Job overview

We are seeking to appoint a Finance Assistant to work within the Central Finance Team of The Learning Alliance based at Knutsford.

We are looking for candidates with experience of processing orders, invoicing and raising payments to suppliers, ideally within a school setting. The role also includes credit control, reconciliation and dealing with enquiries from internal and external sources. Support the Finance Officers will also be required when necessary.

The successful candidate must be an effective communicator, have good inter-personal skills, be able to work independently and demonstrate initiative. The job holder must be highly competent in the use of ICT and Microsoft Applications. Accuracy and attention to detail are equally important.

In line with the requirements of the Equality Act 2010 The Learning Alliance does not request attendance or medical information on candidates for posts prior to appointment. We will, however, seek a post-appointment reference for successful candidates, which will include questions relating to attendance records. Appointments will be made subject to this reference and the Trust may, in some circumstances, withdraw the offer of appointment on the basis of information received, again having full regard to the requirements of the Equality Act.

The Learning Alliance is committed to the promotion of equality of opportunity and the elimination of discrimination; all applicants should note that they will be considered on the basis of suitability regardless of disability, gender, race, religion, age, sexual orientation and marital status or any other discrimination which is unfair or unreasonable.
