Happy New Week! Today on our employee spotlight is Cynthia-Ezéchiel K., Treasury Analyst in Côte d’Ivoire. This is her story: "As someone who loves a good challenge, I jumped on the Wave train in November 2021. I was impressed by its mission to provide everyone with high-quality, low-cost financial services. Working here has been a great experience, both professionally and socially. From my very first day, I was greeted with warmth and friendliness. I feel lucky to work with talented, supportive colleagues who make my job easier. At Wave, ‘’we don’t wait—we live our fullest lives now.' Work-life balance is a top priority, and taking time off to care for your mental and physical health is encouraged. I'm thrilled to be a part of this amazing adventure and to contribute to the challenge of making Africa cashless. It's an experience that fills me with joy and purpose." Thank you Cynthia for sharing your story with us. It's wonderful to hear that you've found a supportive and friendly team at Wave, and we hope you continue to feel fulfilled in your role. 💙 #treasuryjobs #treasuryanalyst #missiondriven #teamcollaboration #learningandgrowing #worklifebalance #fintech #mobilemoney #cotedivoire
It's that time of the week again - Fridayyyy!!!😎 Very recently, our HR & Facilities Lead in Senegal, Corneille Towendo tied the knot with his lovely wife, Cynthia.

Hey there!✨ We are pleased to spotlight Isaac Perez Moncho, our Director of Engineering, who joined Wave in September 2023. Here’s how Isaac recounts the journey so far: “I was looking for a company with positive social impact, good people, interesting technical challenges, and growth potential. Wave ticked all the boxes during the interview process and my due diligence. I love working at Wave for many reasons; one is that there is no “productivity theater”; busy work doesn’t get you anywhere at Wave. The focus is on delivering the most important things; everyone is empowered to do so. Additionally, the people at Wave are friendly, welcoming, and focused on helping the company succeed. Working in a company where values are lived by every day is refreshing. Two Wave values resonate with me the most - "Embarrassingly honest" and "maximizing our rate of learning". I always try to improve, learn, and foster those values in the organizations I lead. On being embarrassingly honest, the culture of open by default suits me very well. I don’t need to worry about hiding how specific processes work because transparency is expected at Wave. One of my best experiences working at Wave was at the Dakar airport. A security personnel recognized me as a Wave employee and spent five minutes expressing how much he loved the company. It's inspiring to see how Wave is positively impacting people's lives." Isaac, thank you for sharing your experience with us.
It's Friday, and we are excited to bring some positive vibes your way! 🤩 A small group of our Support team members in Senegal recently organized a hang-out and took these lovely pictures to capture the moment. You already know - our squad knows how to go beyond the office walls to bond and have a great time. Here’s hoping you have a wonderful weekend as well….. ✨ Enjoy!
Happy Friday! At Wave, we promote a healthy work-life balance and a positive work environment where everyone feels valued. It's always great to see the team bonding over shared interests, like watching an AFCON match at the office or celebrating a win. This week, some of our team members in Côte d'Ivoire and Burkina Faso had a great time watching a few games together, and you can tell from the pictures how much fun they had. 😎 Have a great weekend, and remember to take some time to unwind! 💙 #fridayfunday #afcon2024 #footballmatch #worklifebalance #positivevibes #teambonding #celebratetogether #cotedivoire #burkinafaso #fintech
Happy New Week! We are thrilled to spotlight Bagni Arnold Manasse BAZIE, Distribution Admin Manager, who is based out of Burkina Faso. This is his story: "I joined Wave in November 2021 after an amazing recruitment process. What drew me to Wave was its reputation for innovative digital financial services and its mission of financial inclusion. In my current role, I coordinate all distribution activities and provide solutions to issues hindering the distribution team from achieving its objectives. The work environment at Wave is fast-paced, and I love the diversity of ideas from all directions, often leading to innovative solutions to problems. At Wave, our value of "Maximizing our rate of learning" aligns perfectly with my principles and values. Collaborating with a company that shares these core principles is truly inspiring, and I feel lucky to be a member of the Wave team." Thank you, Arnold, for sharing your journey, and we wish you continued success in your role. 💙

It’s more than just a professional opportunity; it's a chance to be part of a meaningful movement shaping the continent's future. I love working at Wave because of the dynamic and inclusive community where I can contribute meaningfully while evolving personally and professionally. Emphasizing work-life balance and a supportive environment allows me to bring my best self to work daily. At Wave, ‘we don’t wait—we live our fullest lives now.' I believe life should be approached with a proactive spirit, living in the present and making the most of each moment.
