  • Evidence of managing departmental targets, improving revenue or collections, leading client service and retaining business.
  • Strong leadership, decision-making, KPI reporting, client management and execution skills.
  • Ability to supervise the whole business when the CEO is away while knowing when to escalate material decisions.

Remuneration

  • Salary: N350,000 gross monthly + performance-based incentives up to N100,000 monthly
  • Total potential monthly earnings: N450,000, subject to verified performance.
