New year. New role. Actually worth your time.
Tired of finance roles that sell "business partnering" and deliver little more than month-end and reconciliations? This one genuinely is different.
Our client is a fast-growing European real estate investment manager, backed by €30bn+ of AUM, actively scaling its UK build-to-rent platform. They are hiring a Management Accountant to sit close to the investment team and take real ownership as the portfolio grows.
What this role actually gives you:
Real influence - your numbers inform investment decisions, not just reporting packs
Genuine breadth - multi-entity accounting, investor reporting, lender covenants, forecasting
An entrepreneurial environment - lean team, high accountability, no corporate noise
Clear progression - the platform is scaling and finance will scale with it
Ownership from day one - systems, processes, and controls are being built, not inherited
What they're looking for:
Qualified or part-qualified (ACA / ACCA / CIMA)
Experience in property, real estate, or asset management
Strong UK GAAP and Excel capability
Someone commercially curious who enjoys solving problems, not just following process
The honest reality:
This is not a 9-5, low-pressure role. It is fast-moving, high-exposure, and demanding. You will be stretched. But if you want responsibility, visibility, and a seat at the table in a growing investment business, this is exactly that.
