Job description

We’re working exclusively with this well-established Real Estate investor who has recently taken on significant funding, so growth is very much the focus!

This role has been created as a direct result of this growth and is an amazing opportunity to join a business expected to expand vastly over the next 24 months and beyond.

You’ll need experience in property / real estate investment funds, as we require someone to establish several new fund structures from a financial and operational perspective.

• Partner the MD and CEO in establishing several new institutional funds
• Lead the structuring of these funds and appoint appropriate third parties
• Implement a best-in-practice finance function, including FP&A, financial reporting, and tax
• Utilize technology to enhance commercial/performance reporting and capabilities
• Lead an existing team, managing their growth and development, and increase team size
• Manage all external banking relationships and lead subsequent funding requirements as the business grows
• Oversee all budgeting, forecasting, and performance reporting activities
• As the business scales, lead all strategic growth initiatives, including outsourcing, operational structuring, and developing a team ‘fit for growth’

This is a new opportunity, offering the chance to build a role for yourself. You need to be comfortable with ambiguity and a landscape likely to change many times as the business grows.

You need to be comfortable and excited by this.

Essential Experience Needed:

• Demonstrable experience as a Finance Director
• Fully qualified accountant with proven experience in real estate fund management
• Ideally experience in institutional credit
• A genuine enthusiasm for leading and developing a team
• Experience in setting up new fund structures
• Strong operational and strategic finance experience – this is not a reporting role
• Enthusiasm and passion for building an exceptional business
• Confidence without arrogance

This genuinely is a brilliant opportunity, working with a superb leadership team.

It will be a busy role with lots of scope for personal development, and you will have the opportunity to lead and implement your own strategies.

Great role for someone with the right industry experience.
