Financial Controller – Retail (Head Office)

Job Description

This is a mid-level finance role with real scope to grow, one for an ambitious accountant who is ready to step beyond pure technical delivery and take ownership of a team, a set of systems, and a broader business partnership.

You’ll lead a small finance team, work closely with store and operational managers, and drive the kind of process and systems improvements that make a meaningful difference to how the business runs.

Systems, technology & process improvement

• Own the integrity of our financial systems (SAP and CISTECH) and actively look for smarter ways of working.
• Use AI and automation tools to eliminate repetitive manual tasks like invoice matching and deposit reconciliation. We want someone who sees technology as an ally, not a threat.

People leadership

• Lead, coach, and develop a small finance team.
• Set the standard for ownership and accountability, and create an environment where people grow.

Cross-functional collaboration

• Partner with store managers and operational teams to translate financial results into practical decisions.
• Be the finance voice that operations actually listens to.

What you’ll bring

• Degree in Accounting or Finance with 3–5 years’ relevant experience.
• Some experience leading or mentoring others (direct or indirect leadership).
• Solid grasp of South African tax and statutory requirements.
• Comfort with ERP systems (SAP advantageous) and advanced Excel.
• A curious, improvement-oriented mindset, you notice inefficiency and feel compelled to fix it.
• An openness to using modern tools and AI to automate routine work. Experience is a bonus, but the right attitude matters more.
• Retail or multi-site experience is a plus.

What’s on offer

• R40,000 – R50,000 CTC per month, depending on experience
• Company medical aid contribution
