We are deverellsmith: a global recruitment firm who operate across the full property lifecycle and have been leading the charge since 2006. We work with small agencies to world-renowned businesses, from housing developers to property managers and investors. We support the evolution of hiring strategies and internal capability shaping the way real estate recruits, attracts, and retains talent.
The acquisition, disposal and management of property is complicated and lengthy and the accounting and finance recruitment team play a critical part in the process. We are unlike other accountancy recruiters, we focus purely on accountancy and finance jobs for the property industry, utilising our strong reputation and brand to attract the very best property accountants in the market.
Accounts assistants play a crucial role providing administrative support to the accounts team. Your working hours will tend to be 9 to 6 and you will report to the senior management within the accounts team. The typical duties within an accounts assistant job include filing, typing, managing petty cash, basic booking, credit control and ensuring debtors are paid in time.
Working in a client accountant job within the property industry, you are entrusted with your property clients' money and the regulatory obligation that entails. You will be expected to prepare statements, accounts and reports, examine and analyse risk, advise on tax and compliance, manage expenditure, credit payroll and investments.
Your responsibilities as a finance controller is to manage the accounting operations, mitigating risk, producing periodic financial reports and ensuring compliance. We tend to find the general scope within finance controller jobs really varies depending on the size of the property company you work for and the support you have from your accounts team.

I am soooo happy that I got in to contact with Deverell Smith. I have been liasing with Alice Murray in particular and couldn't have asked for a better consultant. Having had really bad luck with recruiters over the years, Alice has been nothing but Amazing! She is lovely to speak to, extremely empathetic and really listened to me in order to find the perfect role; I am so impressed with the roles that have been put forward to me - all have been of great quality and amazing opportunities. I have been reflecting on my current position over the past few days and was thinking about how Alice had gotten

Deverell smith are top class. I had been in touch with Ryan every couple of months to discuss any exciting opportunities that we’re coming up. He contacted me with a new role that was coming up which was very exciting and a lot more money. He knew exactly who I was and what I wanted so perfectly matched up me and the job vacancy. His professionalism and knowledge of the industry is one of the best i have come across and would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a new job or wants to see what other opportunities there are. I also dealt with Denee in the latter stages of securing the job
