5 months ago

Warrington, United Kingdom Your Housing Group Full time

Job Introduction
**So. What is this role exactly?**

This is an exciting, opportunity for **a Head of Finance or Financial Controller **to join YHG as our Head of Finance - Reporting & Controls to lead and manage our statutory financial reporting requirements.

**We are looking for a senior finance professional with knowledge of the Housing Sector,** that relishes having both a high level of autonomy, and the opportunity to work operationally with the teams within your remit to really own the numbers.

As one of the key senior leaders within the finance function, you will work in partnership with the CFO and other Heads of Finance to continue to develop our finance service into a high performing, best in class service, and ensure confidence in financial reporting through robust financial controls.

**What will I be responsible for doing?**

First and foremost, you will form a strong partnership with our newly appointed CFO, to work alongside the other Heads of Finance to build and lead a finance function that has the capability through its controls and processes to effectively report and utilise both qualitative and quantitative financial data to drive organisational performance and decision-making.

An effective communicator and leader, you will have primary responsibility and full oversight of financial controls, all statutory and regulatory accounting activities including rents and service charges for Your Housing Group. Also included within this role as you would expect; tax, audit, financial risk and business continuity planning, finance policies and procedures, and financial compliance. This will enable the delivery of accurate and consistent financial reporting.

**And what would make me stand out from the crowd?**

To be successful as our new **Head of Finance - Reporting & Controls**, you will be a confident decision maker a leader of people, and a strong influencer. You will need to have a keen future focus, be able to identify and implement both operational and policy improvements, ensuring these are adopted throughout the finance function as best practice.

Ideally you will also be an inspirational developer of people, with a genuine desire to further the skills and experience of the employees within your teams through effective communication, mentorship, and training.

**It genuinely is an exciting time to join our Finance Team, here at Your Housing Group**, as there are a lot of positive changes taking place following the appointment of our new CFO, including the further automation and digitisation of Financial systems, a new chart of accounts on the horizon, plus as this is a newly scoped position, it’s a role you can truly make your own and provides a real opportunity to help shape the change.

This role is ideally suited to someone who’s exceptional at building and maintaining senior stakeholder relationships, experienced in contributing to the development and enabling the delivery of the vision, ensuring full understanding, and engagement with these senior stakeholders and the teams they lead.

**And who are Your Housing Group?**

Your Housing Group is a registered social landlord helping people at every stage of life to live in quality homes they can afford.

As one of the North’s sector-leading landlords, we are proud to play our role in tackling the UK's housing crisis by continually reinvesting in our 29K properties and tailoring our services to meet the diverse needs of our customers. We also build over 1,000 new homes each year.

We’re an employer of choice, over **88% of colleagues here recommend us as a 'great place to work'**.

**That all sounds great, what’s in it for me?**

In return we are offering a salary **of £75,000-£85,000, plus a 9%-10% car allowance**, and 29 days annual leave (plus Bank Holidays)**, **but our employee offering provides far more than a competitive salary and car allowance.**

At #TeamYHG we measure performance on outputs and quality, not hours and minutes. We offer a flexible, homeworking culture where you’re trusted to get the job done. If you need time for an appointment, the school run or an exercise class, if it fits with business needs, we’re open to what works for you too. And when you need to collaborate with your team, you can visit Youggle House - our purpose-built collaboration, wellbeing, and social space.

On top of this, we’ll provide you with a great benefits package, including private medical insurance (Aviva), a contributory pension where we match whatever you choose to contribute (up to 8%), an advanced level Healthcare cash plan through BHSF, that doesn’t just provide dental and optician cashback but also health and wellbeing benefits (such as 24/7 GP Access, money back from prescriptions and alternative therapy treatments) and an amazing discount scheme that gives you access to half price cinema tickets, subsidised gym memberships and a huge range of discounts with some of the biggest high street and online names.
