About the Role

The organisation

You'll join a small property business offering broad exposure across several real estate investment and development companies. The role provides part-time flexibility and the opportunity to develop as your responsibilities grow.

The role and responsibilities

Reporting directly to the Financial Controller, the Property Finance and Operations Assistant will:

* Raise rent and service charge demands and manage credit control.

* Process invoices, expenses, payments and utility recharges.

* Complete bank reconciliations and maintain cashflow records.

* Maintain sales and purchase ledgers using Propman.

* Support quarter-end processes, VAT preparation and service charge reconciliations.

* Assist with Charity Trust administration and donations.

* Support the smooth running of the office, including systems, suppliers, records and correspondence.

The skills needed

The successful Property Finance and Operations Assistant will have:

* Working knowledge of similar finance and administrative responsibilities.

* A sound understanding of basic accounting and double-entry bookkeeping.

* Good attention to detail and communication skills.

* Working knowledge of Microsoft Office or Google Workspace.

* The ability to prioritise workloads and work independently within a small team.

Property-sector experience, Propman knowledge and an AAT or similar qualification are desirable rather than essential.

Interviews are ongoing, so apply now to be considered.
