The King Edward VI Foundation, Birmingham, is a progressive charitable organisation which has supported
excellence in education across the City since 1552. Our schools are diverse in nature but have a common purpose
and commitment to achieving our mission of “making Birmingham the best place to be educated in the UK”.
Our Academy Trust currently consists of two independent schools, six selective, and six non-selective academies.
The King Edward VI Academy Trust Birmingham (“the Academy Trust”) was established in 2017 and is made up of
the academies outlined above. The academies receive central support services including Finance, from the
Foundation, with several staff being seconded from the Foundation to deliver support services to the Academy
Trust and the academies themselves.
We are looking to appoint a new Finance Manager, to work alongside an experienced team of Finance Managers to
provide dedicated support to the schools within the Academy Trust. This position also involves attending
the schools you support on a regular basis.
This is an excellent development opportunity to work within a growing MAT. The Finance Manager is a critical role
for the academies, the Academy Trust and the Foundation, ensuring that reliable and timely financial information is
available to allow academies to make informed decisions against a challenging financial landscape of constrained
government funding and rising costs.
The Finance Manager will need to be ready for this challenge and have a flexible and open mind, working in the
knowledge that, as the MAT grows, future changes and challenges will arise in continuing to enable the academies
to help educate the children of Birmingham.
