Finance Business Partner at Capitec Bank

Why This Role Exists

• We’re building a sharper, more forward-looking Finance Business Partnering capability to support growth across our organisation. Our team works closely with executives and senior leaders across the bank, supporting multiple portfolios that serve millions of clients and enable key strategic initiatives. 
• You’ll partner directly with leadership to shape strategy, challenge thinking, and turn insight into real financial impact - as we continue to evolve from traditional reporting into a more advisory, future-focused function that helps shape business direction. 

What You’ll Do

• Partner with senior leaders to support planning, performance tracking and decision-making.  
• Translate business drivers into clear financial insight that informs action 
• Contribute to budgeting, forecasting and management reporting cycles 
• Provide commercial analysis that helps manage risk and support sustainable growth 
• Use financial models and driver‑based analysis to test scenarios and improve outcomes 

Why This Role is Different

• We offer early exposure to senior decision‑makers and complex, real‑world challenges 
• We value commercial thinking as much as technical skill 
• We encourage curiosity, constructive challenge and shared ownership 
• We invest in long‑term relationships through an ongoing talent pool, not just single roles 

What We’re Looking For

• Fully qualified CA(SA) or CIMA (CGMA) professional. 
• 2–3 years’ post-qualification experience (post-articles) in finance, with a strong focus on financial planning and analysis, commercial finance, or business partnering  
• Proven experience partnering with the business and delivering financial insights to senior stakeholders to support strategic decision-making  
• Hands-on experience in budgeting, forecasting, performance management, and management reporting  
• Strong financial modelling capability, including driver-based analysis, scenario modelling, and strategic investment evaluation  
• Experience working across complex portfolios or multi-divisional environments, with an understanding of cross-functional financial integration  
• Solid understanding of financial governance, regulatory frameworks, and IFRS (advantageous, depending on portfolio)  
• Familiarity with enterprise financial systems and planning tools  
• Demonstrated ability to contribute to team capability, including mentoring or supporting junior team members  
• Strong communication skills, with the confidence to challenge, influence, and collaborate with senior stakeholders
