Our Story

Founded to Bridge Talent with Opportunity

Employy was founded in 2024 in Atlanta, GA by two Nigerian-born founders who saw a disconnect between the abundance of talented professionals in Africa and the global demand for skilled workers.

In its earliest days, Employy quickly attracted businesses seeking top-tier African professionals without the usual recruiting overhead. The platform was built with a singular focus: making it seamless for companies to hire exceptional African talent.

Today, Employy powers multiple services including uSoma, connecting families with expert African tutors for personalized online education.
