I am a lawyer-turned HR professional driving scalable people operations.
What I'm looking for
I am a lawyer-turned HR professional with years of experience driving people operations across startups and growth-stage companies in Nigeria. I have a proven track record in full-cycle recruitment, employee relations, policy development, performance management, and leadership development.
I have built HR frameworks and scalable structures, led recruitment cycles, administered payroll and compliance, and designed OKRs and performance systems at companies including CloudNine Records Ltd and Whealve Tech Ltd. I have also supported clients as an HR consultant, drafting policies, developing training curricula, and collaborating with developers to launch a client-specific HR mobile/web app.
I blend legal acumen with a people-first HR strategy, focusing on scalable HR systems, strategic L&D, succession planning, and close partnership with cross-functional teams and executive stakeholders to improve retention and operational efficiency.
