Moniepoint - Head, Product Control & Accounting

• ACA / ACCA (or equivalent) with 8+ years post-qualification experience, including Big 4 technical accounting or audit background • Strong working knowledge of IFRS 15 (revenue), IFRS 9 (financial instruments), and IFRS more broadly • Experience translating a product or system design into accounting treatment and GL structure, not just reviewing after the fact • Comfortable reading product specs and talking directly to engineers and product managers, not only to finance colleagues • Experience in payments, fintech, or banking, ideally with exposure to how transaction/ledger systems are built • Prior experience designing or restructuring a chart of accounts for a multi-product platform • Exposure to regulatory reporting requirements tied to product design (CBN, FCA, CBK or equivalent) • Experience working inside or alongside an agile product/engineering team • You can sit in a product spec review and immediately see where the accounting will break, and say so before launch, not after • You translate fluently between accountants and engineers without dumbing either side down • You default to documenting the treatment properly rather than leaving it as tribal knowledge • You're comfortable owning a chart of accounts as a living system, not a static reference document • You care as much about the control design as the accounting answer. A technically correct treatment with no control around it isn't good enough • What success looks like: • No product ships without a documented, signed-off accounting treatment and GL mapping • Chart of accounts stays clean and consistent as new products launch, with no post-hoc reclassification projects • Product/transaction data reconciles to the GL within agreed tolerances, with breaks resolved at source, not papered over monthly • Audit findings related to product accounting or control design trend toward zero • Product and Engineering see Finance as a design partner, not a late-stage blocker • 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.
