Job Description

As Group CFO, you’ll partner with the CEO and Board to lead all aspects of financial strategy, performance, and governance across a diverse, multi-country group. You’ll oversee finance, investment, and digital systems teams — bringing structure, insight, and investor confidence as the business scales.

 

What you’ll be responsible for:

  • Driving group-wide financial strategy, budgeting, and capital planning
  • Leading investor relations, fundraising (debt/equity), and capital structuring
  • Overseeing consolidated reporting, treasury, and tax compliance across jurisdictions
  • Championing digital transformation in finance — from ERP to analytics platforms
  • Embedding robust governance, internal controls, and risk management frameworks
  • Mentoring and developing finance teams across four countries

What we’re looking for:

  • CA(SA) or equivalent with 8+ years post-articles, including senior leadership roles
  • Proven CFO experience with Board-level influence and strategic oversight
  • Track record in asset-heavy, infrastructure, or multi-entity operations
  • Expertise in cross-border, multi-currency environments and fund finance
  • Hands-on experience with digital finance systems (NAV/Business Central, Power BI)
  • Strong communicator with a strategic mindset and high attention to detail

What’s in it for you:

  • Play a key role in scaling a regionally impactful renewable energy business
  • Hybrid working with multi-country collaboration and strategic influence
  • Supportive, entrepreneurial leadership team with a mission-driven focus
  • Be part of a business backed by institutional investors and poised for growth
