Following a restructure the Council are currently recruiting for some key management roles in their finance team. These positions will support the Strategic Leads in developing a finance team with a business partnering culture focused on continuous improvements to ensure they are providing the financial information that senior leaders need to make informed decisions, helping achieve the Councils ambitious plans.

The Senior Finance Business Partners will report into the Strategic Finance Lead for their service and will be responsible for supporting key stakeholders across their service. As well as providing financial information, productive challenge, strategic and financial decision-making support, the roles will also contribute to the culture change by continuing to embed finance business and working with the services to look at innovative ways to deliver services in the most efficient manner.

To be suitable for the role you need to be a fully qualified accountant with experience in delivering a business partnering service. Exceptional communication and influencing skills, with the ability to develop relationships with a wide range of stakeholders is essential. Exposure to working with the services mentioned is highly desirable but applications from those within the NHS, Housing, Central Government and organisations providing residential care are highly encouraged.
