The appointee will be carrying out a mixture of day-to-day financial tasks using SIMS FMS, working under the direction of the Finance Officer, as well as administrative tasks, under the guidance of the Office Manager.
As such, the role will include elements of routine as well as variety and will require the role holder to be able to multi-task and work efficiently under pressure.
We are looking for someone who is organised, methodical and able to follow correct procedures and complete tasks effectively to support the smooth running of the school’s operations.
You will be joining a supportive team of equally committed individuals who are passionate about the quality of their work but also care about each other’s wellbeing.

If you believe you have the passion, determination and high expectations to contribute to our vibrant and cohesive community, we look forward to hearing from you.
In addition, as part of the shortlisting process, we may conduct an online search as part of due diligence checks in the recruitment process.
