Do you like having great benefits and somewhat flexible hours? Are you willing to wear a little blue and gold on Fridays? If so, Granville CSD in Granville, NY wants you as their next Deputy Treasurer!
Join our team and you'll work closely with our School Business Official (like a CFO, but for public schools), HR, Payroll and everyone else in the District Office who likes to drop in to ask you questions like "do you have any chocolate" in between Purchase Order inquiries.
Granville CSD is looking for a Deputy Treasurer to take over for a valued, soon to retire member of the team. She'll stay awhile to train you but you should be prepared to bring in chocolates from time to time, says one district office staff member that shall not be named. Just kidding you don't need to bring in chocolates, but peppermint patties are great, just FYI. (HR would not agree to chocolate comments, but hopefully she won't see this.)
We work hard, we go above and beyond for our school district and we never shy away from a challenge in the name of our school community.
If you like the idea of applying your accounting know-how to public school finances and making a difference in your community, then join us!
Apply today and don't forget the peppermint patties.
P.S. Peppermint patties not required in application and chocolate comments are not approved by HR.
