We are working with an international renewable energy company that develops and supplies solar and clean energy systems.

The company is expanding and needs a skilled Finance and Operations Lead to manage its financial function and the operational processes that support it, including logistics, imports, exports, and coordination across multiple entities.

You should have worked in a component sales or engineering environment, understand import and export regulations, and know how to manage finances and transactions across different countries and entities.

Key Responsibilities

  • Oversee all finance-related operations, including reporting, compliance, and financial controls.

  • Support leadership with financial insights and operational coordination across the group.

Requirements

  • CIMA or CGMA qualification (management accounting focus preferred).
  • At least five years of experience in a finance and operations role (preferably in component sales, engineering, or logistics).
  • Strong understanding of imports, exports, customs, and tax regulations (experience with Mauritius is an advantage).
  • Proven ability to manage cash flow, budgets, and the general ledger.
  • Hands‑on experience with financial systems and good attention to detail.
  • Based in South Africa (ideally Stellenbosch or surrounding areas).
  • What Makes This Role Great

  • Join a renewable energy company working across international markets in solar and clean energy systems.
  • Take ownership of finance and related operational processes that are key to the company's success.
  • Enjoy the flexibility of working remotely while collaborating with a small, global team.
  • Build your career within a growing business that values initiative and accountability.
