Lodge Accounting Officer
Innovation Advance Recruitment
Serengeti
Full-Time
26th July 2025
Where spreadsheets meet sunsets. Where numbers carry stories. Where finance finds purpose.
This isn’t corporate. It’s conservation. It’s community. It’s wild.
We’re on the lookout for a meticulous financial maverick who thrives in the unexpected. Someone who can balance a ledger as easily as they can recalibrate a stock report during a power outage. You're not just another cog in the wheel—you’re the camp’s financial compass.
💼 Your role looks like:
- Owning the accounting rhythm, from daily entries to balance sheet reconciliations
- Safeguarding stock, cash, and systems like they’re rare species (because, in this setting, they kind of are)
- Calling the shots on payroll prep, management accounts, and supplier payments
- Bringing calm precision to monthly finance meetings and budget forecasts
- Leading internal audits, asking the hard questions, and never settling for “it’s always been done this way”
- Training, supporting, and raising the financial game for every team member, from FOH to safari shop
🧠You bring:
- A degree in finance (CPA = big brownie points)
- 3–4 years in the trenches of accounting or lodge finance
- A solid handle on Excel and ideally PanStrat
- Integrity, grit, and a heart that asks why as often as it asks how much
- Fluency in English, patience in abundance, and the kind of curiosity that reads a spreadsheet like a map
This permanent, on-site role is set at a breathtaking lodge tucked against the Serengeti border. If your soul stirs at the thought of blending purpose with precision — this might just be your wild calling.
