M-KOPA Finance Business Partnering Manager Jobs in South Africa
M-KOPA Finance Business Partnering Manager Jobs in South Africa; This is a senior leadership position sitting within M‑KOPA's Group Finance Business Partnering function, reporting to the Group Head of Finance Business Partnering.
You'll lead a team of Finance Business Partners embedded across M‑KOPA's cost centres and operating markets — coaching them, developing their commercial capability, and setting the standard for what excellent partnering looks like at scale.
But this isn't a pure people management role. You'll also operate as senior Business Partner in your own right, providing strategic financial counsel to leaders across commercial, operations, and technology.
You'll challenge and support simultaneously — bringing rigorous financial analysis, scenario modelling, and forward‑looking insight to decisions that shape how this business grows and where it invests.
What Your Days Will Look Like
Run planning and budgeting cycles with your team, ensuring submissions across all cost centres are commercially grounded and defensible under scrutiny.
Develop performance frameworks — dashboards, KPIs, variance analysis — that drive genuine accountability rather than retrospective comfort.
Build business cases for strategic investments, new market initiatives, and product launches across M‑KOPA's footprint.
Translate financial insights into compelling narratives for non‑finance audiences.
Conduct coaching conversations and performance reviews that build careers, not just capabilities.
Create standardised best practices across markets so partnering quality is consistent.
What Makes This Role Different
Most finance leadership roles ask you to manage financial performance. This role asks you to shape it — across multiple markets, multiple business units, and a team of finance professionals who will take their cue from how you operate.
You
won’t be presenting to stakeholders who are passively interested. You’ll be partnering with Group‑level leadership, market GMs, commercial directors, and technology leads who expect finance to bring answers, not just analysis.
When your work contributes to financial decisions at M‑KOPA, you’re contributing to a business that is — in a very direct and measurable way — expanding economic access across Africa. That’s not a footnote to the role. It’s the reason it exists.
What You Bring
Qualified Chartered Accountant (CA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with a strong post‑qualification track record in Business Partnering, FP&A, or Commercial Finance — and demonstrable experience leading and developing finance teams.
Proven ability to partner with senior business stakeholders, translating financial complexity into clear strategic recommendations that influence decisions at the highest levels.
Extensive experience across budgeting, forecasting, management reporting, and financial modelling in complex, multi‑entity environments — with the commercial acumen to connect financial data to business performance drivers.
