• Manage the end-to-end commercial billing cycle, including calculating complex Gross Turnover (GTO) sales data, variable rental adjustments, and operational utilities recovery.

• Govern financial systems workflows (Oracle ERP) by accurately structuring tenant lease accounts, managing secure security deposit retrievals, and overseeing rent payment distributions.

• Lead the property financial reconciliation pipeline; execute bank reconciliations alongside Corporate Finance, manage GIRO funding operations, and build monthly accrual projection reports.

• Proactively monitor and manage tenancy arrears, leveraging data tracking to mitigate cash flow leakage and ensure optimal financial recovery.

Portfolio Intelligence & Data Governance:

• Custodian of the Master Property Database, ensuring data integrity, completeness, and timely updates for all leased and owned properties.

• Structure, maintain, and audit tenancy schedules, rent rolls, and tracking matrices to ensure clear transparency over the portfolio’s real estate performance.

• Synthesize complex property data to support regulatory reporting, statutory compliance requirements, and corporate spatial surveys (e.g., URA occupancy analysis).

Strategic Reporting, Taxation & Audit Support:

• Prepare comprehensive tenancy movement reports, occupancy trends, and rental yield portfolios to support annual property budgeting and strategic planning cycles.

• Coordinate data compilation for annual property asset valuations, manage property tax calculations, and support IRAS property tax evaluations.

Education & Certifications:

• Bachelor’s Degree in Real Estate, Business Administration, Data Analytics or a highly quantitative discipline, with minimum 2 years of relevant working experience. 

• Diploma holders with 3 - 5 years of relevant working experience are welcome to apply.

Requirements:

Analytical & Technical Capabilities:

• Advanced proficiency in MS Excel (e.g., XLOOKUP/VLOOKUP, Pivot Tables, financial data modeling) and PowerPoint is mandatory.

• Familiarity or strong interest in leveraging Business Intelligence (BI) tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau) to design automated, visual property performance dashboards is highly advantageous.

• Ability to quickly pick up and navigate institutional enterprise resource planning systems (ERP) like Oracle to manage financial lease governance.

Core Competencies:

• An exceptional level of attention to detail with an intrinsic pride in maintaining flawless data and financial accuracy.
