Finance Manager

Overview

As Financial Manager, you will be the financial steward of our lodge operations, ensuring accurate reporting, sound controls, and strategic oversight. This hybrid role offers flexibility in working remotely, while requiring on-site presence approximately twice a week to support local teams, ensure compliance, and stay close to operations.

The ideal candidate is technically strong, detail-oriented, and capable of leading a small finance function. Experience in the hospitality or luxury tourism sector is advantageous, but a passion for working with purpose — supporting conservation, local empowerment, and sustainable tourism — is essential.

About the Mantis Collection : Mantis is a boutique hospitality group that was founded by conservationist Adrian Gardiner in 2000, with its main focus predominantly in Africa and the Middle East. Mantis grew from Adrian’s vision to restore and rewild degraded farmland which he developed into a widely acclaimed Private Game Reserve. This was the first private game reserve in the Eastern Cape and the beginning of eco-tourism in a poverty-stricken province that had few opportunities outside of commercial farming. Adrian and the Mantis team successfully created a place where man and nature could co-exist sustainably. From this initial success, the Mantis model was then developed worldwide, understanding that consumers could use the Mantis portfolio as a mark of quality, consistency and character. Today the diverse portfolio of handpicked properties links up to create travel journeys, which offer guests the opportunity to experience the essence of the location in a setting of tailored luxury. Rooted in conservation, Mantis pursues sustainable business practices and develops tourism products that are respectful of the environment and communities in which they operate.
