Faces of Jumia

Lynette Katuku

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.

Marcelle Monkam

CCO - Jumia Kenya

My journey at Jumia has been so far a great one, I joined Jumia in 2014 as an acquisition captain in Cameroon Coming from DIAGEO. 4 months after joining, I was promoted to Head of Seller Management and then Head of Category. Later on, I left Cameroon to join Jumia Senegal as CCO where I did 19 amazing months and presently I am the CCO for Jumia Kenya.
Looking back at these amazing years at Jumia, one thing I learned is to always challenge myself and get out of my comfort zone to grow. This has been so easy to achieve because Jumia is a stimulating environment that promotes people's growth and well-being. I am proud to be part of this multicultural team spread over 11 countries that have one main goal "Change African's lives through technology"
