About the Role

We are looking for a highly meticulous and trustworthy Finance Officer to manage financial records, reconciliations, COD collections and day-to-day financial controls.

This role requires someone who pays close attention to detail, follows up consistently, and is not comfortable leaving unexplained discrepancies unresolved.

Responsibilities

• Reconcile COD collections and payments against expected amounts and transaction records.
• Track expected, received, outstanding and delayed payments.
• Follow up promptly on outstanding COD remittances and financial discrepancies.
• Investigate differences between transaction records, expected amounts and actual remittances.
• Maintain accurate and up-to-date financial records and supporting documentation.
• Review transactions and supporting evidence for accuracy and completeness.
• Monitor payments, expenses, invoices and other financial transactions.
• Prepare regular financial and reconciliation reports.
• Identify and escalate unusual transactions, irregularities or suspected financial misconduct.
• Maintain clear audit trails and proper documentation for financial activities.
• Work independently while maintaining strong financial controls and confidentiality.
• Coordinate with Operations and other relevant teams when financial issues require investigation or resolution.
• Ensure financial records remain accurate, complete and properly reconciled.

Requirements

• Degree/HND in Accounting, Finance, Economics or a related field.
• Previous experience in finance, accounting, reconciliation or financial operations.
• Strong understanding of financial records and reconciliation processes.
• Excellent attention to detail and strong numerical ability.
• Strong follow-up skills and the ability to pursue outstanding issues until they are resolved.
• High level of integrity, accountability and confidentiality.
• Ability to work independently and maintain professional boundaries.
• Ability to identify and investigate discrepancies rather than simply adjusting figures to make records balance.
• Good knowledge of Excel/Google Sheets and financial or accounting systems.
• Good communication and reporting skills.
• Experience in logistics, e-commerce, fulfillment or COD-based businesses is an advantage.

Important

This is a control-sensitive finance role. The successful candidate must be comfortable working with financial records, COD collections and reconciliations, maintaining proper documentation, and escalating irregularities when necessary.

If you are highly detail-oriented, trustworthy and persistent when it comes to financial reconciliation, we would like to hear from you.
