For two of these charities, the work involves the consolidation of the results of the school operations. The postholder will be the key contact for the external auditor for the year-end audits for these charities.

There will also be an opportunity to support with the production of other financial information and to contribute to improvements in financial procedures and controls, both within financial reporting and more widely in the Finance department.

The role is expected to be part-time though it may require some weeks of full-time (or close to full-time) during the external audit period. The work is likely to take c.4 months, after which point the responsibilities for the school charities will revert to the permanent team.
