Employees
AVAILABLE IN NIGERIA, BY REQUESTEmploy people in Nigeria without setting up a local entity.
When the role needs to be an employment relationship, Otority can employ the person on your behalf and manage the local administration around it.
The way you engage someone should match the relationship you need.
You may need someone to join your team as an employee in Nigeria, while your business has no local entity there. Creating an entity for one hire or a small team can add a separate operational commitment.
Treating an employment role as a contractor engagement does not resolve the underlying classification question. Otority's Employer of Record service gives you a route to establish the local employment relationship and manage the administration behind it.
A genuine employee role
For a role that should be structured as employment rather than an independent contract.
A person in Nigeria
The service is currently available for employment in Nigeria, subject to review.
No local entity of your own
Otority serves as the local legal employer on your behalf for the agreed arrangement.
What Otority handles.
We manage the local employment and payroll administration behind the relationship. Your team continues to lead the person's work.
Employment documentation
The local employment documents and records required for the agreed arrangement.
Payroll and payments
Payroll administration, required deductions and employee payments.
Statutory administration
Applicable statutory obligations connected to the employment relationship.
Employee records

The responsibilities stay clear.
Otority handles the agreed local employment administration. Your business remains responsible for the role itself, the employee's day-to-day direction, priorities, work and performance.
We review each arrangement before setup so the parties understand the structure and what is required.
This service is not self-serve.
