Summary

Kuda is a money app for Africans on a mission to make financial services accessible, affordable and rewarding for every African on the planet.
We’re a tribe of passionate and diverse people who dreamed of building an inclusive money app that Africans would love so it’s only right that we ended up with the name ‘Kuda’ which means ‘love’ in Shona, a language spoken in the southern part of Africa.
We’re giving Africans around the world a better alternative to traditional finance by delivering money transfers, smart budgeting and instant access to credit through digital devices. We’ve raised over $90 million from some of the world's most respected institutional investors, and we’re rolling out our game-changing services globally from our offices in Nigeria, South Africa, and the UK.

Role Overview
We are seeking a highly motivated and detail-oriented FP&A Financial Analyst to play a key role in our finance team. Reporting to the Group CFO, the analyst will be responsible for developing and maintaining financial models, managing the budgeting and forecasting processes, and providing financial insights to support strategic decision-making. The ideal candidate will possess strong analytical and communication skills, the ability to collaborate effectively across departments, and the capacity to present financial information to various stakeholders, including investors.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and maintain integrated financial models (income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow) to support forecasting, scenario planning, and valuation analyses. 
  • Lead the quarterly budgeting and forecasting/reforecasting process, working closely with departments to gather inputs and ensure alignment with company goals. 
  • Prepare and analyze monthly and quarterly financial reports, including variance analysis, to identify trends, risks, and opportunities. 
  • Provide insightful financial analysis and recommendations to support strategic initiatives, such as new product development, capital expenditures, and business expansion. 
  • Conduct scenario analysis and profitability reports to assess the potential impact of different business decisions. 
  • Prepare materials for and potentially present financial results to management and investors, board members including presentations and board papers.
  • Support the development and tracking of key performance indicators (KPIs) to monitor business performance. 
  • Respond to ad-hoc requests for financial analysis and reporting from various stakeholders across the organization. 
  • Contribute to improvements in budgeting and forecasting methodologies and processes. 
  • Share the experience and mentor the Junior Corporate Financial Analyst.
