We’re hiring at Oui Capital! 🎬
We’re looking for a Video Editor & Creative Storyteller to join our team in Lagos.
We believe great video editing goes beyond cutting clips. It is about finding the story, capturing the right moments, and turning ideas into visual content that keeps people watching.
In this role, you’ll help shape the visual identity of OuiTalkPod, our podcast exploring entrepreneurship, investing, and business, while creating compelling video content that brings Oui Capital’s brand, founders, and stories to life.
What we’re looking for:
2–5 years of relevant professional experience in video editing or production.
Strong storytelling instincts, creativity and editorial judgement.
Proficiency in professional video editing software.
Experience with long-form videos, reels, trailers and other short-form content.
A strong portfolio or showreel that demonstrates your creative ability.
This is an opportunity for a creative professional who can do more than edit videos. We want someone who can develop ideas, experiment with different storytelling approaches, and turn great footage into meaningful visual stories.
Think you’re a good fit?
Apply here: shorturl.at/dygpM
Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.

From sourcing to pre-screening to due diligence, OuiOS helps us move faster.
But the final call is still human.

Felix, Our Co-founder and CTO, has been named one of @TIME’s 50 Executives of the Year for Tech and Data.
Alongside leaders of some of the biggest technology companies, research institutions, and global organisations.
Today, he leads our engineering team of 1,000+ people across multiple continents, building technology that helps millions of people and businesses access financial services every day.
And because we're allowed to brag a little today, Moniepoint is the only African-founded company represented on the list. But this is absolutely Felix's moment. Seeing African technology represented in a room like this? We'll take that too đź’™

In 2025, we invested in Alliance Chemicals
Today, the company has grown its revenue by 1,400% since it started.
The numbers are impressive. But what makes the story interesting is how two friends from Ibadan ended up building one of Africa’s most important industrial supply-chain companies.
Here’s the story 🧵
The company started in 2023.
Since then, Alliance has grown revenue by 1,400%, built a base of 60+ enterprise customers, and expanded across Nigeria and Kenya.
But the ambition goes beyond distributing chemicals.
Alliance is building the infrastructure around the supply chain: sourcing, financing, storage, testing, and distribution.
And now, it is moving towards local value addition and manufacturing.
That is what makes Alliance interesting to us.
Africa will need more factories to produce the food, medicine, homes, and goods its growing population demands.
Those factories will need reliable access to raw materials.
Some of the companies that make this possible will be software companies.
Others will be building the physical infrastructure behind Africa’s industrial future.
We said Oui to Alliance.

@OuiCapital turned $150K in @moniepoint into $8M — a 2x return on its debut fund.
What made it possible? Conviction, patience and disciplined portfolio building.

Last month, our Principal, @SaeedSeghosime decided it was time to have a different kind of conversation with founders.
As a former founder, he knows building in Africa is hard. So he created a space where founders could talk to investors without the usual formality.
Ask A VC was born.
No pitch decks. No formalities. Just founders, investors, and people curious about entrepreneurship asking questions, exchanging ideas, and having a real conversation.
We started on X Spaces last month and had an incredible time. But

We want more people in the room.
So this month, Ask A VC is moving to Google Meet. Same informal format, just a bigger room for founders, builders, investors, and entrepreneurship enthusiasts from Africa and beyond.
September 30. Come join us.

In 2019, we invested $150K in a company called TeamApt.
Five years later, that investment became $8M.
Here's the story. 🧵
But the return isn't really the story.
The interesting part is what happened before the return.
When we invested, TeamApt wasn't a household name. Moniepoint wasn't a unicorn. There was no billion-dollar valuation to point to.
There was a founder, a team, a market, and a thesis.
