Faces of Jumia

Lynette Katuku
HR Business Partner - Jumia Kenya
I became a part of Jumia in 2019, initially serving as a Human Resource Associate. Subsequently, I earned a promotion to the position of Human Resource Business Partner. Prior to joining Jumia, my professional background includes experience in the manufacturing industry, as well as being a Human Resource consultant.
What I appreciate about Jumia is its inclusive culture. Jumia provides a work environment that values and respects the diversity of its employees. At Jumia individuals of different backgrounds, experiences, perspectives, and identities feel welcome, accepted, and valued.

I have learnt to think big at Jumia, always be solution minded and react as fast as possible. I love the working environment which has enabled me to grow tremendously.
I joined Jumia for the 2017 Black Friday edition as an Inbound temporary agent and got my contract as After sales agent in less than a year. I was promoted to Aftersales Manager in August 2019 to date.

El Mehdi Louridi
Outbound Manager - Logistics - Jumia Morocco
I have learnt a lot since I joined Jumia way back in 2016! At Jumia I have been cultured to think positively, do what is right not what is easy, manage a team, respect and nourish my work life balance and to be grateful and fair as a manager.
All our work and work environment culture are focused on how to satisfy both consumers and vendors and I enjoy that!
I started my professional career with Jumia as a VDO agent 5 years ago and moved to quality auditor in 2018. Today, I work as an Outbound Manager.

Uche Alisson
Head of Legal - Jumia Nigeria
As a legal practitioner with 17+ years professional experience in the areas of logistics and supply chain, finance, mergers and acquisitions, international business, energy and infrastructure, I recently joined Jumia in 2023 as Country Head of Legal, NG.
What I love most about Jumia is that the company has afforded me the opportunity to add value, be recognized and rewarded for adding such value. Indeed, Jumia lets the best people and ideas grow- one of the Company’s core values. A fast paced environment that presents a variety of opportunities to proffer solutions, my skills as a lawyer are enhanced day by day and I am loving every minute of working here.
