Momentum Metropolitan Namibia has recognised 115 employees for their long service to the company, celebrating a combined 665 years of dedication.
Staff members who reached 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 years of service were formally acknowledged for their continued contribution to the business.
The recognition comes as the company marks 56 years of operating in Namibia’s financial services sector. With a workforce of over 1,000 people, Momentum Metropolitan says the event reflects a culture rooted in loyalty and purpose.
Among those celebrated was Hileni Iyambo, a Client Services Administrator based in Oshakati, who has been with the company for 25 years.
“Marking 25 years with Momentum Metropolitan Namibia is a proud moment for me,” she said.
“Though I work behind the scenes, processing claims, I know my role helps bring clients peace of mind during difficult times.”
Mateus Namhila, a Metropolitan Sales Manager based in Swakopmund, reached his 15-year milestone.
“This is truly the best company to work for.The exposure I’ve gained over the years has shaped me into the leader I am today. It is more than just a workplace; it is a place of growth and opportunity,” he said.
The company currently employs 1,011 people across Namibia. According to Executive Human Capital, Collin Katjitae, the high levels of employee retention are a reflection of its values.
“Behind every year of service is a story of passion, growth and belonging,” he said. “When a company values its people, they remain invested and that loyalty becomes part of the legacy we build together.”
Momentum Metropolitan reports an average staff tenure of 6.8 years, which it says exceeds industry norms, where tenures typically fall below five years.
The company attributes its strong retention rate to a culture centred on respect, development and a shared mission.
