IBM has announced the appointment of Angela Kyerematen-Jimoh as
Country General Manager, IBM Ghana.
She succeeds Joe Mensah who served as IBM Ghana Country General
Manager for the past five years. Ms. Kyerematen-Jimoh will be
responsible for all of IBM’s
Sales, Marketing, Services and Global Delivery Operations in Ghana.
She is a seasoned marketer with extensive experience in client
relationship management, after working in the financial services and
technology industries in Africa and Europe for the past 15 years.
She joined IBM in 2011 as the Territory Marketing Manager responsible
for IBM West Africa, and later moved to Nairobi, Kenya as Strategy
Leader for IBM’s
Central, East and West Africa operations. Kyerematen-Jimoh will
oversee IBM’s business in Ghana’s fast growing Financial Services, Oil
& Gas, Telecommunications and Government sectors, with a focus
on deploying IBM’s advanced technology capabilities in Cloud
Computing, Big Data and Analytics, Mobile and Security to solve
current and future needs of institutions in these key economic sectors.
Ms. Kyerematen-Jimoh is a graduate of Harvard Business School in
Leadership Development and holds a BA in Marketing and French. Mr.
Mensah will be retiring
from IBM after a successful 32-year
career at the company.
Under his leadership, he reestablished IBM’s corporate presence in
Accra and deepened IBM’s support for clients and
partners in Ghana. Mensah has
been instrumental in leading
technology projects across different
key industries in the country
focusing on banking and financial
services.
“Joe Mensah’s leadership over the last five years has certainly
established IBM as a leading contributor to Ghana’s economic
development agenda. I look forward to building on this legacy and
growing our partnerships with public and private sector organizations
in Ghana and in the West Africa sub region, which is increasingly
integral to our business strategy across the African continent,” says
Kyerematen-Jimoh.
