About BBOXX
Lack of energy access in sub-Saharan Africa is a significant problem, with more than 600 million people currently without mains electricity supply. In Rwanda, 9.5 million people or 81% of the population cannot access mains electricity, which has a negative impact on quality of life and limits people’s chances of achieving economic prosperity.
BBOXX is helping to address this issue by providing off-grid communities in developing countries with affordable energy solutions. BBOXX customers typically use a Pay-As-You-Go payment method, which enables very low income customers access to electricity at home that they would otherwise not be able to afford.
Your impact
Are you interested in being part of a team that provides independent and objective assurance to the firm on the effectiveness of the firm’s internal control structure? Internal Audit has holistic and unique insights on the firm’s functions and activities as well as the renewable energy industry, its products, and operations. We’re looking for detail-oriented team players who have an interest in the renewable energy sector and want to gain insight into the firm’s operations and control processes.
Our impact
In Internal Audit, we ensure that BBOXX maintains effective controls by assessing the reliability of financial reports, independently assessing internal control structures, monitoring the firm’s compliance with laws and regulations, raising awareness of control risks, and advising management on developing and implementing smart control solutions.
