A participant in GXO’s two-year graduate programme, Ojo-Osagie extended her time to participate in the Transaid work.

She said: “The secondment with Transaid was mentioned in my initial induction at GXO, but I wasn’t sure it was going to be an option for me because of scheduling. The extension was an opportunity I couldn’t refuse, and it has been life-changing so far. I feel very fortunate that Transaid created space for me within their organisation.”

Thelma Ayisi, project manager for Transaid in Ghana, said: “The secondees who join us every year are a testament to GXO as an organisation.

“They are always excellent additions to our team and offer impressive levels of expertise and professionalism.

“Kemi is no different and is already proving to be a fantastic colleague, and we’re excited for the opportunities she is going to have with us over the coming months.”
