Service Charge Accountant

Service Charge Accountant

Birmingham City Centre | Permanent | Hybrid Working

If you're a Service Charge Accountant who enjoys getting stuck into the detail of property finance, this could be the opportunity you've been looking for.

I'm working exclusively with a well-established property business in Birmingham City Centre that's looking to strengthen its finance team with the addition of an experienced Service Charge Accountant.

This isn't a role where you'll be boxed into one small part of the process. You'll have ownership of your own portfolio, work closely with Property Managers and Surveyors, and be involved throughout the full service charge cycle.

If you genuinely enjoy understanding the numbers behind a property, investigating variances and building relationships with stakeholders, you'll fit in well here.

The Role

• Managing a portfolio of service charge accounts from start to finish.
• Preparing service charge budgets, reconciliations and year-end accounts.
• Producing accurate financial reports and resolving service charge queries.
• Working closely with Property Managers, Surveyors and Facilities Managers.
• Reviewing expenditure and ensuring recoverable costs are allocated correctly.
• Supporting the wider finance team with continuous improvements to processes.

About You

You'll already have experience within property finance and understand the service charge process from invoice through to year-end.

Ideally you'll have:

• Previous Service Charge Accounting experience.
• Experience preparing budgets, reconciliations and year-end service charge accounts.
• A solid understanding of recoverable and non-recoverable expenditure.
• Strong communication skills and the confidence to build relationships with stakeholders.
• Experience within commercial or mixed-use property.

What's on Offer?

• Permanent opportunity.
• Hybrid working.
• Birmingham City Centre location.
• Competitive salary and benefits.
• Supportive finance team.
• Varied portfolio with plenty of autonomy.
• Opportunity to join a stable, well-established property business where your experience will be valued.
