About the Opportunity
An established property developer and investor, with a pipeline of substantial residential and mixed-use schemes, is looking to add a finance-focused analyst to complement its existing team. This is a newly shaped position rather than a like-for-like replacement, reflecting a shift in what the business needs from this seat over the coming year.

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What Makes the Role Exceptional
Rather than being brought in purely as an analyst, you'll sit across two disciplines - appraisals and valuations - with structured training given on the valuations side, so prior exposure isn't essential. The scale of the schemes involved (£150m+) gives real weight to the work from day one, and the business has already signalled its intention to grow this into a dedicated investment analyst role next year.
Key Responsibilities
- Prepare development appraisals for schemes typically exceeding £150 million in value
- Build and maintain cash flow models to support development decisions
- Support the valuations process alongside the wider finance team, with training provided
- Maintain and update Smartsheets for project tracking
- Contribute to quarterly reporting cycles
- Track tax positions and requirements across projects
- Develop and maintain investment templates used across the business
- Work closely with finance colleagues to complement the existing team's skillset
Requirements
- Demonstrable experience building financial models
- Experience of, or strong exposure to, development appraisals
- Willingness to develop valuations experience - training will be provided
- Strong Excel skills; Smartsheets experience useful but not essential
- Working understanding of tax considerations within real estate projects
- No professional qualification required
- Comfortable operating as part of a small, close-knit team
- Strong attention to detail, particularly around quarterly reporting deadlines
