About Olayemi
I am a Senior Product Manager with over 10 years of experience across healthtech, fintech, and social impact sectors in five global markets: UK, US, Africa, Europe, and the GCC. I work best in complex, multi-stakeholder environments where the product challenge requires both strategic clarity and practical delivery. My background spans early-stage startups and established organisations, so I understand what good product leadership looks like at different stages of growth. I am now taking on fractional engagements, offering 20 hours per week to organisations that need senior product thinking without a full-time hire. My focus is the African and EU markets, where I have direct experience and existing networks. What I bring to a fractional role: - Product strategy and roadmap ownership - Stakeholder alignment across technical and non-technical teams - Discovery, prioritisation, and delivery in Agile environments - Cross-market product experience across regulated and impact-driven sectors - Clear, plain communication that works across cultures and seniority levels If you are a founder, Head of Product, or CPO looking for a senior partner to drive product work on a part-time basis, I am open to conversation.
