Hello All,
Hope your well
My cousin is considering two jobs in Lagos. Onein banking industry and the other in the teleco industry. We don't know what kind of salary to ask for. She has 12 yrs UK working experience in commercial finance background and 3yrs MEA experience. She has degree with professional qualification ACCA/CIMA.

What salary could she expect? Is 20m Naira basic annum salary plus accommodation, 3 flights home, ok?

What allowance should be asked for etc

Thanks for all help

Hi Nims,

As long as it is net salary, i think its ok. She should also get free accomodation, car with driver and children education allowance along with this.

Regards,

Ajay
