Summary
The School Finance Manager at EdOps will act as an outsourced CFO for a portfolio of 5-8 schools, providing strategic financial advice, producing forward-looking financial forecasts, and leading finance strategy development. The role requires experience in school finance management, comfort with accounting, strong quantitative analysis skills, excellent client communication skills, and strong organization and time management skills.
Requirements
- Experience excelling in a School Finance Management role (i.e., led finance function for a school, led part of a finance function in larger school organization)
- Experience as part of a School Leadership Team or working very closely with a School Leadership Team
- Comfort with accounting. A CPA or extensive expertise is not required, but experience navigating accounting software and reading and analyzing financial reports is a must
- Intermediate Excel knowledge, such as formulas like vlookups and sumifs, because Excel will be your best friend at times
- Strong quantitative analysis, strategic thinking, and problem-solving skills, as every school is different, and approaches and solutions often have to be customized
- Excellent client communication and interpersonal skills. Comfort presenting and explaining information (both verbally and in writing) to people with varying financial literacy
- Comfort interacting with, advising, and challenging C-Level leaders in schools
- Strong organization and time management skills. There is a lot going on here
- General comfort with technology systems (e.g., Google suite) because we are not big fans of paper around here at EdOps
Responsibilities
- Act as an outsourced CFO for a portfolio of 5-8 schools, advising these schools’ leaders and Boards on matters pertaining to financial and operational policies, strategic decisions, and long-term financial planning
- Produce forward-looking financial forecasts, set budgets, and lead finance strategy development in a way that aligns with school goals and reflects EdOps’s commitment to equity and anti-racism
- Attend finance committee or board meetings to present and explain finance strategy
- Analyze, model, and solve problems on a wide range of business issues
- Engage in client listening and endeavor to proactively identify and solve clients’ financial challenges - either directly, or through engaging other teams at EdOps
- Provide development and informal oversight to School Finance Specialists and School Finance Analysts on school-specific processes
Preferred Qualifications
Experience leading audits
Benefits
- Purpose driven work focusing on student achievement through operational excellence
- Chance to work every day with colleagues who are committed to kids and supportive of each other’s efforts
