Position title
Group Head of Finance - Property Investment - Surrey
Description

FD Capital is recruiting a Group Head of Finance on behalf of a growing UK property investment business based in Surrey. Our client acquires and develops specialist housing accommodation, leased to housing providers under long-term arrangements, generating resilient contracted rental income while supporting the wider need for better community-based care.

Operating through a multi-entity group structure, the business is now looking for a commercially minded, hands-on finance leader to take ownership of the finance function as the portfolio and investor base continue to expand.

Responsibilities

Reporting to the CEO/CFO, you will take full ownership of the integrity, control and forward planning of the Group's finances — spanning statutory and management reporting, VAT, cash-flow planning, investor distributions, group accounting, budgeting and fundraising support. This is a genuinely broad, senior finance leadership role for someone equally comfortable setting strategy and working through the detail.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Day-to-day ownership of the Group finance function across all companies and property-owning entities
  • Monthly consolidated management accounts, VAT compliance, and coordination of year-end statutory accounts and audit
  • Short-, medium- and long-term cash-flow forecasting across the Group and underlying entities
  • Administration of investor dividends — calculations, schedules, reconciliation and full audit trail
  • Leading the annual budgeting/forecasting cycle and building financial models for acquisitions, yields and investor returns
  • Supporting equity fundraising, financial due diligence and transaction work
  • Managing external accountants, auditors and tax advisers, and building internal finance capability as the team grows
Qualifications

What We're Looking For

  • ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified, with strong post-qualification experience in a group structure
  • Strong technical grounding in consolidations, intercompany accounting, VAT and financial controls
  • Advanced Excel/financial modelling skills and confidence with modern cloud accounting systems
  • Property, investment, private equity, funds or another investor-backed background highly desirable
  • Direct, credible communicator, comfortable presenting to Boards, investors and advisers
Job Benefits

£85,000–£95,000 + bonus
