Faces of Jumia
I started off as an intern in Jumia over 6 years ago and I have since changed roles 4 times in 5 years! What I have learnt in Jumia is that where there is a will, there is a way and that I should never content with little if I can bring more to the table.
I believe women will play a pivotal role as leaders in Africa’s e-commerce journey and I love how Jumia empowers women and gives them opportunity to grow even with little experience. As a leader, I share and assume my team’s opinions and help them grow.
I am currently the Central Project Manager on Cost Efficiency.
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.
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 am currently the Head of Marketplace at Jumia Nigeria where I lead our efforts to acquire new sellers & brands while ensuring we have strong growth partnerships with existing sellers across multiple categories. I began my Jumia journey in 2014 as Sourcing Associate and have transitioned through various roles from Operations to Commercial. I am highly skilled in Business Planning, Analysis & Strategy and passionate about changing people’s lives through technology.
What I love most about working at Jumia are the strong friendships I have built over time and the always available learning opportunities arising from our ambition to achieve big goals.
