Job Description    

We are a JSE-listed organisation operating in a high-volume, deadline-driven environment where governance, accuracy, and pace matter equally. An opportunity exists within our finance function for a Finance Manager who is comfortable owning outcomes, exercising judgement, and operating with accountability in a listed corporate environment.  This role is being shaped with the right person in mind. Our finance function is evolving, and the successful candidate will play a meaningful part in shaping what the finance function looks like as it evolves. This role is suited to a qualified CA(SA) who has trained at a large audit firm and is intentionally moving into a position that combines technical depth, commercial engagement, and operational ownership. If you are looking to build lasting depth and credibility within a listed group, rather than rotate quickly between roles - this is worth your attention. 

Key Responsibilities    

The Finance Manager will operate across multiple areas of the finance function, contributing to core financial reporting processes and broader commercial and operational activities. This is not a purely reporting role. It requires ownership, sound judgement, and the ability to engage meaningfully beyond the numbers.  As the structure of the finance function evolves, so too may the shape of this role. We are looking for someone who is adaptable, commercially grounded, and willing to grow into expanded responsibility as the organisation develops.

Key areas of involvement include (but are not limited to): 

Financial reporting and month-end / year-end processes within a listed company environment  Review and oversight of financial information to ensure accuracy, integrity, and compliance  Supporting external audit processes and engaging directly with auditors  Financial controls, governance, and adherence to regulatory and listing requirements  Providing financial analysis and insight to management and key stakeholders to support decision-making  Participation in ad hoc projects, process improvements, and cross-functional initiatives  Management, mentoring, and development of finance team members 

Qualifications and Experience    

Qualified CA(SA)  Articles completed at one of the large audit firms  Minimum of 2+ years post-articles experience  Experience within a listed company environment, or strong exposure to listed clients, would be advantageous  Demonstrated people, process, or workflow management experience  Solid grounding in financial reporting, controls, and professional standards  Demonstrated progression and increasing responsibility post-articles 

Competencies    

Comfortable with ambiguity — able to define and build a role, not just fill one Able to shift between detail and big-picture thinking without losing control of either Takes issues through to resolution rather than escalating prematurely Operates with discipline and accountability in a deadline-driven environment Engages confidently with both finance and non-finance stakeholders Pragmatic and commercially grounded, with a strong sense of professional judgement High level of integrity, accuracy, and respect for governance and controls

Deadline:21st August,2026
