Overview
I've spent 15 years turning marketing complexity into revenue. Not the kind of revenue that looks good on a slide. The kind that shows up in quarterly results and sticks around. I'm the founder and CEO of MarketEdge Advisory, a premium marketing consultancy operating across Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya.

I've spent 15 years turning marketing complexity into revenue. Not the kind of revenue that looks good on a slide. The kind that shows up in quarterly results and sticks around. I'm the founder and CEO of MarketEdge Advisory, a premium marketing consultancy operating across Nigeria, Ghana, and Kenya. My clients include the British Council (their primary creative services provider for Sub-Saharan Africa), Food Concepts, the parent company of Chicken Republic, Wema Bank, and Verto, among others. The work spans brand strategy, growth marketing, campaign execution, loyalty programs, and market entry. What connects it all is a simple belief: marketing that doesn't move a commercial needle isn't marketing, it's decoration. Before founding MarketEdge, I held senior marketing roles at Jumia Nigeria, Wakanow, and ShopexTV, where I led the team that built Africa's first omni-channel tele-shopping platform. That experience taught me how to build marketing infrastructure from scratch, which turns out to be the most valuable thing you can know how to do. I'm also an ICF-certified executive coach and the founder of The Olajumoke Coaching Company, where I work with senior leaders navigating high-stakes transitions. And in April 2026, I published my first book, 'WINGING IT! ...Because Nobody Told Us Adulting Would Be This Hard', a practical and honest guide to the parts of grown-up professional life nobody prepares you for. Right now I'm exploring senior marketing leadership roles, VP Marketing, Head of Marketing, or fractional CMO engagements, with forward-thinking companies that operate remotely and want someone who brings both strategic depth and executional muscle. If your company is building something ambitious and needs a marketing leader who has done this across multiple markets, industries, and budget sizes, let's talk. Based in Lagos. Available globally.
