Faces of Jumia

Jorge Correia

Senior Engineering Manager - PTC

It's been years of constant challenges that have provided me with the ideal environment for professional growth. Together, the freedom and trust that is placed on employees are fundamental factors for building a successful career. I feel proud to contribute to the company's growth and happy to see how Jumia empowers people's development.

I joined Jumia in 2015 as a Junior web developer and became a Technical Lead. Since then I've worked in internal tools for user access management, software for customer communications and Jumia website search engine.
My background before I joined Jumia was mainly related to software development for healthcare institutions, working for Alert Life Sciences Computing

Elisée Alle

Expansion Manager - Jumia Côte d'Ivoire

"You don't need a title to be a leader" at Jumia. That is my motto: there is a leader in each of us, so we must be ambitious and act on it. I really like the simplicity and availability of the management teams, the friendly and warm work environment as well as the availability and kindness of the HR.
I joined Jumia in February 2015 as Customer Service Agent and changed roles 3 times before being promoted to Customer Experience Manager in August 2017 and moving to a role of JForce Expansion Manager in 2019.

Maha Helwa

Senior Backend Developer - Jumia Egypt

Jumia is a leading African player in the FinTech arena. To me, it represents an opportunity to learn and participate in building Africa's digital economy for a huge market and witness the impact we can have on people's lives. I realize how today's techologies can help out both consumers and vendors to have such a secure and satisfactory online experience that is more enjoyable and smarter than a personal assistant in your own pocket.

I joined JumiaPay in July 2019 as senior backend developer and since then I have been working in the payment integration team.
Before Jumia, I was working at Seal-Software specializing in contract analysis, as senior software engineer, at Oracle as application Engineer, and EDS as information associate.

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.

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.
