Zen Jem Ltd – hiring Data Collectors


About zen Jem ltd
Zen Jem Ltd was incorporated in Nigeria in 2025. We state that at the front of this profile rather than leave a client to discover it later, because the more important fact sits immediately behind it: the firm is new; the practice inside it is not.
Zen Jem was formed to give institutional shape to a body of experience its principals had already spent decades accumulating — thirty-five years inside Nigeria’s National Population Commission directing national household surveys, sixteen years of donor-funded finance, grants and compliance management across Northern Nigeria, career banking at branch-management level, and professional human resource practice certified in both Nigeria and the United Kingdom.
