Our Finance Managers are hands-on and at the same time working closely with senior management and operational teams. You will act as a trusted finance business partner, providing insights that support growth, efficiency, and profitability in a dynamic shipping and logistics environment. You will also build, lead, and develop a high-performing finance team, fostering a culture of accountability, accuracy, and continuous improvement.

  • Solid understanding of tax, compliance, and audit processes in an international context.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with high attention to detail.
  • Proven ability to work independently and manage deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
  • Leadership experience, including supervising, coaching, or mentoring finance team members.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills.
  • Willingness to relocate to Africa and work on-site.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, or equivalent.
  • Prepare and review monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reports for management and stakeholders.
  • Lead the budgeting and forecasting process, including variance analysis and performance reporting.
  • Manage cash flow, working capital, and treasury activities, including banking relationships and FX exposure.
  • Ensure full compliance with accounting standards, tax regulations, and internal policies.
  • Coordinate with external auditors, tax advisors, and regulators.
  • Provide financial insights and decision support to operational and commercial teams to improve profitability and cost control.
  • Strengthen internal controls, financial processes, and reporting systems, driving efficiency and accuracy.
  • Build, lead, and develop the finance team, setting clear objectives and supporting professional development.
  • Support strategic initiatives, business planning, and investment analysis.

Job benefits

  • Opportunity to work with a well-established pan-African maritime & logistics company with strong regional presence.
  • Exposure to diverse projects across maritime, oil & gas, heavy-lift, warehousing and supply-chain sectors.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
