- Knowledge of Sections 19, 20 and 20B of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985
- Experience reviewing financial information, supporting documentation and service charge evidence, and resolving complex disputes or escalations
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present complex information and findings clearly
- Strong analytical skills and the ability to identify risks, inconsistencies and opportunities for improvement
- The ability to manage multiple priorities, competing deadlines and complex casework

About the team
You’ll be part of our Service Charge team, which is responsible for delivering accurate, transparent and compliant service charges for our residents and leaseholders.
The team works closely with colleagues across Finance, Housing and Property Services to ensure service charges are calculated correctly, communicated clearly and supported by accurate data.
