Rocio Perez-Ochoa

Lorenza has made a great contribution to our business Bidhaa Sasa in Kenya. She built from scratch our HR department. She hired and trained a local head for the department and organised how we recruit, train and retain talent in the company. She was able to adapt to the Kenyan context and embrace and promote the culture of our startup, and always with a smile (even during frequent water and power cuts)!

Working with Lorenza was a great pleasure whilst at U.K. She is a sincere, honest and a passionate colleague with a keen and broad understanding of recruitment.
