Come and do the work that makes companies investable.
We advise, restructure and fund founder-led African businesses. The people who do that well are curious about how a company actually runs, patient with messy records, and unwilling to send out work they would not sign.
Founders’ Conclave by Crimson Oak — Lagos
Partner-led, always
Every mandate has a partner on it from the first meeting to close. You learn beside someone who has done the work, not from a deck.
You see the whole company
Our clients are founder-led. That means ownership, governance, numbers and operations all sit on the same table — and you work across all of it.
Written work matters
Models get interrogated and memos get read by investment committees. Precision on the page is part of the job, not an afterthought.
Lagos and Abuja
We work where our clients are. Expect time on site with management teams, not only in a boardroom.

Nothing fits, but you fit us
