About One Acre Fund

Founded in 2006, One Acre Fund equips 5.5 million smallholder farmers to make their farms more productive. Across nine countries that together are home to two-thirds of Africa's farmers, we provide high-quality farm supplies, tree seedlings, accessible credit, modern agronomic training, and a wide range of other agricultural services. On average, this model enables any farmer to increase their income and assets on supported land by more than 35 percent, while permanently improving their resilience. This is all made possible by our team of 9,000+ full-time staff, drawn from diverse backgrounds and professions. To learn more, please see our Why Work Here blog post.

About the Role

Seeking an experienced finance professional with 8+ years of experience to lead reconciliation and payments transformation, improve operational controls, and partner across global teams to build scalable, technology-enabled finance operations.

Responsibilities

Champion Automation & Innovation: Own the strategy and execution for bank reconciliation automation. You’ll partner with tech, treasury, and regional teams to integrate cutting-edge tools directly into our ERP, turning manual tasks into streamlined, automated processes.

Fortify Payment Controls: Design and standardize robust pre- and post-payment vendor reconciliation systems. You’ll investigate complex transactions to actively eliminate duplicate payments, resolve aged balances, and ensure absolute compliance.

Manage Risk & Drive Continuous Improvement: Actively identify operational bottlenecks, design corrective action plans, and keep our teams completely audit-ready. You will be the gatekeeper of our financial policies and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).

Empower & Grow a Talented Team: Provide direct mentorship, coaching, and career development for a team of finance professionals. You’ll build team capabilities, cultivate future leaders, and help recruit outstanding new talent.

Step Up as a Deputy Leader: Act as the strategic deputy to the Payments & Treasury leadership team. You’ll serve as a thought partner, lead high-stakes cross-functional projects, and ensure seamless continuity of our operations.

Career Growth and Development

We have a strong culture of constant learning and we invest in developing our people. You’ll have weekly check-ins with your manager, access to mentorship and training programs, and regular feedback on your performance. We hold career reviews every six months, and set aside time to discuss your aspirations and career goals. You’ll have the opportunity to shape a growing organization and build a rewarding long-term career.
