What I'm looking for

I'm seeking global remote, hybrid, or relocation opportunities where I can lead multi-country hiring, partner with business leaders on workforce strategy, and build scalable recruitment operations across technical, commercial, and corporate functions.

At Zigma Ltd, I lead end-to-end talent acquisition across multiple business units, partnering with senior executives and regional managers to align hiring with growth objectives. I reduced time-to-fill by 38% for engineering and business-critical roles, increased qualified pipelines 3x, and improved offer acceptance by 25%.

Previously at Parity, I delivered 75+ hires across Engineering, Product, Growth, and Commercial functions while supporting expansion across Africa and emerging markets. I advised founders and leadership on talent availability, compensation benchmarking, market positioning, and cross-border offer negotiations.

My recruitment background spans technical, corporate, and leadership hiring across fintech, software, telecoms, and ICT. I've used Workday, Greenhouse, and SmartRecruiters to improve hiring visibility, analytics, workflows, and candidate experience.

I bring more than eight years of global talent acquisition experience and 15+ years of cross-functional leadership experience. I enjoy building practical hiring strategies, strengthening interview frameworks, and helping leaders make confident talent decisions.
