TENDAI MTAWARIRA TO HEAD UP UMLINDI SECURITY

Umlindi Security officially welcomes Tendai “Beast” Mtawarira to the helm as Chief Executive Officer and shareholder for the newly launched company. As Tendai transitions from his professional rugby career into the corporate world, he is the perfect fit for the fledgling company.

Wahl Bartmann, Group Chief Executive officer of Fidelity Services Group says, “Tendai has been a part of  Fidelity for close on 9 years now as our brand ambassador. The two met through a chance encounter eight years ago and become close friends, with Bartmann eventually taking on a mentorship role for Mtawarira.   I have enjoyed my time as his mentor and collaborating on a number of  different projects which have all been successful. It was only a matter of time before the skills he gained would assist him to start his own company.”

According to Bartmann, Mtawarira’s natural flair and strength as a professional rugby player and his business acumen are well suited to the requirements of a new business venture.  Mtawarira is currently studying toward his MBA.

“Being a businessman has excited me for a long time because it combines many of the core values I needed in my rugby career like teamwork, innovation, commitment, continuous self-improvement and having fun,” says Mtawarira.

“Over the past few years, Mtawarira has worked closely with me, shadowing me and joining me at many company events and meetings,” says Bartmann.

Once the formation of Mtawarira’ s new company entered its final stages Mtawarira was enrolled at the Henley Business School MBA program to further prepare him for his new role as a businessman with Umlindi Security and Fidelity Services Group. 

Umlindi will focus on aspects of guarding, cleaning services, car tracking, home and business security, cash management solutions, and fire solutions. Mtawarira will continue his duties and be actively involved in the day-to-day activities at Fidelity Services Group while also taking up his new mantle at Umlindi Security.

“I am excited to start this new adventure and look forward to growing Umlindi into a prominent player in the security and related services industry, and look forward to more involvement with the Fidelity Services Group,” concludes Mtawarira.
