Sefishi Mokgomo is the Head of Programme Management at the Infrastructure Fund (IF), a ring-fenced Division within the Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA). Established in 2018 following a Presidential announcement, the IF is mandated to develop blended finance solutions that attract private sector investment into South Africa’s infrastructure projects. By mobilising private capital, the IF aims to reduce the financial burden on the government while accelerating infrastructure development.

She played a key role in standardising processes to enhance programme efficiency and ensure compliance.
Prior to her tenure at DBSA, Sefishi spent 15 years at Eskom, advancing from Technician to Standards Implementation Manager and later Portfolio Manager in the Distribution Asset Creation department. In this role, she managed multiple infrastructure programmes, contract management, and project services units.
