## Notice

MTVH is seeking a Service Charge Audit partner to provide the below audit services to our home ownership and service charge (HO & SC) team on a 3-year (+1, +1 year) contract term. This team is responsible for calculating the reconciliation of service charge accounts for homeowners, by way of analysing the costs attributable to the blocks and schemes within their patch. The officers will approve invoices and budget costs eligible to be charged back to residents when reviewed on the system. These costs vary from bulk and individual invoices, budget costs from other service areas and Managing agent service charge demands. A review of section 20 consultation compliance for service contracts is also undertaken. Another part of this aspect of reconciliation is to ensure compliance with the lease covenants for service charging including apportionments and sinking fund contributions.
