Your work will be instrumental in managing project-level risk, validating cost structures, coordinating disbursements and ensuring reporting accuracy across both borrower and investor-facing transactions. This is a hands-on, high-visibility position in a fast-moving tier-one lending environment.

  • Assess builder quotes, subcontractor invoices and tender breakdowns to support funding accuracy

  • Monitor variations, retentions and claims in alignment with QS reporting and loan covenants

  • Maintain and update live loan costing models throughout the project lifecycle

Loan Operations:

  • Coordinate and prepare capital call notices and drawdown documentation

  • Manage construction loan drawdowns, ensuring all funding conditions are satisfied

  • Liaise with QS, Credit and Legal teams to validate certified progress and disbursements

  • Monitor project timelines and identify delays, cost overruns or non-compliant expenditure

  • Track loan utilisation, undrawn balances and contingency usage with accurate reporting

  • Record and reconcile monthly interest received from borrowers

  • Record, reconcile and pay monthly interest to investors

  • Prepare annual tax statements to investors

What You'll Need:

  • Minimum 5 years' experience in construction finance, project accounting or NB lending

  • Deep understanding of construction costings, progress claims and builder payments

  • Expertise in drawdown processes, trust accounting and QS-led cost assessments

  • Advanced Excel and financial modelling skills; experience with loan/fund platforms preferred

  • Strong commercial acumen and practical understanding of private credit and first mortgage structures

  • Exceptional attention to detail, organisation, and communication across stakeholders

  • CA/CPA qualification preferred

Why Join CCG?
