Remote operations jobs
Operations covers the work that keeps a company running: business operations, strategy, supply chain and logistics, vendor management and internal tooling. Remote-first companies hire for it across regions because it is process work rather than place work.
Every role below is live and labeled for who can apply.
Right now there are 44 live roles from 31 companies, 26 of them labeled Worldwide or Open from Nigeria.

How to actually get hired from Nigeria
Most remote applications go into a pile nobody reads. Before you apply, you can check two things a listing rarely tells you: whether you can really do this job from Nigeria, and who at the company to reach directly.

Is the role still open, and open from Nigeria? How you would be engaged and paid, the working hours in Lagos time, and whether the company looks legitimate. Anything we cannot verify is marked “not found”, never guessed.
Direct outreach pack · ₦6,000
Everything in the report, plus who to contact at the company and a specific message written from your CV for that job, so you reach a hiring contact instead of applying into a pile. If we cannot find a contact, we say so.
Reports are bought per role, from that role’s own page. The Nigeria label and the Lagos hours on every card stay free.

What operations roles screen for
Junior operations and admin-style roles are hired for how you handle process: following steps exactly, spotting what is off and keeping people updated.
Spreadsheets you can trust
Lookups, filters, pivot tables and clean formatting are the everyday tools. A short sheet test is common.
Following written processes
Expect a task that checks whether you follow instructions to the letter, then flag anything unclear instead of guessing.
Tools like Notion, Airtable or Slack
You do not need to know all of them, but naming one you have used for tracking work helps.
Time zone and hours
Operations teams often need someone online when the main team is not, or overlapping with it. Check the Lagos-time hours.
Clear status updates
A two-line daily update that says what is done, what is blocked and what is next is a skill employers notice.
Operations managers rarely read every application. The outreach pack finds who to contact for the role and writes a message from your CV tied to that job. See how the outreach pack works
Questions, answered.
What does a remote operations role involve?
Usually process design, reporting, vendor and tool management, and coordinating across teams. Strong spreadsheet skills and clear written communication matter more than a specific background.
