Africa has a gap, as a continent. The continent being written about how technology, e-commerce, digital transformation and social networks works isn't always published from here. Nendo exists to fill this gap. Since the day we began in 2014, we've worked on delivering work we can be proud of. Work that can stand the test of time. For smart insights from local eyes like ours. We deliver regional perspective and publishing our local voices for a global impact. As Nendo, our clients trust us because we're relentless learners who focus on making them successful.
Nendo is a digital growth consultancy delivery value through 3 practices:
Advisory - we think, research, plan, audit and direct our clients visions and roadmaps to digital transformation
Academy - we teach, train, educate and empower our clients to use their existing experience to deliver change from within
Agency - we define and deliver digital branding, marketing, and communications services to our clients to achieve their goals.
As a team, we believe in working with trust, respect and putting in the (often hard) work to get better. Teammates at Nendo frequently punch above their weight as a result of the work they put in. As a team, we believe each present and future teammate works on themselves and practices our values. We show up and expect high achievement from everyone around us.
We expect this work ethic to translate in a team setting, when practicing under the Nendo brand to deliver our content. You can see our body of work on our YouTube channel, newsletter, reports and more. We don't just work for our clients, we work for ourselves and the continent. We show up daily committed to shrinking the gap by raising our voices and building a community along the way.
This team practice and discipline shows up best when we're in front of our clients. We deliver smart insights, big visions, robust audits and creative problem solving for our clients. Our work resonates on the world-stage and represents the continent because we push ourselves, our teammates and our clients to new levels of achievement.
As Nendo’s ideal candidate for digital strategist you’ll have noticed this and worked hard to distinguish yourself, your process and your practice. You’ll have a broad lens on digital and personal convictions about what it means in the Kenyan and African contexts. You will have ideas of what works and doesn’t work. You’ll bring to the table experiments, failures and some battle-tested ideas that you can translate to results.
We'd like to believe we're setting ourselves at Nendo to solve the toughest challenges digital brings - both for agencies and clients alike. With this in mind, as Nendo's digital strategist, you'll find yourself executing on projects such as:

At Nendo, we work as a team. As professionals we aim to show up in the small and big details to have an impact on our clients, our teammates, the industry and the continent.
We consistently run experiments on Nendo platforms as ‘practice’ for client situations. We stay prepared, purposeful and practical. We care about our craft. Our values are critical to understand who we are and what it means to be a part of our team. We've made sacrifices to put these values first and will seek them out in any and every teammate to join us. We expect you will take the time to read and internalise them.
Each teammate at Nendo aims to show up daily with: a growth mindset, a positive attitude, the commitment be focus and exert effort, the desire to exhibit initiative, as described by Covey's The 8th Habit, the decision to show ownership and the persistence to seek understanding from their fellow teammates and clients.
At Nendo, you’ll be joining great thinkers, doers, collaborators, and partners. “Nomads” are specialists, mavericks, freelancers and consultants who pitch in on projects. “Natives” are people you’ll work with daily; the core team. People you will be sitting next to at lunch, exchanging notes and ideas on Basecamp and headed to meetings with. The everyday team that keeps everything running.
We see ourselves similar to a sports team/franchise. This means across roles, we're looking for A-players with the right mix of potential, domain knowledge and experience. To define these in more detail:
As an ideal member of our team, you stand out because (in your own way), you represent our philosophy of 'practice' and 'game time.' Similar to an athlete, you show up for your own 'practice' i.e. spending time learning, refining your craft and making daily improvements.
You are then able to bring such learnings and an attitude into a team environment to coordinate on Nendo assets, test new ideas and initiate new projects. Lastly, the learnings and continual experiences gained in your personal work and team work allow you to deliver above-average work and results on client projects and situations.
