Finance Assistant

St Nicholas Preparatory School is a vibrant, mixed ability co-educational day school for pupils aged 3-11 years. It is set in a beautiful location close to Hyde Park in the centre of London.

We are wishing to appoint a Finance & Operations Assistant from March 2019 for a fixed term period of 6 months, who will take on the financial accounting for the school as well as providing operational support as we seek to grow and expand the school at an exciting stage in its development. This is a vital post and the successful candidate will be an experienced practitioner with formal accounting qualifications or qualification by experience who can act on their own initiative and enjoy working as part of a team. They will be supporting the Business Manager in both the financial and operational aspects of the school and so the ability to cope with changing workloads and to tight deadlines is key. Knowledge of the Double First accounting platform would be an advantage although not essential. Further details and application forms should be downloaded from the TES website. CVs will not be accepted. Informal discussions with the Business Manager about the role are warmly welcomed.

Please submit your completed application form by e-mail to michelle.francis@stnicholasprep.co.uk or by post to arrive by midday Monday 4th February 2019. Interviews will take place on Tuesday 12th February 2019.
