We Built the Companies.
We Need You to Run Them.
Enterprise Village has already done the hard part — the research, the product build, the initial capital. We are now looking for experienced operators to step in as CEO, get the first customers, and grow these companies.
Applications close in 30 days. Only 3–5 spots available.
Most people who want to run a company never do.
Not because they lack the skill — but because starting from zero is brutal. Finding the idea, raising the money, building the product, getting the first customers. By the time most people figure it out, years have passed and momentum is gone.
We have already solved that.
Our team has spent months identifying real problems in Ghana's most important sectors and building the products to solve them.
What we need now is the right person to walk in, take the wheel, and drive it forward.
What You Are Walking Into
From day one, you are not starting a company. You are running one.
A Company That Already Exists
The problem has been researched. The product has been built. The sector has been chosen — AgriTech, HealthTech, Logistics, SME Finance, or BPO. Your job is to take it to market and get the first customers. You pick the one that fits you best.
A Team Behind You
You are not alone. You get a dedicated product and engineering squad, the full Enterprise Village network, and direct access to Edison and the founding team. We are invested in your success.
A Salary and a Stake
You receive a monthly stipend from day one, a workspace at EV, and meaningful equity in the company you are running. You are not an employee — you are a co-owner.
Who We Are Looking For
We are not looking for people with great ideas. We already have those. We are looking for people who know how to execute.
You have run something before
A team, a department, a business unit, or a company. You know what it means to be accountable for results — not just activity.
You make decisions and move fast
You do not wait for perfect information. You gather what you need, decide, and adjust. Speed and clarity under pressure are your default.
You want ownership, not just a job
You are done working hard to build someone else's dream. You want equity, upside, and the chance to build something that is yours — with the right support behind you.
Common Questions
Answers to what most people ask before applying.
What kind of companies have you already built?
We have built products across five sectors: Export & Logistics, AgriTech & Cold Chain, Health & e-Pharmacy, SME Fintech, and BPO. The problems have been researched, the products have been built, and the markets are defined. What is missing is the right person to take each product to its first customers and scale it. That is the job.
How much equity will I receive?
Typically 10–30% vested equity, depending on the company, your experience, and the value you bring. The exact terms are discussed during the selection process. You are not joining as an employee. You are joining as a co-founder and CEO.
Is there a salary from day one?
Yes. You receive a monthly stipend from the day you start, plus a dedicated workspace at Enterprise Village. This is not a volunteer arrangement — we are serious about this being a full-time, compensated role.
Do I need startup experience?
No. We are looking for people who know how to run things — not people who have necessarily run startups. If you have managed a team, run a department, built a business unit, or led a regional operation, your experience is exactly what we need.
Is this only in Accra, Ghana?
The companies are based in Ghana with continental ambitions. You do not need to be Ghanaian, but you need to be willing to be in Accra for the core operations. We welcome applications from the diaspora and from across Africa.
What if I still have a full-time job?
This is a full-time commitment. We understand transitions take time and we are happy to discuss a realistic start date if you are currently employed. But from day one of joining, we need you fully in.
How long is the commitment?
We think in years, not months. The initial agreement covers the first 12 months with a formal review at the six-month mark. If things are working — for both sides — this becomes a long-term partnership.
What happens if it does not work out?
We have an honest conversation early rather than letting a bad fit drag. There is a formal review at the six-month mark. If it is not working for either side, we exit cleanly, part well, and both move on. We would rather do that than grind through something that is not right.
The company is ready.
