School Business Manager

EduExec Recruitment is working with a welcoming, community-focused school in South London to recruit a School Business Manager. The role manages the day to day business side of the school, whilst looking to enhance it's commercial partnerships with the wider community. 

The School Business Manager will be a key member of the senior leadership team, working closely with the Headteacher and governors. 

The role will cover:

• Financial planning, budget management, monitoring and reporting to governors
• HR, including safer recruitment, workforce planning and employment matters
• Health and safety, premises management, procurement and statutory compliance
• Data protection, policies and wider operational oversight of the school
• Developing and managing commercial opportunities, including lettings and income generation
• Building and maintaining relationships with parents, local businesses and community groups

Applicantions are sought from School Business Managers who are as comfortable talking to a local business or a group of parents as they are presenting to governors. You will have a solid grounding in school finance, HR and premises management and the commercial awareness to assess opportunites. Experience of lettings, income generation or managing a significant facility will help, but the right outlook matters more than a particular background. This is a genuine opportunity to shape how the school develops in the future and how it is seen by its community.
