provision of an effective and customer focused finance service, working in partnership with school leaders to ensure the effective management of the schools’ finances, assuring compliance with relevant regulations and contributing to the long-term financial planning, that supports the Trust’s vision.

The ideal candidate will be an organised, detail-orientated individual with experience of managing budgets, financial functions and financial analysis and reports. You might currently work within a financial management or supervisory role or be a School Business Manager with budgetary responsibility.

We value our staff and ensure that they are well supported and trained. We have a continual professional development offer with training and opportunities for all staff at all levels.

Our family of schools work closely together and the schools are well supported by the Trust Central team.

The role allows for hybrid working between home and the central team’s office. However, the successful candidate will be required to travel to all trust schools as required.

This role provides you with an opportunity to join our family to improve outcomes for children. If you believe you have the required skills and attributes for this role, we’d love to hear from you!

The role offers excellent opportunities for professional and personal development. It also offers the potential for great flexibility, where the exact hours and working pattern can be tailored to the needs of the successful candidate.

We also offer:

• • 26 days holiday, plus bank holidays (increasing after 5 years’ service)
  • ‘Trinitas Time’ – one additional day off each year to use as you please as part of our Trust wide wellbeing offer
  • A range of benefits including employee assistance programme
  • Access to the local government pension scheme
  • Supportive working environment
