As their Odoo Administrator, you will step into one of the most important hires this company will make this year. Odoo is the engine at the heart of this business — driving stock management, finance, reporting, and operations across multiple subsidiaries and countries. You wont just be maintaining a system; you will be owning it, shaping it, and making it work harder for a company doing genuinely meaningful work.
This is a rare opportunity to walk into a role with immediate impact. With a transition period ahead, your knowledge and leadership will be critical in preserving what has been built and taking it to the next level. If you thrive in fast-moving environments, love getting under the bonnet of a complex ERP system and want your work to matter — this could be the role youve been waiting for.

* Maintain and improve system configuration, workflows, and processes to keep the business running at its best
* Drive data integrity across stock, finance, and reporting — giving the business the visibility it needs to make confident decisions
* Support the rollout of new modules and identify opportunities to bring additional business processes into Odoo over time
* Own supply chain data completeness, including in-transit stock and shipment pipeline visibility, in collaboration with the Operations team
* Support the development of operational dashboards and reporting tools for country teams across the continent
* Lead process automation initiatives and work alongside the Software Team to integrate Odoo with the wider data stack
* Act as the liaison with external developers and consultancies, escalating complex architectural needs where required
About you:
* Strong understanding of ERP systems in an operational environment
* Experience supporting users across multiple functions (e.g. stock, finance, operations)
* Ability to manage system configuration and workflows
* Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail
Bonus Points
* Experience working with Odoo specifically (administrator, analyst, or similar role)
* Experience with supply chain or inventory management systems
* Experience with reporting, dashboards, and data analysis
* Exposure to system integrations or working alongside development teams
* Experience working across multiple countries or distributed teams
What’s In It for you
* Competitive salary on offer
* Opportunity to work closely with senior leadership
* Exposure to international projects with products deployed across Africa
* A collaborative and supportive working environment within a mission-driven organisation
* The chance to play a key role in a growing technology business with real-world impact
