What I'm looking for

I’m looking to drive end-to-end recruitment and talent acquisition in an in-house, fast-paced environment—using my HR systems, analytics, and stakeholder management to deliver timely hires, strong candidate experience, and measurable hiring outcomes.

As a strategic Talent Acquisition Professional with over a decade of experience in high-performing teams across Africa, the Middle East, and global markets, I bring a deep understanding of diverse markets, and the complexities of scaling across regions. I’ve successfully driven full-cycle recruitment, talent strategy, and workforce planning across retail, corporate, and multinational environments. My career has been shaped by partnering with fast-growing, people-centric global organisations to attract, develop, and retain top talent at scale. In my roles, I’ve partnered closely with senior leadership to align hiring strategies with business goals and optimising recruitment processes. I’m particularly passionate about creating inclusive hiring practices, strengthening talent pipelines, and delivering a seamless candidate experience. My approach combines data-driven decision-making with strong relationship-building, ensuring both business impact and a human-centered recruitment journey.
