What will you be doing? You will be responsible for providing finance business partnering support to a portfolio of council services, and being the business partner to several service directors.
This will include managing finance support to services through the whole financial cycle, from medium-term financial planning and budget setting, to in-year financial monitoring, to accounts production. This role has a focus on the directorate’s capital programme, and will need to have a focus on financial governance.
About you We're looking to appoint a committed and self-motivated finance professional to bring energy and expertise to this role. As well as strong technical skills, you will be able to build relationships with heads of service and directors to support the council in delivering its ambitions.
You will be a fully-or part-qualified accountant, a problem solver, and able to pro-actively manage a varying workload that requires input from a range of peers and customers. Experience of working within a local authority would be very useful, but any finance professional working at, or aspiring to work at, this level is welcome to apply.
