MSP Staffing (PTY) LTD is looking for a Finance Manager for a leading manufacturing operation in KwaZulu-Natal, with applications closing on 28 December 2026. This is a permanent, senior role for a hands-on finance leader who can drive commercial growth and financial stability in a busy production environment.
About the company and the work
MSP Staffing is a specialist recruitment agency that connects talent with opportunities locally and abroad, and it is advertising this vacancy on Careers24 on behalf of its client. The client is a leading manufacturing operation in KwaZulu-Natal that needs a strategic, commercially minded finance leader to oversee effective financial management across the business.
Role details and duties
The successful candidate will take responsibility for the financial management of the manufacturing operation, covering procurement, operational budgeting and management reporting. The role calls for someone who can combine sound financial control with commercial thinking, so that the numbers support growth and stability rather than simply recording what has already happened. The advert does not list day-to-day duties in detail beyond these areas, so applicants should review the full scope of the work in the original advert and be ready to discuss their manufacturing finance experience in depth.
Requirements
The advert states the following requirements: registered CA(SA) or a qualified ACMA CGMA / CGMA; five or more years of senior cost and financial accounting experience within a manufacturing environment; proven expertise in standard costing, variance analysis, general ledger reconciliations and cash flow management; strong systems experience in SAP, MS Dynamics AX or similar ERP packages; and a solid track record in staff leadership, internal controls and audit management.

Practical tips
Make sure your CV shows your manufacturing experience clearly, with examples of standard costing, variance analysis and cash flow work, as well as the ERP systems you have used. If you hold a CA(SA) or CGMA qualification, put it near the top, since it is a stated requirement. Leadership, internal controls and audit management experience should also be easy to spot.
