About This Role
This is a hands-on finance leadership post at one of Ethiopia's longest-standing LPG distributors, a company that has been operating since the early 1990s and is now investing in technology to modernize how it serves customers. The Finance Manager will likely own the full financial cycle — from bookkeeping discipline to reporting and compliance — rather than sitting above a large finance department. It suits someone who is comfortable being the senior finance authority in an organization where operational realities (fuel supply, logistics, distribution) intersect daily with the numbers.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The combination of a long experience window alongside explicit Peachtree and IFRS training signals that Ghion Gas needs someone who can both run day-to-day accounting software and produce statements to a recognized reporting standard — a profile common in Ethiopian firms balancing local practice with external credibility. Asking for 8 years with a BA or 6 with an MBA suggests they want maturity and judgment, not just technical skill, and are open to weighing postgraduate education against time served. The mention of both systems and standards hints that the finance function may still be consolidating its processes, so the hire will likely need to strengthen controls rather than simply maintain them.
How to Approach This Application
Lead with evidence of IFRS-based reporting you have personally prepared or reviewed, and be specific about Peachtree use in a live company environment, not just training certificates. Given the company's emphasis on technology-driven modernization, showing how you have improved financial systems, reporting speed, or controls in a previous role will differentiate you. Expect the employer to weigh stability and sector familiarity — experience in energy, distribution, or other regulated or high-volume operations is worth highlighting.
Who This Role Suits
Best suited to a seasoned accountant ready to be the top finance person in a mid-sized, established company, and likely to attract strong competition from candidates with audit or fuel-sector backgrounds.
Ghion Gas P.L.C. is a pioneer in the Ethiopian energy sector, established in 1992.
