We seek a dynamic and experienced professional with a strong background in the food and beverage or broader manufacturing sector, whether in Production, Sales, Supply Chain, or other areas, to lead our Internal Control and Audit Department. While prior audit or internal control experience is a plus, it is not required; a strong interest in these areas is essential. The ideal candidate will use their extensive industry knowledge to advise and mentor a team of skilled auditors and controllers, integrating operational insights into our processes and making control and audit principles accessible to operational staff. We seek someone who can transform the perception of audit and internal control, making these functions engaging and valuable to those who typically view them as overly administrative or regulatory. This position offers significant exposure to Senior Management and the opportunity to drive change, embedding controls as an integral part of our organizational culture. If you are passionate about operational excellence and eager to contribute to a transformative effort, we want to hear from you. Join us and help shape the future of BGI Ethiopia.
