Helping disadvantaged and marginalised young people upskill and find employment.
Recruitment Redefined
Our expert team help candidates find the right job and support them for as long as they need. We work within Nigeria’s private and public sector companies, finding apprenticeships and jobs for hundreds of young people.
Our work with young people helps them develop confidence, skills and financial security. For our candidates, a job is more than an income. It means a future where they and their family can flourish.
Candidates come to us freely. Because they want to work. We operate from Lagos, Nigeria and are supported by our UK charity partner; Change Nigeria Project.
Mentoring
Want to use your skills to mentor young people and help them build their confidence?
Or are you a young person who would benefit from a career mentor?
Our new Mentoring Programme carefully matches young people with corporate mentors who provide career advice, help with confidence-building and act as professional role models.
Employment is a key factor to poverty alleviation.
16 Thousand
unskilled young people add to the
90
Million
unemployment market every day in Nigeria.
Today with your help we can provide, practical and relevant skills to empower and support our young people.
“I was referred to Apprentice9ja! a month ago. I’ve had more advice and help from them than I’ve had in the past two and a half years looking for work. Apprentice9ja! got me for a job interview last week.”
