Head, Group FP&A

Responsibilities:

• Design and own the Group's FP&A framework: forecasting architecture, budget process, and management-reporting standards that every entity works to, including markets that maintain their own standalone FP&A team
• Consolidate entity and BU-level forecasts, including those submitted by markets with their own standalone FP&A team, into a single Group P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow, with a working currency toggle and intercompany eliminations
• Own the annual Group budget calendar and process: templates, timelines, challenge sessions, and Board approval, without taking over the local budget-building work each entity's own finance team already does
• Produce the consolidated Group forecast (2026-28 and beyond), reconciled monthly to actuals, with a clear bridge explaining variances
• Work closely with the Group Financial Controller so actuals, the consolidation, and the forecast reconcile cleanly month to month, and closing timelines support the reporting calendar
• Run the monthly and quarterly reporting cycles at Group level: consolidated management accounts, Board packs, and investor-grade reporting
• Build and maintain the Group's KPI and unit-economics framework, and ensure it is applied consistently across every entity's finance team, whether that entity has its own dedicated resource or is covered directly by this role
• Partner with BU CFOs / finance leads (Moniepoint Nigeria, Moniepoint Kenya, Moniepoint Technologies, MonieWorld) as the standard-setter and consolidator, leaving day-to-day local execution with them
• Lead scenario and sensitivity modelling for Group-level strategic decisions: new market entry, capital raises, new market expansion, licence applications etc.
• Set and enforce FP&A style and modelling standards across the Group (structure, formatting, sign-off, version control)
• Manage and develop the Group FP&A Analysts covering the subsidiaries and markets without a dedicated resource, plus central shared services

Candidate requirements:

• 8-10+ years in FP&A, corporate finance, or investment banking, including experience building forecasting frameworks from scratch
• Proven experience consolidating multi-entity, multi-currency forecasts and management accounts
• Background in banking, fintech, or another regulated, fast-growth environment
• Advanced financial modelling skills (Excel at architect level); comfortable owning a model spanning multiple entities and currencies ACA / ACCA / CFA or equivalent
• Proven ability to operate effectively as a remote, senior finance leader across time zones and geographies

Preffered Qualifications

• Experience in a high-growth African or emerging-markets fintech or bank
• Prior exposure to Board and investor reporting at Group level
• Familiarity with planning/consolidation tooling (NetSuite, Aleph, Pigment or similar) beyond Excel
• Experience standing up FP&A functions or frameworks during a scale-up phase, including defining where a Group function ends and in-country teams begin
