Swale Academies Trust is seeking to appoint a Senior Finance Assistant to join our central finance team based in Sittingbourne, Kent. You will be a hardworking, friendly and organised individual, ideally with school finance experience and people management skills.
Key duties include supporting our finance assistants with training and workload prioritisation, managing the month-end process, maintaining ParentPay items, and dealing with queries from staff, suppliers, customers and parents.
This is a challenging but rewarding role, encompassing a range of duties working with multiple stakeholders both internal and external. The successful candidate will be a strong team player with excellent interpersonal skills, and someone who is able to prioritise both their own workload and that of others.
