Modupe Akinyele
@modupeakinyele
Chemical and process engineer delivering reliable plant performance, process safety, and optimization through data and teamwork.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Chemical/Process Engineer committed to “excellent results,” bringing an independent, objective and creative mindset to administration, calculations, and execution. I’m articulate, dynamic, and result oriented, with a strong belief in team spirit.
Early in my career, I gained hands-on exposure at Port Harcourt Refining Company Limited in the Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) section. I supported plant monitoring by gathering plant performance data, reviewing P&IDs and line tracing, recording daily production data, and executing plant efficiency tests.
Since 2017, I’ve been working as a Business Development Manager, providing project and engineering consultancy services with strong administrative and logistics support. I’ve also led production and sales of alcohol based hand sanitizers, managed project work including domestication of barites for NCDMB, and supervised training in process safety and operational efficiency in manufacturing for organizations including MATRIX PETRO-CHEM, GGI (NIG) LTD, VITAPUR PLC, VITAVISCO PLC, and RELIANCE CHEMICAL PRODUCTS.
I also bring deep experience coordinating technical programs and professional activities, from seminars and symposia to membership documentation and materials procurement. Recognition like the Chairman’s meritorious award (NSChE Lagos/Ogun states) and HOD’s meritorious award (Lagos State University) reflect my consistent drive for impact.
