Are you a hands-on, proactive finance professional looking for the next step in your career? We're looking for a Client Accountant to join a growing team and take ownership of a multi-site residential portfolio. This is not just a support role, you'll be empowered to manage, report and drive real financial insight across a diverse property portfolio.

This is a 6 month Fixed Term Contract with high potential for permanent employment.

What You'll Be Doing:

Portfolio Management

  • Take full ownership of a regional portfolio of residential sites - typically 4-5, depending on size.
  • Work closely with Operations, Finance, and Commercial teams to deliver accurate, timely, and meaningful financial insights.

Monthly & Quarterly Reporting

  • Lead the creation of management packs, with commentary that brings the numbers to life.
  • Drive monthly forecasting and support budgeting processes across departments.
  • Deliver clear variance/trend analysis to help shape performance conversations with stakeholders.

Site-Level Engagement

  • Attend monthly meetings with site teams across UK wide portfolio.
  • Provide financial support and commentary to both internal external stakeholders.

Day-to-Day Accounting

  • Oversee rent sweeps, funding requests, and cashflow reporting.
  • Collaborate with Accounts Payable and onsite teams to ensure smooth month-end processes and invoice management.
  • Ensure completeness of month-end processes and support the audit as needed.

Who We're Looking For:

  • Qualified or Studying: AAT qualified. Open to someone studying towards CIMA or ACCA - you will be supported - with time off and financial support (payback model applies).
  • Experienced: You know your way around monthly reporting, P&L forecasting, and management packs. You've worked across commercial/ops and finance.
  • Excel Confident: You're an advanced Excel user - modelling, analysis, and scenario tools are second nature to you.
  • Hands-On & Accountable: You don't need someone checking every step - you take ownership, think critically, and follow through.
  • People-Centric: You communicate clearly with site teams, clients, and stakeholders alike. You can explain "the why" behind the numbers.

What You'll Get:

  • A supportive and collaborative team
  • Real ownership and the ability to influence decision-making
  • Study support (both time and funding)
  • Exposure across Finance, Ops, and Commercial
  • Progression opportunities as the company grows
  • Occasional travel and flexibility when needed

Job Types: Full-time, Fixed term contract

Contract length: 6 months

Work Location: Wantage, Oxfordshire
