Careers at SimpleFix
Work that makes Nigeria make sense.
We're a small Lagos-based team turning Nigeria's policies, budgets and public decisions into work people can actually use. If you want to build something serious — with your name on it — this is where to start.
01
Your name on the work.
Briefs, op-eds, campaigns and pages that go out in public, credited. A portfolio, not a line on a CV.
02
A written growth plan.
Every quarter you get one development objective, the resources to meet it, and a record of what SimpleFix owes you in return.
03
Real ownership.
Small team, wide remit. You will run your area rather than wait for instructions on it.
Where we need people
Four kinds of work.
Everything SimpleFix publishes passes through these four areas. Whatever is advertised at any given time, these are the people we are always glad to hear from.
Research & policy
Finding the primary source, reading it properly, and writing briefs that hold up to scrutiny.
Words & storytelling
Op-eds, explainers, scripts and social copy that turn research into something people finish reading.
Visual & video
Design, motion, reels and documentary work that carry our publications beyond the PDF.
Programmes & digital
Webinars, partnerships, the website and the systems that keep all of the above running on time.
The September 2026 round
That round is closed. Thank you.
All three roles closed on 30 September 2026, and we are reading every application now. If you applied, you don't need to do anything else: shortlisted candidates will hear from us directly.

Research
Remote · Nigeria-based
Policy Writer / Contributor
Research and write the briefs and op-eds we publish — going to the primary source, citing it properly, and writing about it in English a non-specialist can follow.
