Enjoys working alone most of the time, and with people some of the time. The work you'll be doing is typically alone and with minimal supervision. We are not in the business of micro-managing people.

Lives in Lagos. Lagos mainland candidates have an added advantage.
Excellent command of the English Language both orally and in writing. This is very key to getting this job.

Doesn't take things personally, have feelings hurt easily or get offended at all. Stays objective and likes to always use logic to make decisions.
