Biography

Vijay Jha brings a sharp operational mindset and a proven track record of building commercial platforms across infrastructure advisory, financial services, energy transition, and cross-border development — spanning Africa, India, and international markets.

With deep experience in the aviation and financial services sectors, Vijay has navigated complex commercial and regulatory environments across multiple jurisdictions. His cross-border networks across Africa, the UAE, and India position R&J Steytler as a credible bridge between Namibian sovereign priorities and international capital and expertise.

As COO of R&J Steytler, Vijay leads the firm's energy transition and BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) initiatives in Namibia — a strategically significant portfolio as Namibia positions itself as a green energy hub. He drives operational delivery across the firm's project development and institutional partnership mandates, ensuring strategic intent translates into tangible outcomes.

Vijay's engagement model is built on relationships — maintaining active connections with investors, developers, and government counterparts across the African continent and beyond.
