Sevenoaks School is seeking a dynamic and forward-thinking financial leader to shape and enable the strategic development of the school. Reporting to the Bursar and working closely with the Head, Governors and senior leaders across the school, the role requires a clear strategic thinker with an approachable and collaborative style and proven financial and management expertise. You will have both the professional and interpersonal skills necessary to lead and inspire a ten-strong Finance team, engage effectively with senior managers and governors, and work in partnership with the Bursar to ensure the school is optimally positioned to continue investing in its staff, campus and educational provision for the future.
Experience within the charity or education sector is not essential but the successful candidate will have an empathy for the context and be able to apply their skills and experience effectively to lead a sizeable finance function within a leading independent school.
This is a full-time, all-year role based primarily on campus with some flexibility to work from home in line with the school’s flexible working policy. The school offers a competitive salary and benefits package, including generous fee remission for eligible children.
Please see the attached job pack. Applications will be assessed and suitable candidates invited to interview on a rolling basis. The school reserves the right to appoint at any time and we therefore encourage interested candidates to apply as soon as possible.
