Audit and Compliance

Coordinate assigned aspects of the annual independent audit, including preparation of schedules, workpapers, and supporting documentation.
Prepare schedules and supporting documentation for the School's annual Form 990, sales tax filings, and other regulatory filings, surveys, and required financial reports, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and compliance with applicable reporting requirements.
Support the School's system of internal controls by maintaining accurate financial records and promoting compliance with institutional policies and procedures.
Collaborate across departments on strategic initiatives, system implementations, reporting enhancements, and other projects that support the goals of the Business Office and the School.
Perform other related responsibilities and contribute to special projects as assigned in support of the evolving needs of the Business Office.

Financial Aid Administration & Enrollment Support

Serve as a key member of the Financial Aid Committee, leading the administration of the School’s financial aid program for prospective and returning students, including application review, award recommendations, reconciliation, reporting, and year-end analysis.
Act as the primary administrator for the School's financial aid management system (Clarity), ensuring accurate and efficient processing while maintaining the integrity of financial aid and enrollment data.
Partner closely with the Admissions team throughout the enrollment cycle to align financial aid administration with the School's recruitment, enrollment, and retention goals.
Review financial aid applications and supporting documentation, evaluate family financial information, and prepare award recommendations consistent with School policies and budget parameters.
Serve as the primary point of contact for prospective and current families throughout the financial aid process, coordinating the issuance of enrollment contracts and reconciling financial aid awards with tuition billing and student account records.
Prepare reports and analyses related to enrollment, tuition revenue, tuition discount rate, and financial aid to support institutional decision-making.
Support the ongoing enhancement of financial aid and enrollment processes while providing families with a welcoming, respectful and supportive experience and exercising the highest level of discretion when handling sensitive and confidential financial information.

Demonstrated analytical, organizational, and problem-solving skills, with excellent attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a dynamic environment.
Excellent interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills, with the ability to build collaborative relationships across departments and provide outstanding customer service.
