Interim Rent & Service Charge Accountant

Posted 1 week ago by Robertson Bell

The Role

You will play a key role in working through a significant backlog of service charge queries, ensuring accounts are accurate and issues are resolved efficiently.

Key responsibilities will include:

  • Investigating and resolving service charge queries and account discrepancies.
  • Tracing issues across budgets, supporting documentation and financial systems.
  • Identifying errors and understanding the underlying cause of discrepancies.
  • Reviewing tenant/service charge accounts and correcting inaccuracies.
  • Working collaboratively with finance and housing colleagues to resolve queries.
  • Escalating more complex issues where appropriate and supporting wider finance projects.
  • Helping to improve the accuracy and efficiency of service charge processes.

About You

We are looking for someone with at least 2 years' experience working within a service charge environment.

You'll ideally be:

  • Inquisitive and naturally curious when investigating financial discrepancies.
  • A confident problem-solver who enjoys finding the answer rather than simply processing transactions.
  • Resilient and comfortable working through a high-volume backlog.
  • Detail-oriented, with a strong focus on accuracy.
  • Able to work independently while knowing when to seek guidance.
  • Comfortable working with financial systems and large volumes of account information.

Experience of Civica CX would be a strong advantage: although this is not essential.
