We're looking to recruit a FTC part-time, (5 days a week, half day AM, for a 12 month contract) Rents Transaction Assistant to
join our Finance team and play a key role in keeping our rent accounting accurate, efficient, and customer‑focused.
Reporting to the Rents Manager, this role primarily focuses on all daily rental income which must be completed accurately and

a great service by taking ownership, and proactively resolving, customer needs.
This is a fantastic opportunity to play a role in the transformation of the delivery of financial services to our customers within
agreed targets.
Where issues arise, you will be the first point of contact wherever possible. You’ll also share ideas, information, and best
practice with colleagues, so that we can continually improve our service and find creative solutions to problems.
About You:
It goes without saying that you’ll have fantastic customer service and financial administration skills to effectively manage a
wide range of rent account daily functions. You’ll also be able to work effectively with colleagues across the organisation.
It is preferred that the appointed candidate has experience of working in a rents role. We do also welcome someone that is
self-motivated, positive, works well under pressure, adaptable to changes, and embraces working as part of a team, also able to

to work both as a team and independently with the ability to adapt and learn quickly.
Key Responsibilities:
* Rent Accounting and Debit Control, inputting information into the rents system
* Processing all payment methods
* Processing tenant accounts adjustments
* Processing new rent re-lets
* To assist with the rent increase process
* Correspondence with tenants
* Maintaining the system
* Liaison with other sections of mhs homes and outside agencies
* Deputising for the Rents Transactions Manager in their absence
* Any other duties determined by the Rents Transactions manager as being appropriate
What’s essential:
* It's important that you've previously shown that you're capable of handling processes from start to finish.
* Working with and posting financial transactions
* Evidence of attention to detail and accuracy, when processing figures.
* Ability to work both as a team and independently with the ability to adapt and learn quickly.
* Ability to prioritise a busy workload.
* Self-motivated.
* Positive attitude.
* Ability to work under pressure.
* Evidence of intermediate excel skills.
* Excellent communication skills.
What’s desirable:
* Experience of working in rents accounting
* Experience of working within Housing
We offer:
* A performance based annual bonus + pension contributions matched up to 6%
* 28 days holiday + bank holidays and the option to buy/sell holiday
* Training & Development and opportunities for continuing professional development including regular tool box talks
* A great team of colleagues to work with
* Regular social and charitable events and a range of wellbeing activities
* Enhanced family leave policies
* A really competitive package of flexible employee benefits including a cycle to work scheme
* Free parking and disabled parking
* Access to two holiday homes in Norfolk and Dorset
At mhs homes we value equality, diversity and inclusion. We are wholeheartedly committed to the principle of equality of
opportunity, both as an employer and as a provider of services. We positively encourage applications from suitably qualified and
eligible candidates regardless of sex, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, religion or belief, marital
status, or pregnancy and maternity.
We’re a Disability Confident employer. This means if you tell us you have a disability and meet the minimum requirements for the
job, we’ll offer you an interview. We can be flexible when assessing people so everyone has the best opportunity to demonstrate
they can do the job.
Instructions for potential applicants: Please note we're using an anonymised recruitment process for this role. This means the
shortlisting panel will only see personal details if you're shortlisted for interview. Therefore, shortlisting will be done based
on your application. Please complete all sections fully and refer to the role profile when telling us about your skills and
