Strategic HR leader driving workforce transformation, compliance, and talent systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a strategic HR leader with 21+ years of progressive experience across financial services, ICT, oil & gas, hospitality, and consulting, currently heading HR Consulting at SIAO Partners in Lagos. I design and implement people strategies that align HR with business growth, optimize workforce performance, and embed compliance and governance across large, dispersed field teams.
I have led talent acquisition, performance management, succession planning, HR policy design, and culture transformation initiatives that produced measurable outcomes — including a 25% improvement in time-to-hire, a 20% uplift in engagement, and full audit compliance through updated policies and SOPs. I use HR analytics and data-driven decision-making to identify risks and drive efficiency.
I partner with CEOs and boards to deliver workforce strategy and organizational restructuring, digitize HR operations, and build inclusive, high-performing teams that support scalability and business objectives.
