The head of Enterprise Business at Safaricom, Kriss Senanu, is leaving on May 31 “to pursue other interests”, the company said late on Thursday.

Mr Joseph Wanjohi will cover the role on an interim basis, Safaricom Chief Executive Peter Ndegwa said.

Senanu joined Safaricom in June 2021, a few months after leaving Telkom Kenya.

“He has been instrumental in implementing the Enterprise Business Unit’s first mission and development of the division’s second mission,” said Mr Ndegwa.

“During his time, he has re-established and enhanced Safaricom as a leader in the enterprise space, grown the mobility business, and initiated digital transformation initiatives to enable SME DIY (do it yourself) platforms. Kris has also worked to reduce the enterprise fixed churn.”

Joseph joined Safaricom in 2003 as the Sector Manager for Manufacturing and Energy. Since then, he has held various roles as Senior Manager Multinationals, Corporate Sales, Energy, Media and ICT before being appointed to his current role of Head of Enterprise Sales in 2017.

Joseph holds a Bachelor of Commerce Degree in Marketing.
