About this Role
Joining Cheshire Academies Trust (CAT) as a Trust Business Manager is a chance to play a central role in improving outcomes for children by strengthening the leadership and operational effectiveness of our academies.
Reporting to the Chief Finance &amp; Operations Officer (CFOO), you will be a key member of the central team, working closely with School Business Managers, Headteachers and Governors across 5–7 schools. You will help ensure that every academy has the resources, systems and support it needs to deliver high-quality, inclusive education.
This is a hybrid role. It offers a high degree of flexibility, with mostly home-working (or office-based if preferred) and regular, planned visits to school sites in Cheshire, Wirral and Liverpool to build strong, consistent relationships.
You will act as the Trust’s lead contact for resource management, supporting schools to meet the CAT financial framework and Resource and Operations Strategy. Working alongside the CFOO, you will:
<ul>
<li>Mentor and coach School Business Managers, supporting their wellbeing and professional growth.</li>
<li>Guide financial and operational practice, including budget planning, monitoring and value-for-money decision making;</li>
<li>Lead weekly SBM network meetings, strengthening collaboration and consistency across the Trust.</li>
<li>Design and deliver training for school and Trust colleagues;</li>
<li>Support recruitment to key business and support roles;</li>
<li>Provide technical financial expertise and contribute to Trust-wide policies, processes and reporting;</li>
<li>Strengthen compliance, including with the Academy Trust Handbook 2025 and Trust policies;</li>
<li>Champion the effective use of Trust systems, including Civica, Xero for Education, Planergy and IMP.</li>
</ul>
As CAT begins its next phase of growth, this is an opportunity to shape how resource management and operations work at Trust level. We are seeking a motivated, forward-thinking professional with integrity, excellent communication skills and the ability to build strong, trusting relationships. You will be confident in:
<ul>
<li>Managing multiple priorities in a busy, changing environment;</li>
<li>Analysing and presenting data to support decision making;</li>
<li>Working autonomously while contributing to a wider central team.</li>
</ul>
You will bring proven financial management experience, ideally in a multi-site or complex organisation (education, public sector or not-for-profit experience is particularly welcome). You will be proficient in Microsoft 365 applications and familiar with MIS and business systems (or keen and able to learn quickly). We will also consider candidates with an equivalent blend of qualifications and substantial relevant experience in school business leadership or finance, HR or operations in a similar role.
This is a 37 hours per week, 52 weeks per year role. We actively support flexible working and will welcome applications from suitably qualified candidates who wish to job share or work on a term time only basis.
Please state clearly in your application if you are seeking a flexible or alternative working pattern. Our usual central team hours are 9:00–17:00, Monday to Friday, but you will be expected to work flexibly to meet the needs of the Trust. For example, the majority of our Governing Body meetings take place in the evening, so you would adjust your hours in order to attend.
We offer: • Permanent contract (after 6-month probation) • Annual pay increases on a national scale • 26 days’ annual leave + bank holidays (rising to 31 days after 5 years) • Funded, personalised training plan • Local Government Pension Scheme membership • Annual flu jab • Salary sacrifice schemes (Cycle to Work, White Goods)
We are proud of our&nbsp;collaborative, values-led culture&nbsp;and you will join a central team that works closely with schools, is approachable and supportive, and is committed to staff wellbeing as well as pupil outcomes.
If you believe you are the ideal candidate for our Trust School Business Manager position or would like more information, please email our CFOO, Luci Jones to arrange an informal discussion&nbsp;<a href="mailto:lucijones@cheshireacademiestrust.co.uk" target="_blank">lucijones@cheshireacademiestrust.co.uk</a>.&nbsp;
Application Process: Please submit your application via the View My New Term website using the link <a href="https://mynewterm.com/jobs/5455/EDV-2025-CAT-04056" target="_blank">https://mynewterm.com/jobs/5455/EDV-2025-CAT-04056</a>. The closing date is Friday 9th&nbsp;January at 9am. We aim to interview week beginning 19 January for an early as possible start in 2026.

<h2>Good Growth</h2>
Good Growth is responsible for delivering and implementing the Mayor’s environment, transport and economic strategies and for the effective implementation of the London Plan. The Directorate is also responsible for regeneration (where the programme is not housing led), enterprise, growth, capital projects and design work.
<h2>About the team</h2>
The London Plan Team is a friendly and inclusive team of innovators and experts at the forefront of Planning, developing new forward thinking strategic policies to promote high quality sustainable development in London as we move towards a new London Plan. We think long-term and big picture – without taking our eye off the detail. Our work involves policy making to bring forward good growth that meets London’s needs in a sustainable way to deliver high quality living for all.
We welcome and support new staff to make sure they become effective members of the team, helping them to realise their full potential, not only to deliver their responsibilities but also to help them achieve their own professional career aspirations.
<h2>About the role</h2>
The London Plan (the Mayor’s Spatial Development Strategy), shapes the growth of London as a whole, setting the parameters and policies for development across the capital, from planning for the homes and employment space that Londoners need, to delivering the infrastructure necessary to meet growth ambitions. It’s an exciting time to join as we are in the process of preparing a new draft plan, and the programme leading up to and including the plan’s examination-in-public and adoption.
From leading conversations and engagement with stakeholders and communities, to producing data-driven evidence, and using your judgment and knowledge to advise the Senior Team and Deputy Mayor on planning and policy formation, no two days will be the same. You’ll be part of a friendly team with a to-do list that will continue to build on previous successes to:&nbsp;&nbsp;

This role is within the housing sub-team of the London Plan. You’ll be a skilled communicator, with a successful track record of policy development and plan-making, ideally with particular experience in planning for housing growth and a firm understanding of the importance and challenges around delivering affordable housing. Experience of working in planning policy at a London borough will be particularly welcome.&nbsp;&nbsp;
You’ll have excellent knowledge of the range of planning issues facing the capital and be able to demonstrate your political awareness. You’ll bring your enthusiasm to work with you in a role where you can benefit from professional development opportunities and on-the-job learning, as well as wider leadership opportunities, e.g. through participation in and leadership of our staff networks, and involvement in work to promote the equalities, diversity and inclusion agenda. This helps to make the GLA a great place to work, and a place that reflects the communities we serve.&nbsp;
We’re positive about flexible and hybrid working, with regular attendance at our office at Union Street, SE1 (Mondays) with an expectation that staff may need to attend in person up to 1 or 2 additional days per week, (site visits or attendance at other external meetings count towards this).
