Financial Analysis Manager Regulator of Social Housing

We are looking for two Financial Analysis Managers to join us at the Regulator of Social Housing.

With a career at RSH, you'll be joining an organisation that gives you the opportunity to make a difference to people's lives, regulating a sector that houses 4 million people across England.

Working as part of our Regulatory Engagement Directorate, you will support the delivery of effective regulation of landlords to ensure they are well run and financially viable. Our regulation continues to drive social landlords to improve the safety and quality of homes and engage with tenants in service delivery.

The role:

As a Financial Analysis Manager, you will assess and articulate the financial risks faced by individual social landlords. These roles offer a unique opportunity for individuals to apply their skills and understanding in a varied environment, engaging directly with landlords, anticipating risks, and working with senior colleagues on next steps.

You will help build a clear understanding of the financial, economic, and governance risks that large social landlords face, including external economic impacts and treasury considerations. Working on a portfolio of providers, you will analyze financial forecasts, business plans, and other data to develop robust assessments of landlords' financial strength.

Supported by senior financial regulators, these roles offer a great opportunity to develop strong analytical skills in a team committed to collaborative working, knowledge sharing, and social value.

About you:

The successful candidate will have a financial background, a relevant professional qualification, and excellent analytical skills with sound professional judgment. You should be able to appraise financial performance and business strategy, identifying key issues and drawing conclusions. An understanding of regulation, governance, and risk management principles is desirable.
