• Use Excel/Google Sheets and ERP systems to record transactions, organize data and support reporting.
• Liaise with clients, suppliers and internal teams to resolve finance queries promptly.
• Flex across finance tasks as workload demands, including covering urgent requests during month-end, campaign peaks and event periods.
• Assist with ad-hoc finance tasks and presentations as required.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, or a related field, with a minimum of Second Class Honours (Upper Division).
• Minimum grade of B+ and above in Mathematics.
• CPA Part 2 passed at minimum (candidates with higher CPA sections are encouraged to apply).
• Hands-on experience in accounts receivable, reconciliations and basic financial reporting.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and/or Google Sheets.
• Experience with ERP or accounting software (e.g. QuickBooks) is a must.
• Working knowledge of Kenyan tax concepts (VAT, PAYE, WHT) and eTIMS.
• Flexible and adaptable: comfortable switching between tasks and priorities, and willing to adjust working hours when business needs require (e.g. month-end or event deadlines).
• Strong analytical skills, attention to detail and integrity.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills, including professional client follow-up.
• Ability to manage multiple tasks independently, meet deadlines and work as part of a team.
• Ability to start immediately is an added advantage.

What We Offer

• A full-time, 3-month contract in a fast-paced and exciting agency environment.
