The people who built Cee4Bee.

Ayo co-founded Cee4Bee in 2015 and has served as its Strategic Delivery Lead, shaping how the charity turns an idea for an evening into a room full of people who did not know each other beforehand.

By profession he is a project and programme management practitioner with more than twenty years’ experience across banking, the NHS and local government. He joined the Greater London Authority in 2019 to build the programme management office for its Skills and Employment Unit, growing the team from two people to fifteen, and has been Assistant Director of Skills and Employment (Delivery) since July 2023 — work that carries oversight of a delivery portfolio running to hundreds of millions of pounds, including the Adult Education Budget for Londoners.

That combination is why Cee4Bee events tend to have a structure behind the warmth. Someone has thought about who is in the room, what they need, and what happens next.

Dotun co-founded Cee4Bee in 2015 and leads on organisation development. He has hosted Cee4Bee evenings from the front of the room, including The Time to Start is Now in January 2018.

A Fellow of the ACCA with more than twenty-six years of public sector experience, he has led Tridan Business Concepts Ltd for over ten years as Managing Director and Principal Consultant. He specialises in finance consultancy, strategic growth and performance transformation for education and public sector organisations.

He has supported more than a hundred schools and academies, managed complex multi-academy trust projects and delivered international consultancy. That expertise combines deep sector knowledge with practical leadership to improve financial governance, operational efficiency and sustainable growth — the same things a charity needs if it is going to outlast the people who started it.
