Olivia Hosie | Managing Director
Beyond Engagement

Olivia grew up in Australia and came to travel in Africa after school, and never left… Having fallen in love with the continent and the people, Olivia settled in the city of gold – Johannesburg in 2000 and embarked on a career within Talent Acquisition and Management. She then held two career defining roles as Head of Talent for AVI Limited, before business process re-engineering Talent within Nestle for the ZAR Region. In 2015, Olivia joined Nando’s Southern Africa as the Head of Talent, OD and Change Management, during which time she built a business case for the impact of employee engagement from analytics to remediation – with results that were impossible to ignore. Determined to take this to a broader audience where change impact could be realised throughout Africa, Olivia founded Beyond Engagement. Olivia is passionate about bridging the education deficit, reaching the unreachables and enabling companies to achieve business excellence through purpose-driven people.
