Job Details

Communicate have recently partnered with a growing Real-Estate/Property business on their #2 hire. The business has secured a number of new contracts and is now on an exciting growth trajectory.

We have now been mandated to help the business secure an impressive Property/Real-Estate specialist. We will ideally be looking for an ACA Qualified Accountant, with a background spent in large recognisable corporates/blue-chips (preferably in the Real-Estate/Property/Construction space). This role, given the nature of an SME, may well go past core finance. This is an end-to-end role that will cover all aspects of group reporting, consolidations, management accounts and commercial finance/business partnering, as well as IR/Tax/Treasury etc.

This is an opportunity that is few and far between in the current climate, with an impressive CFO and lean finance team.

Our client will be looking to interview in the next fortnight.

Qualifications / Experience Required:

  • ACA (big 4) / CIMA Qualified
  • Extensive exposure to the Real-Estate/Construction/Property space
  • Listed and/or blue-chip business experience
  • Proven track record of hitting the ground running, building out and working with lean finance teams
  • Previously a divisional Head of Finance/FC (within a large corporate) or an SME HoF/FC
  • On a maximum of 3 months’ notice

Company

Communicate stands for excellence, entrepreneurialism and delivery. 

Our aim is simple: to source and place the best candidates within timeframes which surpass those of other recruitment businesses. With 32% of placements made this year being at FTSE 100 companies, we feel we are living up to our aspirations. 

Specialising in the placement of permanent and interim candidates for many of the world’s best companies, Communicate has earned an excellent reputation for providing fast and effective recruitment on a retained or contingent basis, without ever compromising quality. Indeed, despite the market average for finding new opportunities through word-of-mouth being just 18%*, this year, 67% of the placements made so far have been agency network, referred or headhunted candidates. 

In addition, we are thought leaders, regularly appearing in national, regional and trade publications. 

We are also market leaders. Our pioneering product – the Communicate Contingent Retainer – guarantees we fill vacancies within six weeks or refund all payments, in full, immediately. This means positions are filled with exceptional candidates at four times the speed of the industry standard and clients are not exposed to the 20% risk of paying for a service they do not receive, as is typical with most of our competitors’ retained assignments. 

*Survey data collected from conversations with our leading clients in 2012 on sourcing candidates.
