District Bookkeeper Opening For 27-28 SY
Germantown Elementary School District #60 is seeking a District Bookkeeper to join our Bulldog family!
With the upcoming retirement of our longtime District Bookkeeper, Leigh Ann Arentsen, at the end of the 2026-27 school year, we are beginning our search early to provide the successful candidate with plenty of time to learn the position and ensure a smooth transition.
The District Bookkeeper is a full-time, 12-month position responsible for helping manage the financial operations of the district, including an annual budget of approximately $3 million. A background or experience in business management, administration, or accounting is preferred.
The position will officially begin July 1, 2027. However, the district has budgeted for the successful candidate to receive paid, on-the-job training throughout the 2026-27 school year. This training can be flexible and scheduled around the candidate's current work schedule and availability. The new bookkeeper will also have the opportunity to work alongside Leigh Ann during July 2027 to further assist with the transition.
Applications will be accepted through Friday, October 2, 2026, or until the position is filled, with interviews anticipated for late October and/or early November.
Interested individuals should submit a cover letter, résumé, and letters of recommendation via email to:
[email protected]
Applications may also be mailed or dropped off at:
Germantown Elementary School District #60
401 Walnut Street
Germantown, IL 62245
We are excited to begin the process of finding the next person to serve our students, staff, and community in this important role. Come join our Bulldog family!
