Financial Coordinator – Ouagadougou (national position only)

Première Urgence Internationale is recruiting a financial coordinator for its mission in Burkina Faso, under a fixed-term contract based at Ouagadougou. The position is open to national candidates only.

Presentation of the organization

With 40 years of experience, Première Urgence Internationale helps nearly 6 million beneficiaries, with a budget of more than 100 million euros per year, spread over 22 countries on 5 continents. The organization relies on the involvement and commitment of more than 2000 national employees, about 200 expatriates from 45 different nationalities and 90 employees at headquarters.

PUI works in 10 sectors of intervention and is distinguished by the implementation of an integrated approach in its response. This method aims to identify and understand all the needs of people affected by a crisis. The teams are mobilizing to provide a comprehensive response to all the basic needs of populations victims of humanitarian crises, in an emergency to enable them to regain autonomy and dignity.

Activities of PUI in Burkina Faso

Première Urgence Internationale has been operating in Burkina Faso since July 2020. In the Goulmou region, activities began in August 2020 in the health district of Fada, through a response aimed at ensuring the continuity of health care for vulnerable populations. Since June 2021, PUI has also been present in the health district of Sebba (Yagha, Liptako region) to meet increasing humanitarian needs. In 2023, an operational base was opened in Dori, with a view to strengthening operational coverage in the Liptako region.

PUI’s operational strategy in Burkina Faso aims to strengthen local response capacities as well as the resilience of institutions and communities. It is based on an integrated approach in the areas of health, nutrition, food security, water, hygiene and sanitation, as well as psychosocial support. PUI has a coordination office in Ouagadougou and operational bases in Fada and Dori. The intervention zones cover the provinces of Djelgodji and Karo-Peli in the Soum region; Séno and Yagha in the Liptako region; Gourma in the Goulmou region; Dyamongou and Gobnangou in the Tapoa region; as well as Gnagna and Komondjari in the Sirba region.

The role

The Financial Coordinator is responsible for the good financial, accounting and budgetary management of the mission. He/She is the point of reference in this area on the mission, both internally and externally (donors, authorities, NGOs).

Responsibilities

To this end, your responsibilities will be as follows:

Financial, budgetary and accounting management: You are responsible for all aspects of the finances, including budgetary and accounting elements, as well as the cash flow of the mission.

Representation: you represent the association with partners, authorities and various local actors involved in the financial, administrative and legal fields of the mission.

Coordination: you centralize and disseminate information within the mission and at headquarters on all matters relating to the financial areas of the mission, and consolidate internal and external reporting in these same areas.

The challenges ahead

1. Ensure sound financial, budgetary and accounting management of the mission

Financial strand

You develop and update dashboards to ensure the financial balance of the mission and prevent risks. You analyze the financial information and share your conclusions with the coordination team, the basic managers and the technical managers concerned, as well as with the head office manager. You ensure the implementation and proper use of financial, accounting and budgetary management procedures and tools throughout the mission. You are responsible for briefing new expatriates and national employees on these rules and organize ad hoc training as needed.

Among other things, you ensure compliance with the expenditure commitment procedure and set up an internal control system. You also participate in the validation of purchase records. You guarantee the compliance of the allocation and reporting of each shared cost in accordance with the PUI procedure. You are in charge, during financial audits on the mission and at headquarters, of accounting and administrative documents and requests, and supervise their transmission to the audit focal point.

Budget component

You will lead the development of the mission's budget framework for the year and monitor/revise it on a regular basis, as defined by each donor, in coordination with the team and field managers concerned. You then ensure the coverage of the costs strictly related to the proposed programs, but also the fair distribution of the operating costs of the mission over the duration of each project.

You carry out monthly budget monitoring of each project, which you communicate to the actors concerned on the mission and at headquarters in accordance with the financial calendar PUI, and analyze with them any differences between forecast and realized. You carry out budget projections at regular deadlines in order to ensure the optimization of budgetary resources in compliance with the rules of eligibility and flexibility of each funder. If necessary, you make proposals for budget adjustments, which may involve requests for contractual endorsements. You take into account the contractual period required for the submission of an endorsement.

Expert Application Advice

Fort de mon expérience en finance senior, je pourrais apporter une valeur immédiate à Du même annonceur en orchestrant des stratégies adaptées aux enjeux africains. Mon approche combine rigueur et pragmatisme, notamment sur les compétences demandées dans l'annonce, avec une connaissance fine des régulations locales.

Positionnement — Votre lettre de motivation doit répondre à une seule question : pourquoi VOUS pour CE poste précis à CE moment ? Évitez les lettres génériques — une phrase sur ce que vous apportez spécifiquement vaut mieux que trois paragraphes généraux.

Chiffres décisifs — Budgets gérés, économies réalisées, audits clôturés dans les délais : préparez 3 réalisations financières précises avec montants. En entretien, les CFO africains testent souvent votre connaissance des normes SYSCOHADA ou IFRS.

  • •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
  • •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
  • •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
  • •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
  • •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
  • •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
