About Client Financial Management The Financial Management function is responsible for the delivery of all financial management activity undertaken for our clients within the JLL Property Management (PM) business. The function comprises five core teams, each providing critical services to our clients and our business: Accounts Receivable (c.60 UK colleagues, supported by c. 25 JBS colleagues) Treasury & Control (10 UK colleagues, c.50 JBS colleagues) Accounts Payable (c. 70 JBS colleagues only) Property Accounting, including Fund Accounting (c. 150 UK colleagues, supported by c. 40 JBS colleagues) – formerly Client Accounts Supplier Engagement Team (c. 15 UK colleagues working with the JBS AP colleagues) The primary focus of the services is for the UK Property Management business, but the teams also support the broader EMEA Property Management business, most notably in Ireland. The role will have direct line management responsibility for the UK colleagues listed above. These teams deliver all financial accounting and operational services for our clients, including collection of income due from occupiers, payment and reconciliation of service charges, treasury management, fund administration, supplier payment and engagement, and all associated financial accounting activity. Combined, the function operates across the UK and India (JBS), with significant scale and scope across our client portfolio. Given the inherently high risk within the PM business and the requirement for compliance with RICS and HMRC regulation, adherence to documented controls and procedures is critical. An annual ISAE 3402 third-party controls assurance report setting out the key controls important to our clients evidences this compliance.
