What you’ll be doing:

Assess the financial viability of complex development schemes, producing accurate, evidence-based business cases.
Build, stress-test, and interpret detailed financial models at both project and programme levels.
Review completed investments to identify risks, lessons learned, and future opportunities.

A qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, or CIMA) with strong housing development finance experience, ideally gained in a housing association or similar organisation.
Strong knowledge of viability modelling tools such as ProVal, Pamwin, or similar systems.
Proven expertise in investment appraisal, development viability, and financial modelling.
Excellent analytical and communication skills – able to translate complex financial information for non-finance audiences.
A proactive approach, with the confidence to work independently and influence decisions at a senior level.

Why join us?

Work with a socially driven organisation that invests in communities and homes across the UK.
Enjoy flexible homeworking alongside a supportive, team-focused culture.
Receive a competitive salary, excellent pension, generous annual leave, and ongoing professional development opportunities.
