Job description

Our client is on a mission to democratize dependable transportation across Africa and beyond. We are searching for a Head of Finance , the strategic architect who will fuel their growth engine.

For over eight years, they have used technology to transform urban mobility. Now, we need a financial leader who can balance the precision of "mission control" with the vision of a "co-pilot". This isn't just about balancing books; it’s about capital raising, debt structuring, and building the financial frameworks that allow a high-growth startup to scale without losing its footing.

Who are you?

  • You are a Strategic Storyteller. You don’t just see spreadsheets; you see the narrative of growth and know how to pitch it to investors and board members.
  • You thrive in high-velocity environments. You aren't intimidated by the unique financial challenges of a scaling startup; you’re excited to solve them.
  • You are a Master of Capital. You understand debt structures and capital allocation like the back of your hand and know how to optimize every dollar.
  • You believe in Governance as a Catalyst. You don’t see controls as "red tape"; you see them as the safety harness that allows the company to move faster.
  • You don’t just manage a team; you build the systems, processes, and culture that define financial excellence.

Your Responsibilities…

Financial Strategy & Capital Raising

  • You will serve as the CEO’s right hand, executing a financial strategy that aligns perfectly with their global scaling objectives.
  • You will lead the charge on future funding rounds—from building complex financial models to managing high-stakes investor relations.
  • You will manage the "mission control" of capital allocation, ensuring that their cash flow and scenario planning are always ahead of the curve.
  • FP&A and Operational Excellence

  • You will lead the budgeting and forecasting processes, turning raw data into actionable insights that guide executive decision-making.
  • You will build and lead a high-performing finance team, establishing gold-standard controls for accounting, tax, and global compliance.
  • You will implement the robust systems needed for reporting and expense management, ensuring that "if it wasn’t documented, it didn’t happen."
  • Governance & Risk Management

  • You will implement risk management strategies that safeguard the company’s assets as we enter new, competitive markets.
  • You will ensure meticulous adherence to all regulatory and financial requirements, keeping Shuttlers audit-ready and beyond reproach.
  • What Success looks like…

  • Successfully navigating funding rounds and optimizing debt structures to support rapid expansion.
  • Establishing a rhythm of business where monthly and quarterly reporting is seamless and insight-heavy.
  • Achieving high marks for financial integrity and seeing your strategic advice translate into sustainable, long-term growth.
  • Building a finance function that is so robust it can scale from Lagos to any city in the world without a hitch.
  • To be considered for this role you should have…

  • 8+ years in finance leadership, with at least 3+ years as a Head of Finance in a startup or high-growth tech environment.
  • A proven track record of successfully raising capital and managing complex investor relations.
  • Deep expertise in FP&A, cash flow management, and financial reporting. (Familiarity with SaaS or mobility metrics is a significant plus).
  • A CPA, CFA, or MBA in Finance is highly preferred.
  • You can explain complex financial jargon to non-finance stakeholders and thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
  • The Goodies…

  • Pioneer Status : Be a key architect in the financial future of a company redefining mobility for an entire continent.
  • Strategic Autonomy : A senior leadership role where your input directly shapes the company’s global trajectory.
  • High-Growth Impact : Work in a collaborative, driven environment where your work helps thousands of professionals commute safely and comfortably.
  • Flexibility : A hybrid work environment that values output and strategic thinking over "clock-in" hours.
  • Create a job alert for this search
