Mavis Anagboso is the Global Head of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) at Harbour Energy, where she is responsible for shaping the company’s DEI strategy and ensuring its integration across all aspects of the organization. With over 20 years of experience in both the public and private sectors, Mavis brings a wealth of expertise in economics, supply chain, client relations, and human resources to her role, which feels like a homecoming given her deep roots in the oil and gas industry.

Born and raised in Warri, Nigeria, where her father worked for Shell, Mavis has fond memories of her close-knit family and her childhood in the oil-rich region. Although she initially dreamed of being an actor, a passion she still pursues through amateur theatre and a memorable appearance as an extra on Doctor Who, Mavis chose to study Economics and Statistics at the University of Benin. She later completed an MSc in International Economics, Banking, and Finance at Cardiff University.
