Detail

We are looking for a committed and experienced Financial Controller to join our vibrant school community at Arnold House.

You will work principally at the Loudoun Road site, and report to the Director of Finance & Resources within the Finance & Resources team.

We seek a candidate with an accountancy qualification who has excellent attention to detail, an analytical mind with management accounting experience and a desire to work in an education setting.

The successful candidate is required to work throughout the calendar and academic year to support the school’s delivery of education.

The school has significant responsibilities to the Charity Commission and a yearly statutory audit. The Financial Controller will support the Director of Finance & Resources in fulfilling these responsibilities.

We have recently introduced i-finance accountancy package, and experience of working with this would be beneficial.

Staff at Arnold House are paid according to the School’s own competitive salary scale, both in recognition of the higher cost of living in London and of the fact that staff ‘go the extra mile’ in a school such as ours. Staff are appraised regularly and are encouraged to reflect on and develop their practice.
