Property Accountant (Pre-Handover)

About the role

This is a varied and high-impact role where you'll combine financial modelling, property accounting and leadership to support investment decisions across the Group.

You'll lead a small team responsible for evaluating new business opportunities and investment proposals, ensuring consistency, rigour and quality in all appraisals. Using Excel, viability tools and Brixx, you'll provide clear insight into financial performance and risk, supporting decisions on multi-million-pound developments and contracts.

You'll work closely with colleagues across development, asset management and care and support. Helping to evaluate opportunities, challenge assumptions, and ensure a joined-up approach to planning and delivery.

The role also plays a key part in property accounting up to the point of handover. You'll support audit, statutory returns, financial reporting and compliance, ensuring strong controls and accurate reporting across development activity.
