Moko Home + Living Finance and Administration Manager Jobs in Nairobi, Kenya



Moko Home + Living is a growing company bursting with innovation, creativity and passion. Our customers dream of a better night’s sleep, a welcoming place to host their guests, a fun and safe place for their children to play.


But they tell us this isn’t easy – they have to settle for low-quality furnishings or break the bank. Join us in building the products, the brand and the network to put quality living within everyone’s reach. Here’s what our team has accomplished in the few years since our founding:


Reached over 100,000 Kenyan homes with our products · Attracted global investment to continue fuelling our growth and vision
Supported the growth of over 200 small furniture businesses across the country · Grown from a start-up to mid-sized company


Moko’s Finance and Administration Manager supports all of our teams as we work to put a smile on the faces of millions of customers. This role is about leading our accounting, managing processes for serving our customers and employees, collecting and sharing data needed for key decision-making and helping us make the best use of our resources.


Our perfect match is just as excited about crunching numbers and improving financial controls as coaching a junior accountant through a new reconciliation or working with our production coordinator to manage overtime more effectively.
