Belindah Chapfinya

I am a Chartered Accountant (SA) with over 17 years of experience across audit, corporate finance, risk management and financial management. I have built a strong track record in financial reporting, technical accounting, controls, stakeholder management and delivering high-quality financial insights to support business decision-making.

I am a strategic and commercially minded finance professional who enjoys solving complex problems, improving processes and developing high-performing teams. My experience in Big 4 audit, together with my broader finance and corporate experience, has given me a strong technical foundation and the ability to operate effectively in fast-paced and demanding environments.

I am also passionate about people development and mentoring, and I believe in combining technical excellence with strong leadership, collaboration and integrity. I am now looking for an opportunity where I can leverage my experience to contribute meaningfully to the organisation while continuing to grow and take on greater strategic responsibility.
