- Provide service charge estimates for Right to Buy and new build sales; full and final settlement figures for buy backs and freehold enfranchisement cases; and information on planned/uninvoiced major works for inclusion in sellon packs.
- Assist in the preparation of County Court and Tribunal cases, and give evidence/witness statements if required.
- Attend residents' meetings/events and site visits relating to service charges.
- Optimise service delivery by being highly flexible, including working within matrix management
