FINANCIAL CONTROLLER - R 70k pm - BELLVILLE, CPT

A diversified investment and development group with interests across property, construction, manufacturing, and hospitality is looking for a sharp and reliable Finance Manager to support the Group CFO. The business manages several operating entities under one holdings structure — each with its own unique operations, but one shared standard of excellence.

If you thrive in a fast-moving environment where no two days are the same and where your attention to detail really matters, this is a fantastic opportunity to join a dynamic, growing group that values accountability, quality, and teamwork.

About the Role

The Group CFO is looking for a strong, practical Finance Manager to take ownership of the day-to-day financial operations across the group. You’ll handle the detail that keeps the business running smoothly — consolidations, reconciliations, reporting, and process management — freeing up leadership to focus on growth and strategy.

This role will suit someone who is dependable, calm under pressure, and able to bring structure and accuracy into a complex, multi-entity environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Oversee full accounting and reporting functions for multiple entities within the group.
  
• Prepare monthly management accounts, cash flow forecasts, and variance reports.
  
• Manage reconciliations, journals, and month-end close with precision and consistency.
  
• Support the CFO with budgeting, audit preparation, and statutory compliance.
  
• Liaise with operational teams, property managers, and project leads to ensure financial information is accurate and timely.
  
• Maintain and strengthen internal controls and financial systems.
  
• Assist with intercompany transactions, loan accounts, and consolidations.
  
• Identify process gaps and help implement practical, efficient solutions.
  

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

• Relevant finance qualification – CIMA, SAIPA, or BCom with strong experience.
  
• Minimum 2-3 years’ experience in property, construction, or project-based environments.
  
• Excellent attention to detail and a structured, methodical approach.
  
• Comfortable working across multiple entities and handling complex reconciliations.
  
• Proactive, helpful, and easy to work with – a “get-things-done” attitude is key.
  
• Strong Excel and accounting systems skills.
  

Benefits

Why This Role?

• Be part of an established, growing group with interests across property, construction, manufacturing, and lifestyle brands.
  
• Work closely with a supportive, approachable Group CFO who values initiative and integrity.
  
• Centrally located near Tygervalley – modern offices, easy access, and a collaborative culture.
  
• Opportunity to learn the inner workings of a diverse holdings group and grow within it.
