Requirements

Strategic Financial Leadership

  • Co-own the Group's strategic and business plans with the Group MD/CEO, ensuring financial rigour underpins growth, capacity expansion, and diversification decisions.
  • Lead the development of the Group's medium- and long-term financial strategy, including capital structure, funding mix and dividend policy.
  • Advise the Board and Executive Committee on capital allocation, investment appraisal, pricing strategy and margin management across the product portfolio.
  • Evaluate and lead M&A, joint ventures, and strategic partnerships, including due diligence, valuation and post-transaction integration.

Financial Planning, Reporting & Analysis

  • Oversee annual budgeting, rolling forecasts and long-range financial planning across the Group and its subsidiaries.
  • Ensure timely, accurate and IFRS-compliant consolidated financial statements and management accounts for the Board, shareholders and regulators.
  • Drive commercial and manufacturing cost analytics, including cost-of-goods and input-cost sensitivity (palm oil, soybean, energy), to protect and improve margins.
  • Deliver Board-ready reporting packs, KPI dashboards and variance analysis that translate financial performance into actionable business insight.

Treasury, Funding & Capital Markets

  • Manage the Group's liquidity, banking relationships, working capital and cash flow, with particular attention to FX exposure given the Group's reliance on imported raw materials and equipment.
  • Structure and negotiate debt facilities, trade finance and supply-chain financing to support operations and expansion at competitive cost.
  • Lead engagement with banks, DFIs, rating agencies and, where relevant, capital markets, positioning Leading Edible Oils & Agro-Industrial Group for future financing rounds or a potential public listing.
  • Own the Group's hedging strategy for commodity price and currency risk.

Risk, Controls, Tax & Compliance

  • Establish and continuously strengthen the internal control framework, segregation of duties and financial governance across all Group entities.
  • Ensure full compliance with Nigerian tax legislation (FIRS, LIRS), statutory filings, and regulatory requirements from bodies including NAFDAC, SON and NESREA insofar as they carry financial or reporting implications.
  • Oversee enterprise risk management, insurance strategy and business continuity planning from a financial perspective.
  • Manage the external audit relationship and ensure timely resolution of audit findings and management letter points.

Organisational & People Leadership

  • Champion the adoption of modern ERP, financial systems and automation to improve the speed, accuracy and integrity of financial data.
  • Instil a culture of financial discipline, accountability and commercial ownership across the wider business, not only within the finance function.

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.
