COMPANY PROFILE

An established property business is looking to appoint an experienced Interim Client Accountant to support its finance function on a hands-on accounting and reconciliation project. The business manages a portfolio of property assets and requires an experienced contractor who can quickly get to grips with its existing Qube environment, resolve historic accounting discrepancies and strengthen the reconciliation process going forward.

ROLE OVERVIEW

This is a delivery-focused interim assignment requiring someone with strong property/client accounting experience and extensive hands-on knowledge of Qube. A key focus will be reviewing and resolving differences between client bank accounts, the Qube cash book and nominal ledger, ensuring balances are fully reconciled and that robust processes are established for the team going forward.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Take ownership of client accounting and reconciliation activity across the property portfolio.
  • Perform detailed reconciliations between client bank accounts, Qube cash book and nominal ledger.
  • Investigate historic discrepancies and identify the underlying causes of unreconciled balances.
  • Correct accounting entries and ensure transactions are accurately reflected within Qube.
  • Review existing client accounting processes and identify areas requiring remediation or improvement.
  • Support accurate monthly bank and client money reconciliations.
  • Ensure accounting processes and controls are appropriate for a property management environment.
  • Work closely with the existing finance and property teams to resolve outstanding issues.
  • Document improved reconciliation procedures and controls.
  • Provide knowledge transfer and guidance to the permanent team to ensure processes remain effective following completion of the assignment.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

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.
