Job Description
This is a unique and highly esteemed opportunity for an experienced and exceptionally discreet Personal Driver to join a private household based in the prestigious Victoria Island, Lagos.

As an indispensable Personal Driver, you will be an integral part of the employer’s daily life, responsible for expertly navigating Lagos’s vibrant and dynamic streets with utmost confidence, adhering rigorously to all traffic regulations and safety protocols.

Absolute discretion, impeccable punctuality, and a strong, unwavering sense of responsibility are paramount in this crucial role. The ideal candidate will possess an impeccable driving record, advanced, intuitive knowledge of Lagos road networks and alternative routes, and a proactive approach to anticipating the employer’s needs well in advance.
This role demands significant flexibility and a professional willingness to adapt to varying schedules, which may sometimes include evenings, weekends, and occasional travel outside of Lagos, based entirely on the employer’s requirements. You will be entrusted to handle sensitive information with complete confidentiality and will consistently represent the employer with the highest level of professionalism, courtesy, and poise at all times. We are specifically looking for an individual who takes immense pride in their work, is meticulous in their approach to vehicle care and personal presentation, and values a stable employment opportunity complemented by comprehensive benefits designed to support a comfortable and secure lifestyle.
