* Prepare monthly cash flow statements and help control expenditure across the organisation
* Support the annual budgeting and business plan refresh, providing scenario planning and modelling
* Oversee rent and service charge setting, including the annual rent-setting cycle
* Act as a key point of contact for internal and external auditors, supporting the Head of Finance through statutory reporting and audit
* Line manage, develop and support a Financial Accounts Assistant

* ACA/ACCA/CIMA qualified – ideally fully qualified, though candidates qualified by experience will be considered
* Strong analytical skills, with the ability to interpret data and translate it into clear, actionable insight (essential)
* Strong Excel skills are essential
* Confidence producing end-to-end management and statutory accounts
* Experience within the housing sector is preferred, but not essential
Why Join the business
* Hybrid working with 3 days in the office
