• Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) with 5+ years in a senior finance role.
• Proven experience within the construction or real estate sector.
• Strong commercial acumen and a track record of supporting large-scale infrastructure or property programmes.
• Excellent analytical skills, attention to detail, and confidence working across disciplines.
• Strong communicator with the ability to influence at all levels.
• ERP experience and advanced Excel skills.
• Background in life sciences, healthcare, or R&D property development.
• Familiarity with capital project accounting in high-growth environments.

Why Join This Team?

• Contribute to a bold initiative tackling global issues across health, sustainability, and technology—where science meets real-world impact.
• Backed by substantial investment, this organisation is well-positioned to deliver high-value infrastructure at scale.
• Be part of Oxford’s thriving property and science sector, delivering landmark projects with long-term value.
