Finance & Administration Manager

My client, a smaller house builder, are looking for a highly organised, hands‑on Finance & Administration Manager to join the team in their office at Burgess Hill.

This is a key role within a growing house building and property business, taking ownership of the day-to-day financial administration and helping ensure internal processes are followed consistently.

The role will include:

• Logging and processing supplier and subcontractor invoices
• Coding invoices to the correct company, project and cost centre
• Managing approval workflows with our Commercial team and Directors
• Preparing fortnightly payment runs
• CIS administration and returns
• VAT preparation across multiple companies
• Bank and account reconciliations
• Managing utilities across development sites and properties
• Administration for our rental portfolio
• Supplier statement reconciliations and queries
• Maintaining accurate financial records
• General business and director administration
• Helping maintain and chase aftercare, snagging and defect records through to closure

They are looking for someone who enjoys taking ownership, creating order and making sure things actually get followed through.

Experience with in construction, house building or property would be a major advantage, particularly if you are familiar with CIS, subcontractor accounts and project-based invoice coding
