Letshego Holdings Namibia is delighted to appoint Kgomotso Hochobeb as its head of internal audit.

With two decades of distinguished record in auditing, risk management and forensics, Hochobeb is set to enhance Letshego Namibia’s dedication to achieving operational excellence.

Her dedication to innovation is what inspired her journey to Letshego Namibia.

“It has always been one of my milestones to contribute to the success of a commercial bank, specifically Letshego Namibia, an organisation renowned for its commitment to innovation,” said Hochobeb.

In her new role, Hochobeb will provide strategic and technical leadership to Letshego Namibia’s independent in-house internal audit function, advising on its operational control environment and risk management practices.

She will oversee the development of internal audit strategies, implement leading practices, and maintain robust audit programmes and advisory services.

Hochobeb’s career began at PwC as a trainee external auditor and evolved into pivotal roles such as an internal auditor at NamPower and as the chief risk officer at the BoN.

At the executive level, Hochobeb has excelled as group head of internal audit and risk management at MMI Namibia Holdings Ltd, executive internal auditor at NamPost, and most recently as head of internal audit and risk management at Telecom Namibia.

Wide-ranging roles

In addition to these esteemed roles, Hochobeb is a member of the Institute of Internal Audit South Africa and the Institute of Risk Management South Africa. She also contributed significantly, first as a member trustee of the finance, actuarial and audit committee and then chairperson for the Namibia Postal and Telecommunication Pension Fund (NAPOTEL). Her leadership ensured that the fund operated in the best interests of its members, upholding high standards of fiduciary responsibility and institutional accountability.

Hochobeb holds a bachelor’s in accounting science and a certificate in risk-based internal auditing from the University of South Africa, alongside the completion of external audit articles under the Public Accountants and Auditors Board Namibia (PAAB).

“I am honoured to be entrusted with such a rewarding and challenging role. My focus will be on fostering regular engagements with stakeholders to enhance their welfare and build strong relationships, laying the foundation for sustainable success,” said Hochobeb.

Letshego Holdings Namibia is confident that Hochobeb’s expertise will strengthen its commitment to transparency and continuous growth.
