This role sits at the intersection of finance, operations, strategy and commercial execution. The successful candidate will own the end-to-end financial performance of the South African business and its subsidiaries while helping shape decisions that drive sustainable growth, operational effectiveness, investment returns and cash generation.

The mandate The scale of this role extends well beyond financial reporting. You will be expected to: Share accountability for overall business performance, including profitability, balance sheet strength and cash flow outcomes.

Ensure a robust governance, risk and control environment that protects shareholder interests while enabling business growth. Lead and develop a high-performing finance function that builds capability, succession strength and organisational resilience. What success looks like Success in this role will be measured not only by the accuracy of forecasts or the quality of reporting, but by your ability to influence better decisions and create measurable business outcomes. You will bring clarity to complexity, challenge assumptions, help leaders navigate trade-offs and ensure the business is investing resources where they will generate the greatest value. You will be equally comfortable discussing commercial growth opportunities, operational performance, capital investment cases, risk exposure, talent development and long-term strategic priorities.
