Victoria Sibeya appointed as new Namcor managing director

Namcor announced the appointment, which follows media reports that her selection had been approved by Cabinet. Namcor spokesperson Utaara Hoveka stated that Sibeya's strategic and ethical leadership is expected to strengthen Namcor's role in advancing national energy security, commercial resilience, and long-term value for stakeholders, especially as Namibia enters a transformative era in its energy sector. Sibeya joined the state oil company in 2006 and has served as Namcor's director of upstream exploration since 2019.

She has held various roles within the company, including being its first female geoscientist and an asset manager. Sibeya will be Namcor's sixth substantial managing director, succeeding Mtundeni Ndafyaalako, who has been acting managing director since March 1.
