What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead end-to-end architectural and construction projects—building high standards, ISO-compliant processes, and sustainable designs. I thrive on team leadership, clear timelines, and client communication that drives projects to completion.

I’m an experienced architect with nearly two decades in the Nigerian construction industry, specializing in innovative design. I lead teams to drive projects to completion and I’m skilled in CAD software and Quality Management Systems, with a strong focus on sustainable design solutions.

As Education Departmental Head: Architecture and Construction Projects (Feb 2024–Till date), I lead architectural and construction projects including Legico Barracks in Architecture, a Shopping Centre, and living units at the Nigerian Air Force Base. I also oversee telecom site designs for clients like Globacom and ATC Akoka, ensuring compliance with outlined standards; I serve as an Internal implementer & Internal Auditor for ISO 9001:2015.

Previously, I’ve managed and coordinated diverse sites as a Project Manager and Design Head, including supervision of West Park & Gardens and Rosewood Park & Gardens. I also trained 10 junior architects and handled planning, coordination, work priorities, and cost-effective decisions to deliver projects within time and budget—supported by certifications in Construction Project Management and digital marketing.
