About the position

?? Lead Africa's Trade Finance Revolution ??

Now Hiring: Head: Trade Finance

Are you ready to shape the future of Africa's trade and infrastructure landscape?

A leading African development finance institution, focused on accelerating sustainable infrastructure investment across the continent, is building a new Trade Finance function - and we're looking for a seasoned trailblazer to lead the charge.

This Role Is for You If...

  • You've led trade or structured commodity finance transactions - and know what a "deal that works" really looks like.
  • You're a strategic builder: processes, systems, governance? You've done it.
  • You've worked in complex, political environments across South Africa and the rest of Africa, and thrived.
  • You want to transform African trade - and you have the credibility, confidence, and commercial mind to make it happen.

You Will:

  • Launch and lead a pioneering Trade Finance function, from strategy to execution.
  • Structure funded and unfunded trade finance products for high-impact infrastructure projects.
  • Drive deals that support SMMEs, black-owned businesses, and unlock priority sectors and regions.

Are You the Right Fit? Ask Yourself:

  • Have I delivered multi-million trade finance deals across emerging markets?
  • Do I hold a postgrad qualification like a CA, CFA, MBA or MSc in Finance, Business, Economics or Engineering?
  • Am I able to negotiate and close with high-level decision-makers across public and private sectors?
  • Do I want to see my fingerprints on Africa's next wave of trade-led growth?

If you answered yes, this is your next move.

?? Interested?

Send us your latest CV with:

  • A short Executive Summary,
  • Your current/last and expected annual Total Cost to Company, and
  • Your notice period.

This is more than a job. It's your chance to architect Africa's trade transformation.
?? Apply now. Let's make impact, not just deals.

Desired Skills:

  • Business development and stakeholder management in the trade finance or similar environment.
  • Financial Modelling knowledge and application experience.

Desired Work Experience:

  • 5 to 10 years Other Finance

Desired Qualification Level:

  • Honours

About The Employer:
