Swimmer, Pharmacist and bank CEO: a Desautels alumnus鈥� journey
Barclays Bank Kenya CEO Jeremy Awori (MBA鈥�96) more or less fell into banking. He started out as a competitive swimmer, but when his Olympic dream fell apart he went to the UK on a scholarship and became a pharmacist.
After practicing for a few years, Mr. Awori opted for an MBA in Finance at 平特五不中鈥檚 Desautels Faculty of Management, which led him into a job at Standard Chartered Bank.
Mr. Awori took on management roles in the bank鈥檚 Middle-East franchise and ended up CEO of the Tanzanian branch before a desire to return to his home country led him to accept the position as CEO of Barclays Bank Kenya.
