We are looking to recruit an outstanding candidate to the post of Finance and Business Manager to work in our hub in Leybourne and manage KHNES's finance systems across our 6 hub county wide educational provision, providing business related support. The successful candidate will report to, and work closely with, the Executive Head teacher to maintain the financial stability of this crucial KCC service. 

Along with all service finance aspects, the post holder will also lead the development of health and safety plans within the service and manage facilities and the service's site management staff. 

FMS experience is essential and experience of line management of staff is highly desirable. A level of experience of H&S systems would also be a distinct advantage. 

This role would ideally suit a creative finance professional with experience of educational systems and payroll processes. Although an experienced finance/business manager would thrive in this role, this post would also be a Launchpad for a creative and energetic finance officer in an educational setting that is looking for a challenge and to test their capacity alongside an experienced Executive Head teacher, and gain valuable experience. We are prepared to offer a competitive salary (to be finalised at interview) and a high degree of support (including from SFS professionals). Key attributes of the person that we are looking for are attention to detail, the ability to work to deadlines, under pressure at times and creatively when required.

This is a term time only contract plus two weeks to be worked in term holidays to coincide with month end dates in July and August and year end in April. The working hours are Monday to Friday 8 am to 4 pm equating to 37 hours per week.

Kent Range 8-10 (pro rata), dependent upon experience.
