SUMMARY:
ð¡ Connect Strategy with Numbers – Your Next CFO Move Starts Here! ð¥ You’ve mastered the numbers, now you’re ready to lead with them. If you’re a CA(SA) with a sharp commercial mind and the confidence to challenge, structure, and guide, then this is your opportunity to step into a role where finance drives strategy — not just reporting. Join a fast-scaling, innovation-led business that’s transforming the telecoms & ISP space — and be the financial voice that pushes the business forward.

POSITION INFO:
Our client, a trailblazing player in the South African ISP & Telecoms industry, is looking for a dynamic, results-oriented Chief Financial Officer (CFO) to join their leadership team in the southern suburbs of Cape Town (Newlands).

You won’t just “report the numbers” — you’ll shape the story behind them. In this role, you’ll sit alongside the CEO and executive leadership, offering financial strategy, challenges, and support in equal measure. You’ll lead a finance team of 4 direct reports and 15–20 indirect reports, bringing order to complexity and structure to ambition.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

R 1.2 – R 1.4 million CTC per annum
Executive-level exposure with real influence on business direction
Join a fast-paced, high-growth tech environment in one of SA’s most exciting industries
Lead with confidence: This business values strategic thinking, not rubber-stamping

ð§ Key Responsibilities:

Own the financial strategy and execution, from budgeting and forecasting to Board-level reporting
Guide, mentor and develop a multi-layered finance team (4 direct, 15–20 indirect)
Provide structured financial insight to key stakeholders – and push back when needed
Collaborate with leadership to support new product rollouts, cost optimisation, and scalable growth

ð Job Experience and Skills Required:

Education: CA(SA) – essential
Experience: 8–10 years post-articles experience in a senior finance leadership role
Industry experience in ISP, Telecoms, or Tech-driven businesses (preferred)
Strong team leadership, stakeholder engagement, and commercial insight
Ability to influence strategic decisions, create financial structures, and challenge constructively

ð Apply now to lead a finance function that isn’t just operational — it’s transformational.
