I am writing to express my interest in the program finance officer position with Christian Blind Mission I bring over eight years of progressive experience managing complex, multi-donor humanitarian and development grants for international NGOs, with strong expertise in grants lifecycle management, donor compliance, proposal development support, partner capacity strengthening, and audit coordination. I am highly motivated to contribute my skills to programmes operating in fragile and conflict-affected contexts such as South Sudan.

Throughout my career, I have managed and supported grants funded by USAID, the European Union, UNICEF, WFP, IOM, SIDA, CDC-PEPFAR, Trocaire, Diakonia, and Misereor, ensuring full compliance with donor regulations and internal controls. In my current role with CISP, I lead end-to-end grants management for a multi-donor portfolio, including grant start-up, budget development, donor financial reporting, grant amendments, audits, and close-out. I work closely with programme, MEAL, procurement, and partner teams to ensure timely and accurate donor submissions and effective use of project resources.

Previously with World Vision International, I supported high-value grants exceeding USD 3 million, contributing to successful grant renewals through timely reporting, strong compliance oversight, and effective sub-grantee monitoring. I have consistently coordinated donor and external audits resulting in clean audit opinions and zero disallowed costs, while also strengthening partner systems through targeted capacity-building and risk mitigation measures.

I am a Certified Public Accountant (CPAK) with a Bachelor of Commerce (Accounting) and ongoing MSc studies, bringing a strong financial foundation to grants strategy and portfolio oversight. Beyond technical expertise, I offer proven leadership, coordination, and communication skills, with experience supervising grants and finance staff and supporting field operations in resource-constrained environments. I am adaptable, culturally sensitive, and willing to deploy to field-based and high-risk duty stations, including South Sudan.

I am excited about the opportunity to support CBM’s mission and contribute to high-quality, accountable programming. I would welcome the opportunity to further discuss how my experience and skills can add value to your grants and programme teams.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Warm regards,

Antony Nzomo Munyao
