The Opportunity
Are you a versatile professional looking to make a tangible impact on the Sheffield education landscape? We are seeking an experienced School Business Manager to take the operational reins of a vibrant local primary school.

* HR & Admin: Overseeing the "front of house" team and ensuring HR compliance and payroll accuracy.
* Leadership: Sitting as a key member of the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) to help shape the school's future.
What You Bring to the Table
* Financial Fluency: You don’t just "do" numbers; you understand how to use them to drive school improvement.
* The "Sheffield Spirit": A down-to-earth, collaborative approach with excellent communication skills.
* Resilience: The ability to handle the fast-paced, often unpredictable nature of a primary school office.
* Urgency: You are ready to hit the ground running and integrate quickly into a new team.
Why Apply?
* Immediate Start: Skip the long notice period wait—we are ready for you now.
* Competitive Sheffield Salary: A solid £35k–£38k bracket with LGPS pension benefits.
* Community Impact: Play a pivotal role in a school that is the heartbeat of its local area.
* Autonomy: Manage your own workload and lead your departments with professional trust.
