HR & Admin Assistant (Entry-Level Opportunity) – Apply Before 23 February 2026

Startups in Nigeria’s tech education space are expanding quickly, and that growth creates pressure behind the scenes. As more young people sign up for training programs, someone has to keep recruitment, documentation, and daily coordination steady. That’s where roles like this matter.

Talent Code Africa, based in Yaba, is currently hiring an NYSC corps member to support HR and administrative operations. In practical terms, this is the kind of role that keeps the internal structure from slipping as the company grows.

⏰ Deadline Alert: Applications close in 7 days. Submit now to avoid missing out.

This role is not a get-paid-to-click, referral, or automation setup — it involves real daily interaction and responsibility.

If you’ve worked inside a small but ambitious organization before, you’ll recognize the rhythm. There’s structure, but processes are still evolving. You’ll likely be supporting recruitment one moment and organizing physical files the next.

Many people assume HR roles are only about interviews. In reality, most of the work is documentation, tracking, follow-through, and ensuring nothing slips through the cracks.

You’ll do well here if you are naturally organized and don’t need constant supervision to complete routine tasks.

• Maintain and update physical and digital staff records
• Assist with HR letters, payroll documentation, and leave tracking
• Manage office filing systems, correspondence, and supplies
• Ensure the office remains clean, organized, and functional
• Support attendance tracking, basic reporting, and meeting coordination

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s Degree or HND in HR, Business Administration, Management, or related field
• Currently serving NYSC as a corps member
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office and Google Workspace
• Strong attention to detail and willingness to learn
• Comfortable working in a structured but evolving environment
