We are seeking a results-driven Local After-Sales Finance Manager to oversee the full financial operations of three automotive after-sales service centers in Nigeria.

Cash & Banking Oversight

- Regulate cash collections, petty cash, and deposit schedules; conduct periodic cash counts to eliminate misappropriation risks and ensure book-to-bank alignment.
Financial Reporting & Audit Support

- Support internal and external audits by maintaining complete financial records, supporting documents, and approval trails; provide requested documentation within 24 hours.
Team Management & Internal Controls
