To support you in this activity, you'll manage a team of finance specialists that includes Management Accountants and a Finance Analyst.

You should be a Qualified Accountant with demonstrable experience in a finance business partnering role (or similar senior finance position) with exposure to key managementstakeholders, ideally within the housing, construction or property sectors. You will be commercially focused and a confidentcommunicator as you'll be presenting your analysis and advice to senior leaders and Board sub-committees to enable accurate financial business planning.
