Our Client
Our client is a large, established organisation operating within the education sector, with a significant operational footprint and a centralised corporate support function.
The organisation provides finance, operational and strategic support across a broad network of locations. This creates a genuinely wide-ranging finance setting where you can work closely with senior stakeholders, influence decision-making and see the impact of your advice across the wider organisation.

About the Role
While the formal title sits within the accounting function, this is very much a Finance Business Partnering position rather than a traditional month-end focused accounting role.
Reporting into the finance leadership team, you will partner with a portfolio of operational stakeholders, providing financial advice across budgeting, staffing, financial performance, asset management and long-term planning.
A key part of the role will be analysing financial information, challenging assumptions and translating the numbers into practical recommendations for non-finance stakeholders.
