Part-time Bursar

This is an exciting opportunity to join our successful Christian School staff team, where staff feel supported and valued, and where pupils achieve excellent results. The King’s School has operated for over 40 years providing high quality Early Years, Primary and Secondary education. Currently the roll is 209 pupils.

Initially working alongside our previous post-holder, we are looking for an experienced finance professional who demonstrates the confidence to take on the day-to-day financial management for the school. The successful candidate will preferably have experience of using cloud-based financial software, MS Office Excel, and be familiar with budgeting and forecasting, and preparation of management accounts. Ideally the successful candidate should have previous experience in a school environment but this is not essential.

The role will involve interactions with staff, parents, governing bodies and suppliers, therefore good interpersonal skills are essential.

This is a year-round position. We are open to discussing flexible working arrangements regarding days and hours; however, some availability during school holidays is essential.

Visiting the school prior to interview is recommended. Please contact the school office (office@tkswitney.org.uk) to arrange a suitable time.

It is a genuine and determining occupational requirement that the job-holder must be a committed Christian, willing to work in line with the ethos and values of Oxfordshire Community Churches.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff to share this commitment and to undergo appropriate checks and training, including DBS checks.

This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. Applicants are therefore required to disclose relevant convictions and cautions in accordance with the law. Applicants are not required to disclose protected convictions or cautions that are filtered under the relevant legislation.

If you have a disability and require any reasonable adjustments that will enable you to apply for this position, then please let us know.

For further information and an application form, please contact Francine Smith at office@tkswitney.org.uk or telephone The King’s School on 01993 778463.
