01About

Given studied Computer Science at Caleb University in Lagos, then spent close to a year interning at Hanovia Limited in Abuja across finance, tax compliance, and logistics. He kept payments moving on time across several high-profile donor-funded projects, processed withholding tax across five states, and built tracking templates that made reconciliation faster than it used to be.

He brings a genuine technical background into that operational work, comfortable with data analysis, automation, and the tools that turn a messy process into a tracked one. Having since completed NYSC, he's looking for a graduate trainee or entry-level role in finance, operations, or data, where that mix of technical and operational skill can be put to use.

"Every payment reconciled, every filing on time, every vendor sourced. The job is making sure nothing falls through." ON A YEAR AT HANOVIA
