Real Estate Finance Associate - Exeter Salary: Up to £83,000 DOE Hybrid Model: 2 days in the office, 3 days working remotely If you're someone who thrives on working on meaningful, structurally significant real estate and finance transactions, and you want your work to echo beyond your desk, this is the role where your impact matters. You'll join a forward-thinking international firm (with presence across the UK, Middle East and Far East) known for working on large-scale interdisciplinary residential portfolios, regens, and securitisation deals for institutions, registered providers, local authorities and investors.

Generous pension: minimum 5% contribution, matched by the firm. Performance bonuses that really matter: a structure that works for you Private medical insurance (and additional perks like dental, health cash plan, discounted gym, cinema tickets) Income protection and life assurance, plus holiday buy-and-sell and flexible leave options. Comprehensive wellbeing support including Employee Assistance Programme, mental health-first aiders, and firmwide wellbeing initiatives that have won industry recognition. A Culture That Cares: a powerful, employee-led ED&I network-they champion nine networks across gender, disability, ethnicity, LGBTQ+, wellbeing, and more, driving real change. Career development at the centre: annual appraisals, tailored development plans, training budgets and a genuine commitment to growing your career. Ready to Make a Difference?
