In a bid to attract top talent and spur exponential growth, MTN Rwanda announces a new appointment of Mark Nkurunziza as its new Chief Financial Officer yesterday June 2019, replacing Mrs. Lily Zondo, who served as CFO from 2016.

Mark joins MTN with over 20 years of extensive leadership experience in the financial services sector, specifically, in Financial Management and Risk Management. Before joining MTN Rwanda, he was the Chief Financial Officer for 6 years at the Rwanda Development Board and had a stint in the aviation industry when he served at the National Airline, RwandAir, as a Finance Manager from 1998 to 2004.

He seems to be familiar with the company since he had also worked at MTN as a Senior Financial Manager between 2004 and 2012.

Speaking about the appointment, MTN’s CEO, Bart Hofker, said,:“Under Mark Nkurunziza’s executive leadership as Chief Financial Officer, we are embarking upon a very exciting phase of our journey of growth and development. We are happy to welcome him, and I am confident that he will bring immense value to the MTN Rwanda’s team.

I am pleased to be rejoining an iconic company such as MTN Rwanda and I look forward to my new role in supporting the delivery of the bright strategy,” he said.

Lily Zondo has been integrally involved in accelerating service revenue growth driven by the implementation of MTN’s operational strategy.

Our financial position continues to be strong and we appreciate Lily Zondo’s years of service to the company,” concluded Mr Hofker.
