Taking charge of financial and operational planning
Following the appointment of Ron Weiss as Jirama’s new Managing Director, one crucial step remains: appointing a turnaround management team.
According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the recruitment of other senior executives, including a CFO, is nearing completion. A few weeks ago, the IMF discussed this issue with Malagasy authorities during negotiations for the new Extended Credit Facility program.
The international recruitment process for Jirama’s Administrative, Accounting, and Financial Director began in May 2023, coinciding with the selection process that led to Ron Weiss’s appointment as Managing Director a year later.
The call for candidates at the time stated that the Administrative and Financial Director would manage the company’s operating budget. Responsibilities include financial and operational planning, risk management, financing, cash management, and budgeting.
