• Helping keep customer and order information properly organised
• Assisting with basic stock counts and inventory updates
• Handling business errands, including visits to banks, POS/service providers, logistics companies and other vendors when required

• Helping the business owner organise appointments, reminders and important tasks
• Providing administrative support across the hair business and other business activities of the owner
• Identifying small operational issues and helping get them resolved
• Carrying out other reasonable business and administrative tasks as required
  

You may be a good fit if you:

• Have a university degree, HND, OND or similar qualification

• Can use Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel at a basic level
• Are comfortable learning new apps and digital tools
• Understand the basics of Instagram and social media
• Communicate clearly and professionally
• Are organised and pay attention to details
• Can follow instructions without needing constant supervision
• Take initiative when you see something that needs to be done
• Are trustworthy and responsible
• Are comfortable moving around Abuja for business errands when necessary
• Live within Garki or another part of Abuja from which you can reliably commute to Garki
• Are willing to learn and grow with a small but growing business

Experience in hair, beauty or e-commerce is an advantage but is NOT required.

Training will be provided for the business's specific processes and tools.

We are looking for someone who doesn't always need to be told the next thing to do.

If an order needs to be updated, you update it. If a delivery needs following up, you follow up. If products need uploading, you get them uploaded. If something isn't working, you find out what needs to be done and communicate it.

This role is ideal for a young professional who wants practical experience working closely with an entrepreneur and learning how a growing business operates.
