Muritala Yusuf

Chief Technology Officer at FCMB UK

The Wharton School | Platform Infrastructure | 2022-2024

"Faith's technical depth is exceptional for a product manager. During our platform scaling, she was able to contribute to the microservices and database optimizations as well as the API design with the same fluency as business strategy. Rather than just handing off requirements, she collaborated on technical decisions, understood tradeoffs and shaped architecture for both current and future scale which quickly earned her the engineering team's trust."

Nneka Osuizugbe

Strategic Finance Leader | FCCA

Financial Modeling & Portfolio Analytics | 2020-present

"Faith's financial acumen sets her apart from most product managers I've worked with. She doesn't just think about features, she understands unit economics, portfolio performance, and P&L impact at a deep level. When we were building the credit engine, she could discuss NPL projections and capital efficiency with the finance team, then turn around and architect the technical solution with engineering. That cross-functional fluency is rare and incredibly valuable, especially in fintech."

Executive Director at VFD Group

Ahmadu Bello University | CDL Checkout Launch | 2014-2017

"Faith thinks strategically in a way that's rare for product managers. She doesn't just execute roadmaps; she shapes market strategy. During carbon finance expansion, she identified white space competitors missed, built partnerships that created moats, and positioned us to win enterprise deals. Her ability to see around corners, anticipating competitive moves, regulatory shifts, and market dynamics, made her invaluable at the executive table."

London Business School | CDL Checkout GTM | 2023-Present

"Faith has deep strategic perspective. Her ability to translate product vision into Go-To-Market success is exceptional. During our BNPL launch at Credit Direct, she didn't just build a great product but created a whole new business. She understood the sales motion, the distribution channels, positioned us competitively, and helped us close enterprise partnerships. That commercial awareness is what separates good PMs from great ones."
