Assistant Manager – Finance & Accounts

Location: Nairobi, Kenya

Employment Type: Full-time

Reports to: Directors and CEO

About the Role

We’re growing, and you’ll help shape

how we manage the money behind the movement. Own the books, keep cash flow in

view, and turn the numbers into decisions that help the business move forward.

Expect start-up energy, hands-on

responsibility, and room to make things work better. You’ll work closely with

decision-makers, bring your ideas to the table, and see them put into practice.

Initiative matters. So does knowing when to ask, “Hang on, does that add up?”

What You’ll Take Charge Of

●

Zoho Books, reconciliations,

and timely month-end accounts.

●

Petty cash, payment controls,

budgets, and expenditure tracking.

●

Daily cash visibility,

reconciliations, and rolling cash-flow forecasts.

●

Corporate invoicing, customer

statements, and collections.

●

Ledgers, trial balance, and

profit and loss (P&L) reporting.

●

Tax and statutory compliance,

including submissions through iTax and other relevant government portals.

●

Coordination with KRA, external

accountants and auditors, banks, customers, and colleagues.

What You’ll Bring

●

At least five years of relevant

experience.

●

A completed CPA(K), ACCA, or

equivalent professional qualification.

●

Strong Excel skills and

practical experience with Kenyan tax and statutory compliance.

●

Proficiency in accounting

software; experience with Zoho Books is preferred.

●

A sense of ownership,

professional follow-through, and the confidence to question an entry even when

the spreadsheet looks perfectly respectable.

One office habit it will miss.

One habit it definitely won’t.

●

One piece of advice for its

replacement.

Then give us a six-word headline

describing how you work.

Spend no more than five minutes on the

challenge. Dry humour, warmth, or a straight face are all welcome. There is no

correct answer, and no design or video is needed.

submit it together with your CV privately via Jobs@yego.sg by 19

October 2026.
