  • Work to ensure delivery against the SLAs (reporting and financial control activities) and build appropriate technical knowledge to enhance outcomes.
  • Assist with appraisals of assets sales within the portfolio, challenging assumptions, analysing financial models, undertaking due diligence.
  • Maintain documentation on agreed processes and actively identify and implement ways to improve processes, particularly in line with Grosvenor Property UK's environmental and sustainability goals.
