What I'm looking for

I seek leadership roles where I can drive digital transformation, lead PMOs, scale teams, ensure regulatory compliance, and deliver measurable business value.

I am a results-driven IT Project/Program Manager and Business Technology Executive with extensive experience leading high-performing teams across investment banking, fintech, maritime IT, and telecommunications. I deliver projects end-to-end using Agile and Waterfall methodologies while optimizing limited resources to achieve measurable outcomes.

I have led PMOs, established Strategic Business Units, managed regulatory relationships with bodies like the Central Bank of Nigeria, and driven digital transformation initiatives including platform and website development. I co-founded a virtual technology hub focused on training millions of African youths and have a track record of building revenue streams, developing talent, and fostering stakeholder alignment.

Hands-on in project planning, risk management, budgeting, vendor management, and cross-functional collaboration, I combine strategic thinking with operational discipline to implement SOPs, improve processes, and ensure compliance. I hold an MSc in Information Technology and certifications including Certified Scrum Master, PRINCE2 Foundation, and membership with PMI and professional bodies.
