The Association's area of operation stretches from the Berg River Dam to the estuary at Velddrif, with a strong focus on integrated water resource management and governance.

BRWUA is seeking a Financial & Administration Manager to join their management team. This is a broad, hands-on, multi-functional role that extends beyond traditional finance.

  • Lead the Association's budgeting, reporting, and audit preparation processes
  • Maintain compliance with financial regulations, employment, and tax legislation
  • Implement and maintain sound financial controls and internal reporting systems

Administration & Governance

  • Oversee administrative systems, records, and compliance with relevant policies
  • Support the CEO with planning, governance documentation, and coordination of meetings
  • Prepare and present operational and compliance reports to management and external bodies
  • Contribute to governance processes and policy implementation

Organisational & Operational Support

  • Ensure the efficient running of office operations and administrative tasks
  • Coordinate and support a variety of functions, including finance, member liaison, and general office administration
  • Assist with projects related to water resource management, compliance, and environmental initiatives
  • Foster collaboration and a positive team culture

REQUIREMENTS:

  • A relevant tertiary qualification (e.g. a degree in accounting or financial management, or equivalent)
  • A minimum of 8 years' relevant experience, including at least 3 years in a middle management role, preferably gained in a small or medium-sized organisation with diverse operational and administrative responsibilities
  • Proficiency in SAGE Pastel Accounting & Payroll, and strong Excel and Word skills
