Culture that connects

We believe great things happen when people collaborate. While our teams work in diverse markets—from the urban bustle of Nairobi to remote mining sites in Zambia—we’re connected by a culture that emphasizes:

  • Collaboration over command
  • Innovation over routine
  • Agility in the face of dynamic challenges
  • Clarity of vision at all levels

What we value

We’re proud to be a values-driven company. Our core beliefs guide how we work and how we treat each other. Respect, Integrity, Vigilance, and Trust. These values are not just words on a poster; they’re how we hire, lead, and grow.

Diversity that reflects Africa

Our workforce mirrors the vibrant diversity of the continent. From seasoned veterans with decades of service to young professionals just starting out, our team represents countless languages, tribes, and cultures.

You’ll work alongside colleagues from across Africa and beyond.

Real community connection

Our people care deeply about the communities they come from. That’s why our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs matter.

From tree-planting to scholarships for employees’ children, we don’t just work in communities—we uplift them.

Balance matters

We work hard—but we also understand life doesn’t stop when you leave the office. From team lunches to marathons, sporting matches, and yoga sessions, we make space for connection, rest, and fun. Because building a great team means supporting the whole person.
