You will ideally be a qualified accountant, with broad ranging finance and commercial skill set who is looking for a varied finance role where no two days will be the same. You will be an exceptional people-manager, who can motivate and mentor a wide-ranging team, and have good communication skills, a sense of humour, able to make the workplace “fun” but at the same time deliver results. A background in the education sector would be advantageous, however the above attributes are just as important and therefore sector background is open.
John Leggott is an expanding college enjoying increased student numbers, investment in the property and estates and the finance department, coupled with exciting projects around long term sustainability and decarbonization. This really is an amazing time to be joining them, as their current Finance Director retires.
If you are looking for a role where you can make a positive impact on the community of Scunthorpe then this will suit you, you can become part of a dedicated and loyal team who really want to do their best by their students at a very important junction in their lives.
