    Default job background
    Description

    Camden Learning is pleased to be exclusively partnering with Robertson Bell in our search for a new Head of Finance & Operations to join our team on a permanent basis. Camden Learning is a pioneering school-led, place-based partnership. A joint enterprise, launched by Camden schools and Camden Council in 2017, we are a unique organisation founded on the principle that there is far more we can achieve together than by acting alone.

    This is a key role working closely with the Senior Leadership Team as a business partner, providing critical support as part of the decision-making processes including strategic and tactical planning, importantly providing an impartial conscience acting with integrity. The postholder will ensure good stewardship and planning of finance, strong governance, effective management of staffing resources and excellent IT systems.

    The organisation:

    All schools in Camden have chosen to be involved and every school is a member of the company, as is Camden Council. As members, schools own the company and have delegated powers to the Camden Learning Board of Directors to run it on their behalf. We are very proud that our model has been genuinely co-constructed.

    The support Camden Learning provides to schools is wide and varied. We are commissioned by Camden Council to deliver services such as school improvement and, in addition, we offer a variety of other targeted improvement, development and support services – both on a commission and point-of-need basis.

    Key duties of this Head of Finance & Operations role are as follows:

    • Drive all things financial planning, including efficient and effective financial control, clear and timely financial reporting, and compliance.
    • Work with the CEO and Board to ensure financial planning for future sustainability and with effective understanding and management of risk.
    • Ensure best value from Camden Learning spending and ensuring effective commissioning and use of contracted services across the organisation.
    • Hold oversight of all income streams to ensure they are robustly managed and accounted for.
    • Liaise with auditors and relevant bodies.
    • Ensure strong organisational governance so that the Board can meet all its statutory duties and responsibilities.
    • Monitor the effectiveness of staffing arrangements and systems for accounting for staff time, leave arrangements and sickness absence.
    • Ensure that Camden Learning pursues best practice as an employer which values equality and diversity.
    • Support staff across the organisation to achieve their objectives but ensuring that there are training and development opportunities on offer.
    • Ensure efficient and effective IT systems including the development and use of Finance Systems and the CRM.

    The successful candidate will have:

    • A Recognised Accounting Qualification.
    • Senior level experience of financial planning and accounting, preferably, but not essentially, in both public sector and not for profit settings.
    • Experience of both annual and medium-term financial planning and review.
    • Understanding of clear systems, policies and processes that underpin effective human resource management.
    • Knowledge and skills to be able to train staff in adopting and embedding efficient and effective financial and HR systems and procedures.
    • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, including experience of presenting at board level and strong written communication skills.
    • Experience of producing written plans and strategic documents.
    • Unwavering commitment to equality and diversity and experience of championing these in a work environment.

    Please note that this role will be officially based out of our offices in Kings Cross, with flexible opportunities to also work remotely and from home.

    The closing date for applications is on Sunday 21st January, with first stage interviews due to take place on Friday 2nd February 2024. Applications will be under continuous review before the closing date, so please submit your CV to our exclusive search agent Robertson Bell ASAP to avoid disappointment
