Background:

Navanti has a requirement for a Finance Manager to support the Nigeria Third Party Monitoring Project (NTPMP), which assists USAID/Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA)/Nigeria by providing independent, verifiable data on the outputs and quality of its humanitarian assistance activities.

Produce financial reports for the Deputy Chief of Party (DCOP), as needed.
Work closely with the DCOP to establish financial systems, track spending, and ensure efficient use of resources in line with USAID requirements.
Ensure payroll calculations and statutory deductions are accurate and in compliance with local regulations.
Supervise the Finance Officer and ensure that processing of payment transactions is done on a daily basis.
Provide support and guidance to the NTPMP team on financial management.
