Role: International Finance Manager - Libya & North Africa
Location: Misrata, Libya, and Tunis. Travel to other HALO locations will sometimes be necessary.
Contract: Permanent, Full-time
Salary: £33,959 - £45,255, dependent on experience
Job Purpose:
To support Programme and Project Managers by leading the management of all financial planning, processes, and risks across all programming through effective, efficient delivery of standard financial operating procedures and local finance teams' training/capacity building.
About HALO:
The HALO Trust's mission is to protect lives and restore livelihoods for communities affected by conflict.
For over 35 years, HALO has worked in post-conflict zones to make land safe by clearing landmines and explosive remnants of war. In the aftermath of conflict, contaminated land prevents families from farming, accessing water, or safely sending children to school. HALO recruits and trains local men and women to clear these hazards, enabling communities to reclaim their land, rebuild their lives, and shape their futures.
Today, HALO is one of the world's leading humanitarian mine clearance organisations, operating in 32 countries and territories with a global workforce of over 10,000 people, the majority of whom are local staff.
About the Role:
The International Finance Manager (IFM) is a senior management team member who has a key role in the programme's finance department. Their responsibilities include ensuring that the daily, monthly, and annual financial duties comply with HALO's policies, donor contracts, and national finance and tax regulations. They also provide strategic leadership to the finance team, develop business plans, budgets, and strategies to support the programme's funding and overarching strategy.
The IFM is responsible for managing the finance team, building the capacity of individual team members, and ensuring the overall structure of the department, which provides robust and timely support to the programme's activities. They are to lead their team, and alongside the other senior management team members, they are to inspire, motivate and manage the programme. The IFM is responsible for ensuring that the proper procurement and accounting systems are in place, monitored and improved as necessary and that the finance team is resourced appropriately.
The IFM is responsible for promptly meeting deadlines for internal and external reporting and proposals. Alongside the Programme Manager, the IFM is responsible for short—and long-term financial planning to support the programme and successfully deliver donor contracts on budget.
HALO has been working in Libya since 2018, primarily on the manual and mechanical clearance of ammunition from destroyed urban centres. HALO is also expanding its weapons and ammunition management (WAM) programming in Libya and other areas of North Africa. The International Finance Manager will play a crucial and integral role in this expansion, making this an exciting time to join our team.
The IFM reports directly to the Libya Programme Manager and is expected to work primarily from Misrata, Libya, but with time also to be spent in Tunisia supporting the Tunisia-based project manager. At present, the expected balance of time spent in Libya vs Tunis is 60:40, which is up for review at the end of the year.
*PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS ROLE IS BASED IN LIBYA AND TUNISIA, AND CANNOT BE CONDUCTED REMOTELY*
