  • Regulatory Compliance: Ensure compliance with local and international accounting standards, tax regulations, and corporate governance requirements.
  • Collaboration: Work closely with cross-functional teams, including Operations, IT, and Legal, to streamline integration efforts.
  • Stakeholder Management: Act as a key point of contact for private equity sponsors, external auditors, and internal stakeholders.
  • Change Management: Support cultural and operational alignment of newly integrated teams, fostering a cohesive financial management approach.


Qualifications and Experience:

  • Proven experience in a Finance Controller or similar role, within a private equity-backed environment.
  • Extensive knowledge of post-acquisition financial integration and consolidation.
  • Strong understanding of financial reporting standards (e.g., IFRS, GAAP).
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills with a focus on delivering actionable insights.
  • Experience in FMCG or similar fast-paced, high-growth industries is highly desirable.
  • Exceptional communication and leadership skills, with the ability to influence at all levels of the organization.
