Finance Analyst
London | 5 days in office | Up to £50,000 (DOE)
A growing real estate business is looking for a Finance Analyst to join its strategic finance team. The role reports to the Associate Director and covers investment analysis, development appraisals, portfolio valuations, and asset management reporting.
The business is building out its investment and valuations capability as it grows, so this role will help shape how those functions are set up. It suits someone from a real estate, investment, or development background who is comfortable working with financial models and wants a hands-on analytical role. An accounting background is not required.
Responsibilities
- Update and maintain development appraisal models across multiple projects, working with other departments to keep project information accurate.
- Track live development costs against monthly budgets and report on ROI throughout the project lifecycle.
- Support the move from self-funded developments to third-party development finance.
- Update investment and stabilized appraisal models, researching market and operational data to support assumptions.
- Produce quarterly portfolio valuations and analyze market rents, yields, and asset performance across different asset classes.
- Use the asset management model, KPIs, and dashboards to report on portfolio performance.
- Prepare asset memorandums for lenders, new acquisitions, and quarterly reporting.
- Maintain the utilities benchmarking and forecasting model with the Senior Management Accountant.
- Liaise with agents, advisers, and internal teams, and provide ad hoc analysis across the business.

Why apply
This is a chance to help set up the investment and valuations function in a growing business rather than join an established one. You'll get exposure to acquisitions, development finance, valuations, and asset management, work closely with senior decision-makers, and your role will grow as investment activity increases over the coming years.
