1. Chair, NEDs & IC members – Greenfield SME credit fund, Ghana
We were mandated by a DFI to build the board an IC of a greenfield SME debt platform which was seeded in US dollars but would lend in local currency. We placed a Chair, two NEDs and three IC members, who were all senior, well-connected Ghanaians with relevant debt/mezz experience. More than 50% of these placements were female.
2. Case Study - CEO, Asset Manager, Kenya
In line with the requirement to diversify an asset management business into adding a direct/co-investment (private) business, we were retained to find a CEO for this well-established East African Asset Management business. We ran a targeted search process in conjunction with internal candidates and those who applied to an advertisement. We successfully placed one of our directly targeted candidates into the role, who continues to go from strength to strength.
