Finance Administrator

Company: GGEM Farming

Location: Nkhotakota, Malawi

Job Type: Full Time

About

Be the trusted financial partner behind a fast-growing, technology-enabled agricultural enterprise.

This is not a purely transactional finance role. You'll sit at the intersection of finance, budgets, procurement, sales and operations, working alongside departmental leads to help them plan spending, spot problems early and make better financial decisions. It suits someone who enjoys working with people as much as numbers.

What you'll do

  • Departmental budgets & partnership
    Support budgeting, track budget vs actual, and flag overspend or pressures before they become problems.
  • Disbursement Requests (DRs)
    Own day-to-day DR review: approved budget, correct coding, documentation, timely processing and escalation.
  • Procurement & reconciliation
    Reconcile purchases to DRs and budgets, compare suppliers and find value-for-money and cost savings.
  • Sales & revenue verification
    Reconcile kiosk and hub sales against stock dispatched and cash received; follow up discrepancies.
  • Month-end, audit & systems
    Deliver reconciliations, explain variances, keep records audit-ready and work through Odoo rather than parallel spreadsheets.

EVERY EXPENSE, FULLY TRACEABLE
Budget - DR - Approval - Payment - Reconciliation - Reporting

80% - Core financial control & partnership 20%
The other 20%: improving how GGEM works through process improvement, automation, cost savings and financial literacy across teams.

What you'll bring

  • Experience in finance, accounting, budgeting, procurement or a related field
  • Strong numerical and analytical skills, with experience in reconciliations and reporting
  • Attention to detail without losing sight of the bigger operational picture
  • Confidence with spreadsheets, digital finance systems and CRM/ERP workflows (e.g. Odoo)
  • Clear written and verbal communication with colleagues at every level, and with suppliers
  • The confidence to ask questions and respectfully challenge information that doesn't add up
  • Curiosity about technology and automation, and ideas for better ways of working
  • Willingness to maintain a regular on-site presence in the Nkhotakota area

HOW YOU WORK

Collaborative Transparent Accountable

Curious Organised Proactive Candid

Independent

We place significant weight on attitude, judgement and working style. We want someone who notices a discrepancy and asks why, and who helps Finance become a partner, not just an approval function.
