About the Role

It focuses on building a shared FP&A structure and consistent reporting.

This enables top-level visibility into performance and outlook for the Group.

• Produce the consolidated Group forecast (2026-28 and beyond), reconciled monthly to actuals, with a clear bridge explaining variances
• Work closely with the Group Financial Controller to ensure actuals, consolidation, and forecast reconcile cleanly month to month
• Run monthly and quarterly reporting cycles at Group level, including consolidated management accounts, Board packs, and investor-grade reporting
• Build and maintain the Group’s KPI and unit-economics framework, applied consistently across every entity’s finance team
• Partner with BU CFOs and finance leads across Moniepoint Nigeria, Moniepoint Kenya, Moniepoint Technologies, and MonieWorld as the standard-setter and consolidator
• Lead scenario and sensitivity modeling for Group-level strategic decisions, such as new market entry, capital raises, and license applications
• Set and enforce FP&A style and modeling standards across the Group

About You

The ideal candidate thinks in frameworks, building systems properly rather than patching them quarterly.

They understand the difference between setting the standard and doing the work.

Additionally, they push back on numbers that don’t reconcile and are strong people managers who communicate with structure and precision. They operate well remotely—proactive, organized, and capable of driving a Group-wide process without being in the room, suitable for a Head, Group FP&A Remote Job.

• A preliminary phone call with a recruiter
