Job Description:

We are seeking a high-caliber and technically rigorous Finance & Administration Manager to anchor the SMEP program in Kogi State. In the landscape of donor-funded healthcare, success is defined by "Audit-Proof Integrity", the ability to harmonize complex budget tracking with the strict compliance frameworks of multilateral donors. This role is designed for a Chartered Accountant with 10+ years of experience who can blend "Precision Grant Management" with the "Strategic Oversight" required to lead administrative and HR operations.

Your mission is to ensure "Zero-Risk Financial Management and Total Program Support." You will be the primary steward of the program’s fiscal health: responsible for QuickBooks integrity, statutory remittance sovereignty, and the mentorship of a multidisciplinary finance and admin team. If you possess "Global Fund Compliance Mastery," a data-driven approach to budget variances, and the leadership grit to manage a donor-funded ecosystem, we want you to drive our operational excellence.

• Grant Lifecycle Management: Oversee the end-to-end grant process, from cash projections and journal reviews to the rigorous documentation required for final grant closure.

2. Compliance & Fiduciary Governance

• Donor Policy Guardianship: Serve as the focal point for all compliance matters, ensuring that every transaction aligns with Famkris and donor-specific regulations (e.g., Global Fund).

• Audit Readiness: Maintain a "Perpetual Audit" state by ensuring all financial records are impeccably documented and filed for internal and external scrutiny.

• Working Capital Optimization: Conduct sophisticated aging analysis for receivables and payables, ensuring timely liquidation of staff advances and minimal outstanding vendor balances.

3. Systems, Admin & Human Capital Leadership

• QuickBooks Stewardship: Ensure the general ledger and trial balance are accurate through rigorous review of all postings and cost allocation policies.

• Administrative Architecture: Provide oversight for procurement and office operations, reviewing policies to improve internal controls and drive down operational costs.

• Talent Mentorship: Supervise and coach the finance and admin staff, conducting performance reviews and closing capacity gaps to ensure the team meets the high-pressure demands of the SMEP program.

Qualifications and Skills:

• Certification: Chartered Accountant qualification is essential (ICAN, ACCA, or equivalent).

• Experience: Minimum of 10 years of professional experience, with at least 7 years dedicated to donor-funded or multilateral projects in Africa.

• Technical Mastery: Strong proficiency in Microsoft Excel and QuickBooks. Demonstrated experience in auditing and reporting within donor compliance frameworks.
