executive council

Eyitope’s knack for finance began when he started work at Standard Chartered Bank over 12 years ago. He is currently at Union Bank of Nigeria tasked with the responsibility for providing corporate clients access to the financial market with strategies and solutions that mitigate their day-to-day risks.

Prior to this, he worked at Sterling Bank in various capacities.  Eyitope’s desire for giving back led to the founding of Helping Out Initiative, a private non-operating foundation that aims to help bridge the funding gap for NGOs, mainly early start-ups seeking to make societal impacts in the general welfare of the underprivileged. He is also a member of African Philanthropy Forum.

Eyitope is a fitness enthusiast – an avid squash player and runner. He holds a BSc from Igbinedion University and MSc from University of Hertfordshire.
