Remote
In 18 Months, You Will Have
- Built a clean, investor-ready view of the full operator financing portfolio — with clear metrics on deployment, repayment performance, and risk.
- Supported the closing of major financing facilities that directly fund hundreds of thousands of smallholder farmer loans.
- Established a reliable investor reporting cadence that gives our partners confidence in our data and in us.
- Own the end-to-end operator financing cycle — from credit structuring and loan disbursement to collections tracking, repayment analysis, and financial reporting on portfolio health.
- Prepare and maintain fiscal records, investment schedules, consolidated forecasts, and long-range financial plans with accuracy and discipline.
- Support active fundraising efforts: build and maintain data rooms, respond to due diligence requests, and prepare investor-facing financial models and decks.
Who We're Looking For:
- You are a finance professional who has spent 7–10 years close to the intersection of credit, capital, and relationships. You understand the Nigerian banking landscape deeply — how DFIs think, how SME financing works, and what it takes to build the trust of institutional investors.
- You do not want to manage someone else’s spreadsheet. You want to own the full picture — and you want the work to mean something. You are energised by complexity, not paralysed by it. You can translate a messy portfolio into a clean investor narrative. You know when to escalate and when to solve.
- Critically, you are someone who thinks about the people who come after you. You build systems, document your work, and mentor others — not because you are asked to, but because you understand that a function that depends on one person is a fragile function.
- Care about what the numbers mean in the real world: a 2% repayment shortfall is not just a data point, it is a farmer’s household.
- Take ownership without being asked — and raise issues without being told.
- Want to build something they are proud of, not just execute what they are handed.
- Thrive in ambiguity and build structure where none exists — rather than waiting for a perfect brief.
