Office assistants keep Lagos teams moving — filing, coordination, vendor follow-ups, meeting prep and the small operations that otherwise fall on founders and managers.
We recruit office assistants who can work reliably in fast environments, use common productivity tools, and keep confidentiality around client and company information.
