They currently have an exciting opportunity for a hard working and enthusiastic individual to join their Finance Team. In this challenging role, you will ensure the smooth day to day running of the main finance functions of the Trust whilst providing much needed support and assistance to others.

This organisation provides financial services to the highest standards and it is essential that their rent accounting system is maintained and updated on a daily basis. You will be responsible for ensuring that all interfaces to this system are operated correctly and will use it to prepare important rent control journals. Providing assistance with management accounts, you will help to investigate variances to budget and will develop financial reporting to cover the performance indicator requirements.

Taking responsibility for payments from tenants and leaseholders, you will be expected to promote direct debit payments, maintain payment records and take appropriate action for any rejected payments. You will also be involved in analysing invoices for emergency call outs and district heating account enquiries, calculations and rebates.
