About the position

Are you a qualified CA(SA) ready to lead technical projects and influence group-level financial reporting?

Is this you?

You're someone who thrives in a complex, fast-paced financial environment. Detail-focused, proactive and solutions-driven, you don't just work through problems, you anticipate them. You enjoy technical challenges, stay ahead of evolving IFRS standards, and communicate your insights clearly. People trust your technical acumen and your calm under pressure. You're highly organised, driven by accuracy, and excel at collaborating with cross-functional teams and auditors alike.

What you'll be doing (and why you'll enjoy it)

You'll own the month-end and year-end close for multiple entities, prepare statutory accounts under IFRS, and provide financial data to support strategic decision-making across the Group. Alongside this, you'll lead technical accounting work for key initiatives such as acquisitions and disposals, prepare technical papers for auditors and Directors, and stay on top of IFRS developments. Your role will be pivotal in shaping the financial control framework and supporting the consolidation function.

Where you'll be doing it

You'll be joining a respected international financial services group with a reputation for excellence and innovation. With operations across jurisdictions, the company provides a high-performing and collaborative culture, driven by technical rigour and professional development. Expect cross-border exposure and the chance to contribute to impactful projects in a dynamic finance team.

What you'll need

You're a CA(SA) with strong technical accounting knowledge and experience in group reporting, ideally within the financial services sector. You understand intercompany transactions and international tax complexities. Advanced Excel skills are essential, and experience with Microsoft Business Central and Power BI would be an advantage. You're confident producing technical accounting papers and have experience interacting with senior stakeholders and auditors.

What you'll get

A market-related salary, meaningful exposure to high-level group finance, and the chance to lead technical projects that shape how finance operates across the business. You'll be part of a professional, well-resourced team that values accuracy, agility and growth.
