SUMMARY:

Operational Finance Managers - Let's Connect. I’m looking to connect with experienced Finance Managers in Gauteng who thrive in operational, fast-moving environments.

POSITION INFO:

If your strengths lie in hands-on finance, managing the daily engine room, and partnering closely with operations to improve performance, control risk, and drive efficiency, I’d like to add you to my talent network for upcoming opportunities.

I’m connecting with Finance Managers who understand that real impact happens on the ground: in processing, controls, reconciliations, cash flow, stock, costing, operational reporting, and branch or site-level oversight.

Typical Operational Responsibilities:

Oversee day-to-day finance operations across debtors, creditors, cashbook and GL.
Ensure accurate and timely month-end close, reconciliations, and journals.
Conduct detailed variance analysis, operational reporting, and performance tracking.
Partner with operations, logistics, warehouses, or branches to resolve issues and improve processes.
Strengthen internal controls and ensure compliance at an operational level.
Support stock management, stock counts, cost control and margin analysis.
Manage cash flow, working capital, and short-term financial planning.
Lead, guide and mentor finance teams to ensure accuracy and consistency.
Implement process improvements, system enhancements, and automation where possible.
Review and authorise payments, supplier reconciliations, and operational spend.
Prepare audit packs and engage with Internal/External Auditors.

Skills and Experience I’m Looking For:

BCom Accounting / Finance (essential).
CA(SA) or strong commercial Finance Manager background.
5–10 years’ experience in operational finance environments (FMCG, logistics, manufacturing, services, and distribution ideal).
Strong understanding of controls, reconciliations, compliance, and high-volume processing.
Solid ERP system experience and advanced Excel skills.
Confident, steady communicator with the ability to engage with operational teams at all levels.
Comfortable managing multiple sites, branches or regions.
Hands-on, detail-focused and solutions-driven.

Let's connect!
