ED SED Manager – Renewables – Northern Cape

NB: IMMEDIATE START

We’re looking for someone who doesn’t exist. The modern-day, South African Florence Nightingale.

Someone from a finance background that is looking for a more meaningful career, someone who is looking for purpose.

Sitting behind your desk in the 2nd degree impact zone just isn’t enough for you anymore, you’re hungry to be making real change and experience the butterfly-feeling that comes with being in the 1st degree impact zone.

Our shot-in-the-dark, perfect candidate has experience with reconciliations, managing an ED budget, BBBEE auditing, DOE reporting, and can speak Afrikaans and maybe a little isiXhosa. They would use this expertise to drive economic and social growth within several communities in the Northern Cape.

It’s a tall order we know, but we believe in that our once in a lifetime professional exists somewhere out there.
