School Business Manager

My client is a secondary school based in Woodford, East London, looking to recruit a School Business Manager on an initial interim basis.

The role sits on the senior leadership team and will be responsible for managing the schools finance, HR, facilities and other administration needs and is supported by a wider central Trust team.

This is a crucial role, carrying responsibility for the overall leadership and management of the administrative function, to include finance, human resources, premises and health and safety. Working closely with the wider operational support team, you will help ensure that the Head and SLT have all they need from a non-teaching capacity, to continue to deliver the first-class education that the school is proud of. Budget management, financial reporting, procurement and compliance will be key areas, but you’ll enjoy the hands-on nature that getting involved with wider support functions can offer. 

This position is an integral part of the leadership team and essential to the running of the school.  This is an exciting opportunity to become part of a successful team in a role which continues to develop and grow. The role is wide and varied and therefore requires an individual who can embrace the complexity of the role. There is a long term, permanent requirement with this position too.

Candidates with School Business Management experience are urged to apply, with any relevant SBM qualifications adding to your application.
