Angelikey Rofael
Chief Marketing Officer - Egypt & KSA @ Khazna
About
I've always been fascinated by the tension between rational and irrational decision-making and how great marketing lives exactly in that gap. That curiosity has shaped 16 years of building brands across some of the world's most demanding categories: FMCG, beverages, health tech, and now fintech. Today, I'm CMO at Khazna, leading financial super app for the unbanked and underserved segments. I am owning brand strategy, marketing communications, and go-to-market execution across Egypt and KSA, where consumer insight, brand equity, and commercial growth converge. My career has taken me from Mondelez and Heineken to Vezeeta and Dr. Oetker, where I've led full marketing functions, grown market shares, launched digital products, built and mentored teams, and managed portfolios up to €150M. I've worked on global brands and local champions, in mature markets and high-growth ones. What ties it all together isn't the brands, it's a consistent approach: turn insight into strategy, strategy into ideas, and ideas into measurable growth. Research, Media, ATL, BTL, Digital, Sponsorships and Partnerships - I think in systems, not silos. I care as much about developing people as I do about growing brands. Some of the work I'm most proud of is the talent I've helped unlock along the way. If you're building something ambitious in FMCG, tech, or fintech or thinking about brand, equity, growth, or go-to-market; I'd definitely enjoy the conversation.
