This role has been created as a direct result of this growth and presents an exciting chance to join a rapidly expanding business over the next 24 months and beyond.

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

• Implement a best-in-class finance function, including FP&A, financial reporting, and tax
• Leverage technology to improve commercial and performance reporting capabilities
• Lead and develop an existing team, with plans to increase team size
• Manage external banking relationships and oversee funding requirements as the business expands
• Oversee budgeting, forecasting, and performance reporting activities
• Drive strategic growth initiatives, including outsourcing, operational structuring, and building a team suited for growth

This is a new opportunity, allowing you to shape your role. You should be comfortable with ambiguity and adaptable to change as the business evolves.

You need to be excited and confident about this.

Essential Experience Needed:

• Proven experience as a Finance Director
• Fully qualified accountant with experience in real estate fund management
• Ideally, experience in institutional credit
• A passion for leading and developing teams
• Experience in establishing new fund structures
• Strong operational and strategic finance expertise – this is not a reporting-only role

Ideal for someone with relevant industry experience seeking a challenging and rewarding position.
