Equity Bank Group Work Values

Daily Duties at Equity Bank Group:

While serving as a Chief Information Officer, I established a systematic IT team through internal education, training, and mentoring. I supported the CEO and executive teams in defining the Equity 3.0 business vision and roadmap by applying Enterprise Architecture concepts. I instituted a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) which supported the next generation of mobile banking platforms. I defined the vision of Industrialized IT and fundamental architecture and completed initial SOA implementation. The following are highlights of the value I have brought to the company: • Transformed the Equity Bank IT into an industrialized, method-driven IT to support the bank’s overall transformation program. • Exemplified Equity IT’s vision and mission, appointed the theme of IT Industrialization to support the bank’s financial inclusion, and guide the enhancement of IT. • Accomplished system stability in High Availability through the utilization of proper architecture discipline. • Champion the creation of a concept for IT Commoditization for East Africa, partnered with Governments, other financial institutes, and commercial entities in building a community to commoditize certain layers of IT, promote Technology Inclusion for Africa, and secure the macroeconomic environment.

What they like about Equity Bank Group:

Working for a company with an emphasis on social values and helping society is a clear and important priority for you - a critical factor in who you choose to work for. In contrast to other factors, you place an organization's reputation for fairness and concern for the community above most other aspects of the company. As you search for a new job opportunity, it is usually possible to find out if the company is involved in the community and/or if it is addressing problems and issues in society. Pay special attention to non-profit organizations and those specifically involved in social action. Moreover, speaking with current and former employees should enlighten you to perceptions of the fairness of the company's leaders and the treatment of employees.
