Director - Corporate Investment and Planning
Engr. Tomilola Olatinwo

Engineer Tomilola Olatinwo’s story emerges within AEC GROUP’s growing community—a narrative spun with threads of resilience, innovation, and unwavering dedication. From the forge of internships to a pivotal seat on the board of directors, Engineer Olatinwo’s path embodies the essence of growth and excellence that defines AEC GROUP.
Tomilola’s journey began within the hallowed halls of the University of Lagos, where he honed his engineering acumen. Late nights in the library, chalk-dusted hands sketching out solutions, and the camaraderie of fellow students—all these experiences shaped him. But Tomilola’s hunger for knowledge knew no bounds. He set his sights on the distant shores of the University of Salford, where he delved into the intricacies of project management. His pursuit was relentless, fueled by a desire to learn and excel.
AEC GROUP isn’t just an organisation; it is a force that reshapes Nigeria’s engineering landscape. Tomilola witnessed this transformation firsthand. The AEC GROUP corridors buzzed with ideas that transcended blueprints and calculations. Innovation was the heartbeat of the company, and entrepreneurship coursed through its veins. Challenges were mere stepping stones, and opportunities sprouted where none seemed possible. AEC GROUP wasn’t content with being a consultancy firm; it aspired to be a catalyst for societal change. 

 

Tomilola’s leadership skills provide a huge boot to AEC GROUP’s developmental pillars. Behind AEC GROUP’s success lay its Unique Selling Propositions (USPs). These weren’t mere marketing jargon; they were the bedrock of everything AEC GROUP stood for. First, technical prowess—the ability to turn complex equations into tangible bridges and buildings. Second, proactive entrepreneurship—the audacity to dream big and then roll up sleeves to make those dreams a reality. And third, an unwavering commitment to quality and excellence. Safely, we can say Tomilola’s leadership breathed life into these pillars.
The Bayelsa Highway project was more than asphalt and steel. It was a testament to AEC GROUP’s engineering prowess. Tomilola led the charge, his eyes fixed on the horizon. The highway wasn’t just a road; it was a lifeline for communities, connecting dreams and destinies. As the ribbon was cut, he felt the weight of responsibility—the responsibility to build sustainably, leaving a legacy etched in concrete and asphalt. AEC GROUP’s journey didn’t end with the Bayelsa Highway.
Tomilola’s vision stretched beyond the horizon. He saw AEC GROUP as a beacon, guiding ships through uncharted waters. Growth wasn’t an option; it was inevitable. And talent—the raw material of progress—would be nurtured, shaped, and unleashed. AEC GROUP wasn’t just an industry player but a symphony conductor, orchestrating progress note by note.
Tomilola’s journey wasn’t about titles. It is about impact—the kind that echoes through generations. As the sun dipped below the AEC GROUP headquarters, casting long shadows, he knew this was more than a job. It was a calling—a calling to drive engineering into the future, one blueprint at a time.
