Are you looking for the next step in your career, a new challenge and opportunity to widen the positive impact you have?

Following the successful promotion of our current School Business Manager to a Director of Finance and Operations role in another school, we are looking to appoint a full time and permanent School Business Manager as part of our Senior Leadership Team.
