- Conduct regular financial forecasting and variance analysis to stay within budget limits.
- Prepare detailed financial reports for donors, meeting specific requirements and timelines.
- Generate financial statements, variance reports, and fund utilization summaries for development projects and foundation activities.
- Manage grant financials, including setup, compliance, reporting, and close-out processes for both donor-funded projects and Qima Foundation grants.
- Support project and foundation managers in ensuring effective and compliant use of grant funds.
- Prepare and file annual charity accounts for Qima Foundation in compliance with regulatory standards.
- Collaborate with external auditors and legal advisors to ensure accuracy and compliance with charity commission requirements.
- Facilitate internal and external audits by organizing and maintaining accessible financial documentation for development projects and foundation activities.
- Assess and improve internal financial procedures to enhance efficiency and compliance for development projects and Qima Foundation.
- Strengthen controls to minimize risks and secure donor and foundation funds.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including compliance and foundation teams, to ensure financial alignment.
- Communicate complex financial data clearly to both financial and non-financial stakeholders.
What we're looking for:
A proactive team player who thrives in a dynamic, high-growth environment and is eager to contribute to building something extraordinary.
Someone who values accuracy and accountability, with a keen eye for detail.

Required
- Bachelor's degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field (ACA, CPA, ACCA preferred).
- 4-6 years of proven experience in project accounting, especially within donor-funded and charity environments.
- Strong understanding of financial management for international donors, such as USAID, GIZ.
- Proficiency in financial software and advanced Microsoft Excel skills.
- Exceptional attention to detail, organizational abilities, and analytical skills.
