I manage high-value commercial contracts, subcontracting, and CLM across complex regulated environments.
What I'm looking for
I've managed end-to-end commercial contract portfolios worth over $50 million at IHS Towers, drafting and negotiating supplier, SaaS, software licence and service-provider agreements. I advise procurement and project teams on tendering, subcontracting, risk allocation, variations, claims and supplier performance.
My background spans legal counsel roles at Access Bank and Unilever Nigeria, alongside contract management projects covering supplier, consultancy, service and confidentiality agreements. I bring practical contract governance, CLM, data protection and dispute-resolution experience, and have delivered process improvements that strengthened compliance and project delivery.
