Job Description

Job Summary About the Role:
A leading player in the property and real estate development space is looking for a Financial Controller to bring order, insight, and a touch of magic to their multi-entity finance world. This is not a back-office box-ticking job -- this is where financial leadership and strategic thinking meet spreadsheets and real-world results.
You'll report to the Group Financial Manager and take full ownership of financial control and compliance across the group. If you're looking for a role where your decisions actually shape the business -- this is it.
What You'll Be Doing:

• Running the full financial function across a group of companies
• Keeping everything above board -- from compliance to external audits
• Managing reconciliations like a pro: bank, debtors, creditors, intercompany, you name it
• Implementing and enforcing finance policies and best practices
• Preparing annual financial statements that actually make sense
• Delivering insightful monthly management reports to the team and board
• Supporting annual budgeting and long-term financial planning
• Producing detailed, forward-looking cash flow forecasts
• Reviewing actuals vs budgets -- and helping steer the ship when needed
• Assisting with tax calculations (yes, even the provisional stuff)
• Being the finance go-to when "just one more thing" pops up (because it always does)

What You'll Need to Succeed:

• CA(SA) accreditation is essential
• Newly Qualified CA(SA) or 1 year's post article experience.
• Strong leadership skills and a hands-on approach
• Experience with multi-entity reporting (bonus if in real estate or property)
• Deep knowledge of IFRS, tax regs, and South African financial compliance
