Contract Type: Permanent

Hours: Part-time 4 days p/week, flexible hours

Salary: Competitive, Local Government Pension Scheme

We are seeking an exceptional Director of Finance (CFO) to join our leadership team at a pivotal point in our journey. With the impending planned retirement of our current postholder, this is an exciting opportunity to shape the next phase of the Trust’s development — strengthening financial strategy, driving sustainability, and supporting future growth.

Working closely with the CEO and Board of Trustees, you will provide strategic leadership across all aspects of financial management, compliance and assurance. You will play a key role in delivering our Vision 2030 and our five Big Moves, ensuring every pound we invest brings maximum value to the children and communities we serve.

We are looking for a qualified finance professional who combines strategic insight with operational excellence. You will have a collaborative, values-driven approach and the ability to influence at all levels. Experience within education, public sector, or charitable contexts would be an advantage, but above all, you will share our commitment to integrity, inclusion and impact.

What's special about our Trust?

At Inspire Learning Partnership, we believe that people are the key to delivering exceptional education for every child. Yes, there are some perks to working in our Trust, but we feel that the most significant one, is that we provide you with an environment where you can do your best work, be listened to, involved and valued. Our people strategy is at the heart of our work across the Trust. 

As a member of a small, dynamic central team, you’ll have the chance to shape Trust-wide systems, strengthen partnerships, and contribute to our wider work across IT, procurement and sustainability — helping ensure our schools thrive and our people flourish.

The successful applicant will be warmly welcomed into our Trust partnership and able to access a myriad of opportunities and experiences that will support personal and professional growth. We are research led and psychological safety is an important feature of the approach that we take to staff development and growth within our Trust.
