Swire Energy Services

I joined Swire Energy Services Nig Limited in October 2011 as a fresh university graduate looking for something to get by. I was offered an opportunity at Swire Energy Services Nig. Ltd. (then Prime Leasing West Africa Ltd.) to relieve an employee at the reception where my main duties were to welcome visitors and take calls. By a sheer twist of fate, the job was confirmed and made permanent. After a few years, I was reassigned to the position of Non-Fleet Procurement Officer, where I learnt how the procurement process works. In June of 2018, I was appointed the HSEQ Supervisor for Nigeria, where I supported the implementation of procedures to keep employees and visitors safe. Just last year, the team achieved 4,000 days LTI-free status in addition to various awards and commendations from the SES Group, customers, and governmental regulatory agencies. Today, as the HSEQ Manager for Nigeria and West Africa, I look back on my career development and growth as a testament to the fact that Swire Energy Services is an excellent training ground for anyone who dares to dream. In all my 12 years of employment, I have enjoyed the support of management, cordial relationships with my colleagues, and a good work-life balance, as evidenced by the fact that despite my workload, I have enough time to fulfil my roles as a wife and mom and contribute my best to my community. I look forward to a continually fruitful and peaceful career in SESNL, knowing that together we will keep doing great things.

My career with Swire Energy Services began June 2009, and I have been fortunate to climb up through the ladder within the Operations department. I started as a Maintenance Operative and worked for two years in that role. With the support of SES, I got the requisite training to become a certified NDT/lifting Inspector. In 2011, I was appointed to the role of an NDT Inspector/Test Engineer, where I worked for two years and later became the Lead NDT Inspector for another two years. In that role, I was responsible for ensuring that the NDT Inspector/Test Engineers’ and Compliance Coordinator’s reports were interpreted correctly, and the results evaluated with respect to applicable codes, standards, and specifications. Thereafter, I was promoted to the role of Operations Supervisor, where I served for two years with the responsibility of supporting the Operations Management Team, in the management of the key processes required to ensure a Safe, Efficient & Cost-Effective Operations. I currently serve as the operations Manager, where I have spent the last eight years in ensuring that the key operational objectives are meet for the business needs in Nigeria. My 15 years at SES have been awesome, I have enjoyed working in different roles and, had the opportunity to learn from many role models. I am happy to be a part of this great organization and look forward to greater opportunities in future.
