Faces of Jumia

Diane Asket

Central Project Manager - Cost Efficiency

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.

Business Operations - Jumia Global

Jumia is a company with a real vision and mission. We are building a digital Africa, connecting Africans with each other, bringing consumer goods and services to all. I share this vision and I am given the opportunity to actually play my part to make a change. It is not always easy but we believe that "where there’s a will, there’s a way".

Working at Jumia is fun. Each day is a surprise. I joined Jumia in 2019. It’s been over two years now, and I can still feel that I am learning everyday and improving myself at internet speed. Everyone is always willing to help. I can see and feel how great of a change I have made possible and really enjoy working with all my dear colleagues. Before Jumia I worked as an Amazon seller for about 2.5 years in the e-commerce industry, at Yihao Tech.

Head of Seller Engagement - Jumia Nigeria

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.

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.

Joan Katusiime

After Sales Manager - Jumia Uganda

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.
