Are you a proactive Finance Business Partner who thrives on making a tangible impact? Do you enjoy working closely with non-financial stakeholders to drive insight and accountability? Ready to join a community-focused organisation with a strong social mission?

Robertson Bell is proud to be partnering with a leading social housing provider to recruit a Finance Business Partner on a permanent basis. This is a brilliant opportunity to join a financially robust organisation with a community driven mantra and delivering services that change lives.

The role:

Reporting into the Senior Finance Business Partner and working closely with the Group Director of Finance, you'll take the lead on financial support for support services functions - including HR, Payroll, Finance, and Homeownership - with a clear remit to challenge, support and add value.

Key responsibilities:

Produce monthly management accounts for support service departments.

Own budgeting and forecasting processes: liaise with budget holders, lead meetings, provide insightful commentary and drive accountability.

Prepare balance sheet reconciliations and payroll reconciliations.

Deliver financial analysis and decision-support to key stakeholders, particularly around value for money.

Support group-wide projects and process improvements, including better use of systems and data.

Contribute to statutory reporting and year-end consolidation across 4-5 entities using Excel and Open Accounts.

Why work here?

You'll be part of an organisation that genuinely values its people-from the supportive, kind and collaborative culture to excellent benefits:

28 days annual leave (plus bank holidays)

Generous pension scheme and life cover

Access to two holiday homes for staff use

Study support for those completing their qualification

A flexible hybrid working model - three days in the office
This is a place where finance is respected, collaboration is key, and your ideas and input will be encouraged.

The ideal candidate will:

Be a qualified accountant (ACCA, CIMA, ACA) or finalist at Stage 3.

Have solid experience in management accounting and financial reporting (2-3 years+), ideally in a housing or commercial environment.

Be confident consolidating accounts and working with multi-entity structures.

Be a natural business partner - able to explain finance to non-finance staff, ask the right questions, and drive better decision-making.

Bring a solution-focused, change-ready attitude, with the confidence to challenge and improve the status quo.
