Responsabilités

As an Investment Manager at FED, you will be instrumental in driving the entire investment lifecycle for our Direct Investment Fund strategy, from initial opportunity identification to portfolio oversight. Your responsibilities will encompass leading investment evaluations, conducting rigorous financial analyses, shaping deal structures, negotiating terms, managing due diligence, and tracking portfolio performance. Collaboration across teams will be essential, as you guide the development of concept papers for prospective projects. The ideal candidate will combine sharp analytical abilities with deep expertise in private equity—particularly in direct investments across Africa—and thrive in a high-energy, fast-moving setting. Key duties include leading the investment team through deal origination, opportunity assessment, participation in investment committees and board discussions, portfolio oversight, exit planning, and fundraising initiatives. You will perform comprehensive risk evaluations, identify strategic opportunities, and assess the viability of investments or Greenfield ventures. Advanced financial modeling, valuation, and portfolio monitoring will be central to your role. Additionally, you will oversee deal structuring, analyse transaction terms, draft term sheets and investment memos, lead negotiations, and coordinate execution efforts. Your responsibilities will extend to conducting thorough due diligence, engaging with target company leadership, analyzing industry dynamics, competitive positioning, and financial health. You will also interface with external advisors, review their findings, and present insights to FED’s leadership and governance bodies. Portfolio performance monitoring, including tracking KPIs and ESG value-creation plans, will form a core part of your role. Regular reporting to stakeholders—such as Executive Management, the Board, and investors—will be required, alongside staying attuned to market shifts, regulatory updates, and economic influences. Fundraising support, including the preparation of marketing materials and investor engagement, will also be part of your mandate. Management may assign additional responsibilities as needed. Requirements: – Analytical Excellence: Capacity to dissect complex financial data, extract meaningful insights, and derive actionable conclusions. – Financial Modeling: Expertise in building and applying financial models to assess opportunities, forecast performance, value investments, and evaluate risks. – Research & Due Diligence: Proficiency in conducting in-depth market research, trend analysis, and investment due diligence. – Precision & Rigor: Meticulous attention to detail in financial analysis, data interpretation, and report preparation. – Communication: Exceptional English fluency—both written and verbal—to clearly convey investment recommendations and intricate financial concepts. – Adaptability: Capacity to excel in

Expert Application Advice

When tailoring your resume for African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank), don’t just list your years of experience—prove mastery of les compétences demandées dans l'annonce with a specific, measurable achievement. Senior roles need concrete impact, not generic duties. This shows you understand the role’s real demands.

Positioning — Your cover letter must answer one question: why YOU for THIS specific role right NOW? Avoid generic templates — one sentence on what you specifically bring beats three generic paragraphs.

Key figures — Budgets managed, cost savings achieved, audits closed on time: prepare 3 precise financial achievements with amounts. African CFOs often test IFRS or local GAAP knowledge — be ready with specific examples.

  • •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.
