The role ensures that every financial event — from product disbursement through to customer account credit, repayment collection, and system reflection in the Loan Management System (LMS) — is processed accurately, completely, and in line with how each product and process was designed to operate.</span></p><br><p><span>Working within the Finance team and reporting to the Finance Manager, the Reconciliation Analyst uses Tableau dashboards and financial reports — supported by the BI/BA team for data extraction and the Revenue Assurance function for methodology — to identify discrepancies, investigate anomalies independently, and escalate only critical findings requiring management intervention.</span></p><br><p><span>The role covers Bede's full current product suite — microfinance, prepaid cards, wallet services, and remittances — and will extend to all future products as they are introduced, including insurance, investment, and any other financial services Bede launches.
