Head of Finance manages capital deployment, debt/equity fundraising, and financial performance, requiring 10+ years finance experience (including senior leadership in lending/capital-intensive sectors). Full-time role in Nairobi. Job Summary We’re now looking for a commercially minded Head of Finance to help shape how the business funds, plans and delivers its next phase of growth. This is not a traditional finance leadership role. You’ll sit at the heart of the Mobility business, working closely with the Managing Director and Mobility Leadership Team to turn capital into growth, translate business performance into clear decisions, and build the financial foundations needed to scale. If you enjoy operating in a fast-growing, early-stage environment where finance is a strategic partner to the business — rather than a function sitting on the sidelines — this could be the opportunity for you. ### Responsibilities As Head of Finance, you’ll be responsible for making sure M-KOPA Mobility is financially resourced to grow, that capital is deployed efficiently, and that leadership and investors have a clear view of business performance they can trust and act on. You’ll have the opportunity to: - Shape capital strategy: Partner with the Managing Director on Mobility’s capital strategy, including funding sources, capital structure and the sequencing of future raises. You’ll own the Mobility financial model and lead the finance work supporting fundraising and investor due diligence. - Own performance and reporting: Give leadership a clear view of how the business is performing, what is driving results and where action is needed. You’ll lead business performance reviews and oversee the financial content of leadership and board reporting. - Drive financial planning: Own Mobility’s annual business plan, budget and financial targets, while building the reporting and insight needed to support better commercial decisions around pricing, retention economics and new market investment. - Lead treasury execution: Work across Mobility and Group Finance to forecast cash and funding requirements and ensure funding and payment execution supports the pace of growth. - Enable growth through procurement: Lead the Mobility procurement team, balancing speed and cost-efficiency with the governance and controls required within the wider M-KOPA Group. Your Role in Mobility - This is a central role serving the Mobility business and you’ll be a member of the Mobility Leadership Team. - You’ll be the first point of contact for Finance matters raised by the Managing Director, General Manager and Head of Portfolio, bringing financial insight into the decisions that shape the business. - You’ll also work closely with Group Finance, leveraging the Group’s accounting backbone while ensuring Mobility’s financial reporting, controls and records meet Group policies and Big 4 audit standards. In short: you’ll help build the financial engine that allows Mobility to scale. Requirements We’re looking for a senior finance leader who is comfortable combining strategic thinking with hands-on execution in a fast-moving environment. You’ll ideally bring: - 10+ years of finance experience, including senior leadership experience in a fast-growing, capital-intensive or lending business - Experience raising debt or equity, from financial modelling and investor materials through due diligence to close - Strong experience owning a business plan, budget and financial targets, and holding the business accountable to them - Experience leading financial reporting within a multi-entity or group environment, with strong governance and audit standards - Experience working with credit or risk teams to connect portfolio performance, priced risk and financial reporting - Experience leading teams and operating as a senior business partner, influencing decisions beyond Finance ### How to Apply Click here to apply ## Apply Use the canonical Prime Job Alerts page for full application instructions and source verification.
