Finance Manager — M-KOPA Nigeria
You've built the controls. You've closed the books. You've explained the numbers to boards who didn't want to hear them. But have you ever built financial rigor into a business that's simultaneously scaling, lending, and putting life-changing assets into the hands of millions of customers who've never had access to credit before?
That's the question at the centre of this role.
M-KOPA Nigeria is a core market for M-KOPA — sub-Saharan Africa's largest asset fintech. We finance smartphones, solar power systems, and other essential assets for customers who pay daily via mobile money, building credit history and unlocking opportunity along the way. Nigeria is one of the fastest-growing and most strategically important markets in M-KOPA's footprint, with a large and expanding customer base and loan book.
Why this matters right now
M-KOPA has crossed 10 million customers, unlocked more than $2 billion in credit, and is on a deliberate path to 10 million more. Nigeria is a critical piece of that next chapter — a market scaling fast, with its own reporting cycle, its own regulatory environment, and its own commercial dynamics. That's not a legacy structure: it's a business being built and refined in real time, with real customers, real repayment behaviour, and real IFRS obligations.
We are hiring a Finance Manager to own the financial management of the Nigeria business — not just to maintain a finance function, but to strengthen and scale one.
What this role actually is
This is a hands-on, high-ownership position. You will be a finance lead for the Nigeria entity — responsible for the monthly management reporting pack, executive commentary, the IFRS 9 Expected Credit Loss model, treasury and compliance matters, and the unit economics that inform commercial decisions across the market.
You'll manage the end-to-end monthly close: accruals, prepayments, intercompany, depreciation, FX. You'll produce variance analysis that isolates market-specific effects from one-off items. You'll monitor the loan book, analyse repayment behaviour by cohort, and own provisioning and bad debt trends. You'll support statutory and regulatory reporting, manage documentation for funding and compliance processes, and support due diligence as needed.
And then — because this is Nigeria — you'll also be a commercial partner. You'll sit alongside the commercial team to interrogate unit economics, model new product launches, assess pricing and supply decisions, and build the financial cases for leadership and board discussions.
