Position Summary
The purpose of this role is to ensure that all sponsorship and donor payments received by Peace are accurately identified, recorded, and reconciled in the organisation’s financial systems.

Flag any discrepancies or unmatched payments for investigation.
Coordination and Reporting
Work closely with the Fundraising, Sponsorship, and Finance teams to resolve payment queries.
Maintain organized documentation and transaction records for audit and reporting purposes.
