This is an established, proudly South African manufacturing company with over 60 years of success and a strong reputation in their specialised field. With exciting expansion underway - including new global partnerships - the business is entering a dynamic growth phase.

What’s the role about?
This is more than a traditional finance role. You’ll act as a true business partner - bringing structure, insight, and commercial thinking to support decision-making across the organisation. You’ll lead a capable team while staying close to the detail, helping the business scale effectively.

Key responsibilities:

  • Lead and develop a multi-functional finance team
  • Deliver accurate, timely reporting and meaningful business insights
  • Drive budgeting, forecasting, and cashflow management
  • Strengthen internal controls and optimise financial processes
  • Partner with operational teams to improve performance and profitability
  • Oversee compliance, audit processes, and financial systems

What we’re looking for:

  • CA(SA) with 2 years PQE OR CIMA / SAIPA / Honours qualified with 5 years experience
  • Strong commercial acumen with a hands-on mindset
  • Proven leadership experience in a finance environment
  • Ability to navigate complex team dynamics with confidence and empathy
  • Decisive, principled, and grounded in your approach
  • Experience in manufacturing or a product-based environment is advantageous

What’s in it for you:

  • High-impact role with real influence across the business
  • Exposure to growth initiatives and international partnerships
  • Stable, reputable environment with a strong leadership team
  • Competitive package with medical aid and provident fund

If you're someone who combines sharp thinking with practical execution - and you’re not afraid to roll up your sleeves - this could be the opportunity for you.
