Where does this role fit in?
As part of our Corporate Finance team, this role plays a critical part in supporting the growth and development of Pobl’s property portfolio – which is set to expand by 10,000 new affordable homes in the coming decade. Reporting to the Head of New Business, Property & Financial Planning, this role ensures our investment decisions are based on rigorous financial analysis and robust accounting practices. It’s a specialist leadership role that bridges the gap between viability, planning and property accounting – ensuring a seamless process up to the point of property handover.
What’s great about the role?
This is a high-impact role where your financial modelling, analytical insight and leadership will directly influence how we invest and grow across South Wales. You'll join a team on a job share basis, working 24 hours per week and lead a small team focused on evaluating new opportunities.
Using Excel, option appraisal tools and Brixx you’ll provide clear insights and help shape multi-million-pound decisions.
You'll work across multiple functions – from development and asset management to care and support – supporting business planning, option appraisals, financial analysis, audit and compliance.
It’s varied, challenging, and makes a real difference to the communities we serve.
What Skills and Experience do you need?
We’re looking for someone who is:
- A qualified CCAB accountant with advanced Excel skills (Brixx modelling skills desirable)
- Analytical, detail-focused and confident in challenging assumptions
- Experienced in evaluating capital investment schemes and ideally revenue viabilities in care and support settings
- Knowledgeable about property accounting and its role in the development lifecycle
- A strong communicator who can collaborate effectively with stakeholders at all levels
- An experienced team leader, able to develop others and foster high performance
- Methodical and able to manage complex, competing priorities
- Enthusiastic about improving systems and processes across the Group
