Job description

Property Finance Analyst

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Property Finance Analyst to join a successful and growing non-bank property finance business specialising in property development and investment finance.

The non-bank lending sector continues to grow as developers and investors seek flexible funding solutions outside the traditional banking sector. This role offers the opportunity to gain exposure to a broad range of property transactions, working alongside experienced professionals and contributing directly to lending and investment decisions.

The opportunity

You’ll work closely with senior decision-makers across the full life cycle of property transactions - from assessing new opportunities through to monitoring existing exposures.

• Building and maintaining detailed property development and investment financial models
• Analysing development feasibility, project costs, funding structures, cash flows and returns
• Assessing the underlying property, borrower and transaction to understand risk and downside scenarios
• Reviewing development budgets, valuations, sales evidence, debt structures and project assumptions
• Stress-testing transactions and identifying key sensitivities
• Preparing concise investment and credit analysis for senior decision-makers
• Monitoring existing loans and projects, identifying emerging risks and changes in performance
• Conducting market and comparable-property analysis
• Working with external advisers, valuers, developers and other stakeholders to validate assumptions
• Continuously improving analytical tools, models and processes

About You

The successful candidate will be highly analytical, commercially minded and comfortable working with a high degree of independence.

You’re likely to have:

• Strong financial modelling skills, ideally with experience building models from scratch rather than simply operating existing templates
• Excellent Excel skills and a strong understanding of financial statements, cash flow and investment returns
• An ability to understand property transactions and translate complex information into a clear financial view
• The confidence to challenge assumptions and ask the right questions
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• The ability to manage your own workload and make progress without needing constant direction
• A genuine interest in property, finance and investment

Experience in property finance, investment banking, corporate finance, funds management, transaction advisory, property development or a similar analytical environment would be highly relevant.
