I am currently building Venture for Africa, a talent acceleration and management firm that aims to help experienced, global and local non-tech talent upskill for, gain context in, and access open roles in the African startup ecosystem 🚀 Started my career with a pivot from civil engineering 👷🏾‍♂️ and joined a tech startup in Lagos 🇳🇬 focused on building and scaling community-driven recycling programs ♻️ This led me to a four-year stint at MEST Africa 🌍, an international non-profit that recruits, trains and invests in aspiring African software entrepreneurs 💪🏾 At MEST, I was brought on as hire #2 to support the launch of a new incubator 🏗. I went on to run operations for the Nigeria office 🇳🇬 and eventually spearheaded recruitment across all markets the organisation was active in. I led and managed recruitment processes and funnels in 5 key African markets 🇳🇬🇬🇭🇿🇦🇰🇪🇨🇮, initially recruiting founders across 11 companies eventually backed by $1.1 million in seed funding between 2018 and 2019💰. My most recent leap has been to dive even deeper into finding and recruiting talent 🤿, co-founding a startup called Venture for Africa 👨🏾‍💻 where we're creating pathways for experienced talent and mid-level operators to transition into African startups. Happy to connect with startups looking to hire experienced talent 🤝 or talent looking to make a move into fast-growing venture-backed companies in Africa 🌍.

I have more than 18 years of experience working as a manager leading with a focus on establishing and scaling various projects and companies. I am passionate about creating positive development in organizations and have always worked extremely purposefully to achieve the goals that have been set. "If you create a purpose in what you are doing, your work and results will come easier" My expertise is in creating positive changes in managers and organizations so they reach their goals and objectives. I combine my knowledge in business development and sales with my passion and experience with people development and leadership skills. I am a strong believer in the potential in all humans and putting more focus on what makes us unique rather than what makes us similar. In general I believe that we all should spend more time on personal and professional training and development in order to create the results we want. It all start by becoming more conscious in our own thinking and behavior, both as a person and as a manager/leader. What I offer: • Executive Business Coaching for management and top management • Consulting on business development, sales and organization changes • Personal training on business skills • Leadership development • Find the perfect work and life balance • Free Conversations over a cup of coffee Some experiences: Management, entrepreneurship, sales, recruitment, business development, innovation management, change management, presentations, business mentoring, business training and business/executive coaching.
