Regional Finance Officer - Oasis Community Learning - North West Region If numbers are your thing and you are a whizz with finance software and spreadsheets, then you definitely speak our language and we may well have an opportunity to interest you. Oasis Community Learning is a business with a community purpose and vision to help every young person and community member to thrive and succeed, regardless of background or label. We are an Academy Trust operating in some the UKs most challenging areas and employ amazing teachers, brilliant support staff and a whole host of dedicated people in our central functions. One of which is Finance. But we are slightly short on resource right now and need to hire a numerate professional to bolster our team. The workload for a Finance function in a Trust of 56 schools and over 5000 employees is always high but add to that a number of projects designed to help us become more efficient and effective means we need some solid accounting horsepower in the region. As a Finance Officer in a supportive team you will work primarily from our academy in Clarksfield, Oldham (with occasional days from home) dealing with transactional processing, purchase and sales ledgers and balance sheets. You'll thrive in a world where orderliness and attention to detail is expected and where you derive great joy in things adding up just as they should. In return we'll give you flexibility, support and an opportunity to grow your skills, working alongside experienced finance professionals. You'll know that your efforts will go towards the organisation's mission to help the most disadvantaged to progress and to flourish. And that's a good feeling at the end of anyone's day. Want to put your numerical, logical brain to good use - here's what we are looking for: Experience with Transactional processing: Purchase ledger, Sales ledger, Receipts & Payments. Purchase ledger maintenance: BACS payments, reconciliations, debit balances, supplier account creation Sales ledger maintenance: Invoice management, debt chasing Bank Account maintenance: Reconciliation, filing, administration, payment runs Finance systems: creation of accounts, resolve queries Other duties: from credit card queries to ad hoc support to colleagues. Ideally you will have worked and be familiar with finance systems and be an advanced user of Excel. You'll be reliable, accurate and willing to get stuck in as part of a collaborative and highly supportive team. If this sounds like a great way to move onwards and upwards in your career - we are hiring now, so please complete the application form including a short cover statement as soon as possible highlighting why we would be missing an opportunity not to bring you into our team. When you complete your application, remember to evidence the key requirements of the role detailed in the Job Description attached in your supporting statement. We will be aiming to hold interviews in early March so a quick application would be advised as we may close the role early if we get a good response. For a full list of our benefits and an insight into why Oasis exists, please view the attached recruitment brochure.

Chief Financial Officer Recruiting in Aberdeen & Dundee! What's the opportunity? If you're a top quality Chief Financial Officer / Finance Director who's frustrated and fed up with the confines of a normal corporate life and you're looking for something different, or you're an independent CFO who's already made the break from corporate life, or a working or returning CFO parent who wants more work flexibility and work life balance, then read on, this might be for you. You'll be responsible for providing CFO services to ambitious £2-50M private businesses, supporting business owners to climb their Everest. We're not interested in people who just want a job. You'll help our clients reach those summits, you'll be a self-starter with ambition, energy, and a "can do" attitude, who has a passion to help our clients, typically business owners, entrepreneurs, CEO's or MD's. You'll thrive on the challenge and autonomy of growing your own portfolio of clients, supported by an incredible network of CFOs based across world. We have big dreams, and we expect you to have the same. What do you need to have? You need to be qualified from one of the UKs major chartered accounting institutes and have been a real-life CFO/FD once, twice or several times over, with strong experience and understanding of commercial finance, business strategy, and a track record of success, although your "special sauce" is your natural ability to build genuine long-lasting relationships with our clients. Part CFO, part advisor, part strategist, part friend. Your clients will say "this person and The CFO Centre are in it with me for the long-term, and I know they really care". Working closely with your Regional Director and team of CFO/FDs in a highly collegiate environment. We pride ourselves on being a great place to work, with family at our core, as is often found in our own client's operations. "I love the family feel of working here. People genuinely care, and you're not just a number. Colin, his wife Julie and all four of their sons make you feel like this business is yours as well." UK Colleague How does it work? The role is self-employed, whilst operating within a defined model, combining the benefits of being part of a team and supported by a well-established organisation, but with a level of autonomy and freedom in how you deliver outcomes for clients. Rather than feeding you fish, we teach you how to catch them and how to build a portfolio career that can be a game changer for clients and yourself. You'll love the challenge, variety and interest of working for multiple clients and appreciate the flexibility this way of working provides. A great listener, and even better at asking great questions, at first you'll wake up every day and think "how do I build my portfolio today" and then as your portfolio builds think "how do I add value and do something special for my clients today?" We're the UK & Global Market leading provider of part-time Finance Director's and Chief Finance Officer's services to mid-sized businesses. As we say, for those businesses that don't want, don't need and probably can't afford a full time CFO/FD, yet who want access to that skillset on an affordable part-time basis. Who are we? We're 700+ people, in 5 continents, operating across multiple regions in the UK & Ireland. We started The CFO Centre to change the game for mid-tier businesses! You'll join a collective team of former CEOs, Executives, CFOs, FDs, and successful business owners who count themselves at top of the game, and who've experienced success in their former lives. We're the Avengers team of the financial strategy world, bringing together thousands of years of collective experience to supercharge our clients' businesses. "I started here 4 years ago and I'm loving the lifestyle, loving the challenge, and loving the difference I can make to the clients I am working with, and the ethos of what this place is all about. I even get to go to my kids football games now!" - CFO Centre CFO We're a movement of people that left 'corporate' seeking a freedom-based lifestyle. This isn't about retiring or kicking back drinking pina coladas on a beach in Thailand. It's about doing something purposeful and being the captain of your own ship. Freedom is loving what you do, and about having choice. What do we do? We define and deliver the numbers that really matter. What does that mean? Well anyone can come up with numbers, we help our clients find the ones that really make a difference, not only to their business, but to their lives, and help deliver them! Whether that's growth, acquisition, consolidation, or setting them up for the lifestyle they've always wanted. "Working with The CFO Centre has been a game changer for my business. Not only have we doubled our revenue, I'm also able to focus on the things that really matter in the business now." - CEO Client Company We want to continue to change the game, and we are looking for a game changer to join us.
