Accounts Assistant

Egham, ENG, GB, United Kingdom

Job Description

We develop and run villages with the wow factor that enhance the lives of our owners, their family and their friends. Through our two brands, Mayfield Villages and Audley Villages, we offer stylish apartments and houses complete with the best facilities from bistros and bars, to health clubs and swimming pools. And, of course, exceptional service throughout. What's more, through our dedicated care teams we provide owners as well as customers out in the local community with the support they need to remain independent. It's retirement, but not as the UK has known it.



Our model means we not only build and develop the villages, we also run them. This puts us in control of all aspects of the villages and gives our owners the comfort that our priorities and values are aligned with theirs. Our people are at the core of our operational success, ensuring this alignment.



Audley has attracted equity investment from a wide range of sources, which, when combined with debt funding and recycled sales proceeds, has fuelled a dynamic site acquisition program.



This is a Fixed Term contract with possibility for extension.
