An exciting opportunity has arisen in the School of Dentistry to recruit a self-motivated and enthusiastic individual as a Finance Officer. You will be part of a small team providing financial support and advice to both staff and students of the School of Dentistry. You will work closely with the Finance Manager and Senior Management Team but also working as part of the wider Professional Services Team to ensure an efficient and quality service is provided.
You should have significant recent experience of working in a finance environment. There are some things that you must have before you can start this role (see 'essential criteria' below'), but other things can be developed through training and general on-the-job experience. We want to support and develop you once you have started in the role, using a combination of the following: Regular one-to-ones with your line manager and team meetings; an experienced and supportive team around you; support from other colleagues doing your role in the School and across other Schools through the finance network and other groups; supporting you through job-relevant training and development that you may require; access to mentoring schemes and more.
For an informal discussion about the role please contact Joanne Howell on howellj11@cardiff.ac.uk

It is an exciting and vibrant place to work, with many different challenges and is a proud Living Wage supporter.
The majority of roles at Cardiff University are currently operating under “blended working” arrangements, with staff having the flexibility to work partly from home and partly from the University campus depending on specific business requirements. Discussions around these arrangements can take place after the successful candidate has been appointed.
