Looking to take the next step in your finance career?
Join New Collaborative Learning Trust (NCLT) as a Finance Officer and gain broad, hands-on experience across management accounts, month-end processes, reconciliations and financial reporting. You'll join a supportive finance team where you can build your technical knowledge, take on increasing responsibility and continue your professional development.
Working closely with the Finance Manager, you'll support financial activity across our secondary schools. Your work will include assisting with monthly management accounts, processing accruals, prepayments and journals, completing balance-sheet and bank reconciliations, maintaining cashflow forecasts and monitoring income and expenditure.
You'll also support supplier payment runs, invoicing, sales and trip reconciliations and other financial processes.
It's a varied role that offers considerably more than routine finance administration and provides an excellent opportunity to broaden your experience as your knowledge and confidence develop.
About you
You'll hold, or be working towards, a relevant finance qualification such as AAT Level 2, 3 or 4 and have experience of working with financial information, income, expenditure and budgets.
You'll be confident working accurately with numbers, able to analyse financial information and comfortable managing your own workload to meet month-end deadlines. Strong organisation, attention to detail and communication skills will also be important.
You don't need previous experience of working in education. We welcome applications from finance professionals in other sectors who can bring strong financial administration, analytical and organisational skills.
Experience of integrated accounting systems, supporting budget holders or knowledge of areas such as VAT and HMRC regulations would be advantageous.
You'll join a positive and supportive organisation with a strong commitment to staff development. Benefits include:
- funded professional development, including AAT qualifications
- opportunities to broaden your responsibilities and progress your finance career
- access to high-quality internal and external training
- cycle to work and technology schemes
New Collaborative Learning Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. If successful in being appointed to a post, you will be expected to apply for a disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Service as well as other employment checks before your appointment is confirmed.
