Easybuy, a Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL) platform, has announced a plan to hire 10,000 business developers in Nigeria this year, targeting recent graduates, POS operators, and stay-at-home mothers.
Since its Lagos launch in 2019, Easybuy, a subsidiary of Newedge Finance Limited, has utilized a network of thousands of partner stores to provide installment financing for smartphones and home appliances.
The program provides a structured monthly salary framework where performance is rewarded with commissions, which allows representatives to operate remotely via mobile devices.
Stakeholders like Jessica Ugwuoke, CEO of Newedge Finance Limited, lauded the hiring scheme for its dual-purpose vehicle for corporate growth and social empowerment:
“This win-win partnership with Nigerians, on whose support we’ve come this far, reflects our continuous investment in people. Selected applicants… would be empowered with training and the opportunity to become financially independent”
The scheme serves as commercial interest by building a huge boots-on-the-ground pipeline to capture the underserved consumer credit market.
Easybuy plans to provide participants with digital tools and sales training to ensure high-performance standards.
