Cedar is working with a fast-growing fintech business that is transforming the real estate finance space through ethical, Shariah-compliant solutions.

As one of the first Islamic peer-to-peer property finance platforms directly authorised by the FCA, they are redefining how investors and developers connect, with transparency, impact, and inclusion at the core of their model.

• Owning day-to-day finance operations, reconciliations, and ad-hoc reporting
• Coordinating payroll input and liaising with HR
• Using the Xero ecosystem (including Dext, Mayday, and Fathom) to streamline processes
• Working closely with the CFO to shape scalable finance operations as the business grows

What We’re Looking For

• 2-3 years of experience in a management accounting role
• Strong knowledge of Xero; bonus points for experience with Dext, Mayday, or Fathom
• Exposure to payroll and HR coordination
• Highly organised, proactive, and adaptable to change
• Bonus: Familiarity with real estate finance or Islamic finance

Benefits
