Midsomer Norton Schools Partnership is seeking a skilled and motivated Management Accountant to join our central finance team. Reporting to the Head of Finance, you’ll support schools across the Trust by producing accurate budgets, forecasts and management accounts, while advising on financial decisions and ensuring compliance with statutory and Trust policies.
This is a key Business Partnering role involving close work with Headteachers, budget holders and senior leaders. You’ll help manage financial systems, support internal audits, lead on procurement and contracts and contribute to statutory reporting such as VAT returns and financial planning.

You also have access to an employee benefits platform which offers savings on everyday essentials to special offers on travel, dining, and entertainment.
We encourage early applications as we reserve the right to close the vacancy prior to the closing date if we receive sufficient applications for the role.
Midsomer Norton Schools Partnership is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We particularly welcome applications from under represented groups including ethnicity, gender, transgender, age, disability, sexual orientation or religion.
