About the role
Accountant, New College Lanarkshire
Location: One of the three main College campuses in Coatbridge, Cumbernauld or Motherwell
Salary: £48,759 - £51,360
At New College Lanarkshire (NCL), we know that education can transform the lives of individuals, and we understand that learning can make it a better world for us all.
We wholeheartedly believe in the transformative potential of education, and this belief guides and motivates our dedicated staff in all their activities.
This is an exciting time to join NCL as we move forward with the implementation of our Strategy 2030. Guided by our mission, We Bring Education Closer, we support a diverse student body with over 10,000 individuals and play a pivotal role in fulfilling the social, economic, and cultural aspirations of its local communities.
We are now looking to appoint a motivated and enthusiastic individual to join our Finance Department as a qualified Accountant. Reporting to the Financial Controller, you will be responsible for preparing management and statutory financial information, supporting budget management processes, maintaining financial controls and providing professional financial advice to budget holders and senior managers. Coupled with this, you will contribute towards the continuous improvement of financial systems and processes and ensure compliance with all relevant accounting standards, statutory requirements and NCL policies & procedures.
The role calls for someone who has excellent analytical, organisational and communication skills, with the ability to explain complex financial information clearly to non-financial stakeholders and build effective working relationships across NCL.
