Job Description

The Kenya National Farmers Federation (KENAFF) is seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Finance Intern to support its finance and accounting functions. The opportunity is suitable for a student or recent graduate looking to gain practical experience in financial management, accounting processes and organisational finance operations.

The successful candidate will support the Finance team in carrying out day-to-day accounting activities while gaining practical exposure to financial records, financial analysis, reporting and other finance-related processes. The role will provide an opportunity to apply academic knowledge in a professional working environment and develop practical skills relevant to a career in finance and accounting.

Applicants should be pursuing a degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics or a related field and must be CPA finalists. Candidates should have strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, good communication skills and a high level of attention to detail. The position requires an individual who is willing to learn, organised and capable of handling financial information accurately and responsibly.

As part of the internship, the successful candidate will gain exposure to various finance and accounting activities and support the team in maintaining accurate financial information. The intern may assist with reviewing financial documents, organising accounting records, supporting financial data processing and performing other duties assigned by the Finance team.

The role will also provide practical experience in understanding financial procedures and how accounting functions contribute to the effective management of an organisation. The intern is expected to demonstrate accuracy when handling financial information and follow established financial procedures and internal controls.

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills will be important in supporting the Finance team. The successful candidate should be able to examine information carefully, identify discrepancies and seek appropriate guidance when dealing with financial or accounting issues.

The internship also offers real-world experience and professional development opportunities, allowing the successful candidate to gain a better understanding of finance operations within a professional organisation. The intern will have an opportunity to learn from experienced professionals and develop practical competencies that can support future employment in accounting, finance and related fields.

KENAFF is a non-political, non-profit-making and democratic member-based umbrella organisation representing farmers in Kenya. The organisation works to articulate and advocate for issues affecting farmers while supporting the interests of farming communities.

The Finance Intern will therefore have an opportunity to gain professional experience while supporting the financial operations of an organisation working within Kenya's agricultural sector. Candidates should demonstrate professionalism, integrity, willingness to learn and the ability to work effectively with others.
