Martine Billanou

Associate Principal Consultant, Europe

Martine Billanou

Martine has over 30 years of experience in International development. Before joining Oxford HR, she was the senior advisor to Alliance2015, a partnership of seven European NGOs.

Previously, Martine has worked with SNV and Save the Children UK as country director in Cameroon and DRC, Tanzania, Bangladesh and Eritrea. She developed strategies and structures that supported innovative and successful development and humanitarian response programs. This involved the set-up, selection and development of successful teams and included addressing key issues of ethics, accountability and safeguarding.

Martine’s expertise in the set-up and support of Consortia or other forms of inter-agency cooperation is supported by her strong understanding of organizational cultures and dynamics. She worked with a wide range of INGOs in Alliance2015, in various Commonwealth inter-agency initiatives both in Cameroon and in Tanzania or, earlier in her career, as general secretary of the Eritrea Inter-Agency Consortium.

An economist, graduated from Grenoble University, Martine started to work on performance analysis in the private sector.

It is so fulfilling and impactful to enable a successful recruitment! I interact with wonderful clients and candidates and working with an amazingly value-driven and supportive team makes it just perfect.
