* A strategic thinker who can partner with a dynamic Executive Team and challenge constructively at board level
* Strong leadership skills, including experience developing high-performing finance teams and driving improvement
* Someone comfortable operating across all levels from hands-on finance tasks to boardroom leadership
* It is not vital that you have experience in Education finance; however, you should be eager to learn and adapt to the sector's challenges.
