Senior Accountant

Kisasa Designs is a dedicated full service, interior design and build partner who delivers work that lasts — technically, aesthetically, and culturally.

We are growing quickly, and we are building the financial systems and structures to match.

This role is for someone who is ready to lead that work.

What You Will Do

  • Manage accounts payable and receivable, ensuring accuracy and timely processing

  • Prepare monthly management accounts and financial reports

  • Own cash flow tracking and flag risks proactively

  • Lead TRA compliance including VAT, PAYE, and corporate tax filings

  • Support the migration and ongoing management of our ERP system

  • Work closely with the Director of Strategy on budgeting, pricing analysis, and financial planning

  • Manage project accounting across active jobs, including cost tracking, variance analysis, and reporting

  • Coordinate with the inventory management team to ensure accurate costing and stock reconciliation

  • Oversee departmental and project budgets, tracking performance against plan and flagging variances

  • Manage and supervise the cashier function, ensuring accurate daily cash handling and reconciliation

  • Analyze financial data to identify cost inefficiencies and bring forward concrete recommendations

  • Develop and implement strategies to improve collections and reduce outstanding receivables

  • Proactively identify opportunities to streamline processes and reduce overhead

How You Work

  • You do not wait to be told what needs fixing. You find it and you address it.

  • You bring solutions, not just observations.

  • You get the details right, every time, without being reminded.

  • You are comfortable owning a function without close supervision.

  • You communicate clearly with non-finance colleagues and leadership.

  • You understand that good accounting is a strategic tool, not just a compliance requirement.

What We Are Looking For

  • 4 to 6 years of accounting experience, ideally in a manufacturing, construction, or project-based business

  • Strong working knowledge of Tanzanian tax law and TRA requirements

  • Experience with at least one ERP or accounting platform (e.g. Quickbooks)

  • A CPA or equivalent qualification is preferred

  • Demonstrated ability to work independently and lead within a small team

Why Kisasa

We are a company that is moving fast and investing in the people and systems that will carry us forward. This role comes with direct access to leadership, real influence over how the business runs, and a clear path toward greater responsibility as we grow.
