Well-Respected Small Housing Association
We’re partnering with a highly regarded small housing association based in East London, looking to bring on board a Service Charge Analyst to support their growing finance team. This is a fantastic opportunity to make a real impact in a hands-on, detail-focused role that underpins the accurate financial management of their services.

- Preparing annual service charge estimates, actuals, and sinking fund statements
- Carrying out variance analysis and responding to internal queries with a focus on continuous improvement
- Supporting improvement projects to enhance the quality of service charge reporting and compliance
- Collaborating closely with internal teams, especially the service charge accountants and leasehold officers
What We’re Looking For
- Experience working in a service charge finance role, ideally in a social housing or local government context
- Strong Excel skills and confidence working with large data sets
- Analytical mindset and a proactive, inquisitive personality
- Ideally part-qualified (AAT/ACCA/CIMA) but can also look at qualified by experience
This is a great next step for someone with a couple of years of service charge experience who’s looking for a more analytical, involved role in a supportive and mission-driven organisation.
