This includes staying abreast of news, state legislature updates, and educational board meetings to forecast and communicate financial implications. The successful candidate will lead a values-based budgeting process, manage budget development, and evaluate spending requests throughout the year. Additionally, the role involves ensuring the accuracy of financial calculations, monitoring compliance submissions, and performing budget-to-actual analysis for the entire organization.
