The Trent Academies Group is a multi-academy trust, based in Nottingham. Our aim is to support schools and academies in providing outstanding education for their pupils. The Trust currently consists of Rushcliffe School, an outstanding school in West Bridgford and The Farnborough Academy, Clifton and the Arnold Hill Academy, Arnold. However, the trust will, subject to due diligence, merge with the Spencer Academies Trust from 1st September in order to give our staff the opportunity to broaden their range of skills and experience and bring benefits to our pupils and the whole education system.

In our Group we work together, share staff, join up expertise, build on each other’s strengths, pool resources and combine facilities, so that everybody, staff and pupils, gets the chance to shine and achieve their best.

We wish to appoint a Finance Officer to join the team at The Farnborough Academy. We are looking for an enthusiastic team player who is willing to learn and help develop the financial administrative support in the academy.

The person appointed will act as the first point of contact for most finance orientated enquiries from staff, parents and pupils. The role includes all aspects of Finance including sales ledger, purchase ledger, cash handling and banking, BACS payments and bank reconciliation.

Please refer to the job description and person specification for more details of the duties and responsibilities.

It is intended that the role would be based at The Farnborough Academy but the diversity of academies within the Group will provide fantastic opportunities for individuals to develop practice and skills.
