Founded in 1847, Pulteney Grammar School is a leading co-educational ELC-12 Anglican school woven into the fabric of Adelaide.  Defined by a tradition of innovation, Pulteney offers an education that empowers its students to prosper.  Uniquely situated on one site in the heart of the CBD, the School is an engaged and proud member of the City of Adelaide, enriched by a dynamic and connected community.  Pulteney now seeks a new Business Director to oversee the key corporate functions and contribute to the continued strength and future direction of the School.

Reporting directly to the Principal as a key member of the School Executive, and working closely with the School Board, the Business Director will be responsible for:

• enhancing the value proposition for Pulteney families;
• leading core business operations including finance, ICT, property and administration;
• proactively contributing to the overall strategy of the School;
• providing robust financial systems, insightful analysis and sound commercial advice;
• managing compliance, governance reporting and external supplier relationships to support informed decision making.

This is a broad and influential general management role, requiring both commercial acumen and authentic, relational leadership.  While experience in the education sector is not essential, a genuine belief in and affinity for independent education is key.  Most critical is the ability to blend strategic oversight with service-oriented leadership to support the ongoing success of this respected and future-focused educational institution.
