Andela, the global marketplace for technical talent, has appointed Carrol Chang as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective from September 17, 2024. 

Carrol Chang, who previously held a senior leadership role at Uber as global head of Driver and Courier Operations, will also join Andela’s Board of Directors. 

She succeeds Jeremy Johnson, the co-founder of Andela, who will continue to serve on the board but steps down as CEO.

Chang’s appointment comes at an important moment for Andela, a company that started as an innovative African startup and has grown into a billion-dollar unicorn. 

Known for her ability to scale businesses, particularly during times of rapid growth, Carrol Chang is seen as the right leader to guide Andela into its next phase.

Her experience in expanding Uber’s driver network to nearly seven million individuals across 70 countries reveals her capability to manage large-scale operations and thrive in complex global markets.

Speaking about her new role, Chang said, “It is an honour to lead a mission-driven company like Andela. The opportunity to shape the future of the global talent market, valued at $8.5 trillion, is both exciting and challenging. I am eager to continue Andela’s mission of connecting top-tier talent with global opportunities.”

Chang’s leadership experience spans beyond Uber, with roles at McKinsey & Company, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, and various international organisations focused on education and economic development. 

Her mixed background is expected to bring fresh perspectives to Andela as it continues to refine its business model and expand its global footprint.

Jeremy Johnson, reflecting on his decade-long journey with Andela, is positive about Chang’s ability to lead the company forward. He noted, “The digital transformation of global hiring is just beginning, and Carrol is the perfect leader to drive Andela’s next chapter. Her strategic vision and deep understanding of marketplace dynamics will be crucial as we work towards becoming the world’s most trusted talent marketplace.”

Founded in 2014, Andela has trained over 110,000 technologists from more than 135 countries, greatly contributing to job creation and career development globally. 

With Chang, Andela aims to continue its mission of bridging the gap between skilled professionals and global employers, strengthening its place in grooming leaders across the global talent marketplace.
