Use footers and check the "First Page special" box in Format Section.

Having a footer for the Section is not in the least bit obnoxious. Just
turn off the standard page numbering in Format Section, turn on Footers,
click first page special, and then you will be able to put in a first
page footer (with nothing in it in your case) and a regular footer,
containing the page number positioned where you want it.
