We are partnering with a well established education group who are looking for a Finance Manager to join their team.
This one's a bit different.
The business is actively investing in AI and automation to cut out manual work in finance, things like invoice processing and reporting.
So if you're someone who's always looking for a smarter way to do things, not just the way it's always been done, you'll probably enjoy this.
You'll sit as 2IC to the Financial Controller, with 3 direct reports and positive exposure to senior leadership across the group.
