Requirements
• 8-10+ years in FP&A, corporate finance, or investment banking, including experience building forecasting frameworks from scratch • Proven experience consolidating multi-entity, multi-currency forecasts and management accounts • Background in banking, fintech, or another regulated, fast-growth environment • Advanced financial modelling skills (Excel at architect level); comfortable owning a model spanning multiple entities and currenciesACA / ACCA / CFA or equivalent • Proven ability to operate effectively as a remote, senior finance leader across time zones and geographies • Experience in a high-growth African or emerging-markets fintech or bank • Prior exposure to Board and investor reporting at Group level • Familiarity with planning/consolidation tooling (NetSuite, Aleph, Pigment or similar) beyond Excel • Experience standing up FP&A functions or frameworks during a scale-up phase, including defining where a Group function ends and in-country teams begin • You think in frameworks. You build the system once, properly, rather than patching it every quarter • You're comfortable holding a multi-entity, multi-currency picture in your head and explaining it simply to the CFO and Board • You know the difference between setting the standard and doing the work. You'd rather make each market's FP&A team excellent within a shared framework than take their work off them • You push back on numbers that don't reconcile, and you don't sign off until they do • You're a strong people manager. You can direct analysts and get consistent, house-standard output from a small team • You communicate in writing the way you model: structured, precise, no padding • You operate well remotely: proactive, well-organised, comfortable driving a Group-wide process without being in the room • What success looks like • Group forecast is reconciled to actuals monthly, with variances explained within an agreed tolerance • Management, board and investor reporting are delivered on time, every cycle, without late-stage rework • Budget process runs to a fixed calendar with BU sign-off, with no material off-cycle changes • BU finance leads use the Group model and house standards as their working framework, not a parallel one • CFO and Group CEO treat the FP&A output as the single source of truth for decision-making • What to expect in the hiring process • A preliminary phone call with one of our recruiters. • Hiring Manager Interview • A Panel interview with existing Finance Leads • A behavioural and technical interview with a member of the Executive team.
Responsibilities
• Design and own the Group's FP&A framework: forecasting architecture, budget process, and management-reporting standards that every entity works to, including markets that maintain their own standalone FP&A team • Consolidate entity and BU-level forecasts, including those submitted by markets with their own standalone FP&A team, into a single Group P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow, with a working currency toggle and intercompany eliminations • Own the annual Group budget calendar and process: templates, timelines, challenge sessions, and Board approval, without taking over the local budget-building work each entity's own finance team already does • Produce the consolidated Group forecast (2026-28 and beyond), reconciled monthly to actuals, with a clear bridge explaining variances • Work closely with the Group Financial Controller so actuals, the consolidation, and the forecast reconcile cleanly month to month, and closing timelines support the reporting calendar • Run the monthly and quarterly reporting cycles at Group level: consolidated management accounts, Board packs, and investor-grade reporting • Build and maintain the Group's KPI and unit-economics framework, and ensure it is applied consistently across every entity's finance team, whether that entity has its own dedicated resource or is covered directly by this role • Partner with BU CFOs / finance leads (Moniepoint Nigeria, Moniepoint Kenya, Moniepoint Technologies, MonieWorld) as the standard-setter and consolidator, leaving day-to-day local execution with them • Lead scenario and sensitivity modelling for Group-level strategic decisions: new market entry, capital raises, new market expansion, licence applications etc. • Set and enforce FP&A style and modelling standards across the Group (structure, formatting, sign-off, version control) • Manage and develop the Group FP&A Analysts covering the subsidiaries and markets without a dedicated resource, plus central shared services
