AMINATA KANE NDIAYE

Aminata Kane Ndiaye, renowned as the first female telecommunications CEO in Sierra Leone, has led an illustrious career.

Between 2009 and 2011 she worked as a consultant for McKinsey & Company France, designing strategies and operations for telecommunication and technology providers, banks, and consumer goods manufacturers in Europe and West Africa.

This experience was invaluable, combined with internships at Goldman Sachs in London, BNP Paribas in Geneva, and at the French Business Confederation (MEDEF) in Paris.

“Before moving to Sierra Leone as the CEO, I had previously been the

B2C Marketing Performance Manager for Orange Sonatel in Senegal, in charge of strategy, sales and margin growth, return on investment, process efficiency, customer experience and loyalty retention,” Ndiaye adds. “Following this I became the Chief Marketing Officer for Orange Money, a business that has grown exponentially in the past four years.”
