ENRA is a rapidly growing and highly profitable specialist property finance group. The Group is expected to achieve record EBITDA of circa 63m in 2025 with AUM of 3.1bn spread across 6 diversified lending products as well as a market-leading broking division. The Group is led by an experienced and entrepreneurial expective team and supported by one of the largest fund managers as a key investor.

Having completed a major corporate transaction in 2022 the Group is now mid way through its next 5-year plan aiming to grow AUM to >8bn and EBITDA to 140m. In line with these plans the Finance Dept is also executing a strategic and digital transformation programme to right size its capabilities for the planned growth. A central objective of this strategy has been to enhance the existing FP&A capability.

The finance team of 21 is currently organized on a product basis with dedicated teams responsible for short-term lending term lending commercial lending broking group functions and FP&A.
