Jop Opportunity - Director of Finance and Investments (Re-advertisement)
The Malawi University of Business and Applied Sciences (MUBAS) was created by an Act of Parliament No.19 of 2019, as an entrepreneurial university specializing in business and applied sciences.
The newly established University would like to fill the position of Director of Finance and Investments with a suitably qualified candidate at a time when it is redefining its niche and globally repositioning itself to run in compliance with international norms of scholarship and a business culture that characterizes a modern university.
The desirable candidate is expected to be a seasoned finance professional who is capable of providing solid leadership to the finance function. The person should also demonstrate capacity to operate in an academic environment. Additionally, the candidate is supposed to have demonstrable ability to contribute to the creation of an entrepreneurial university capable of weaning itself from overdependence on government subvention. The role requires capability for tactful interaction with members of executive management and analytical skills which a financial advisor to the Vice-Chancellor should possess. A flair for developing innovative financial policies in resonance with Government legislation is critical to this role for it to be effectively executed.
