Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria Volition Cap Full time ₦360,000 - ₦720,000 per year

Your Mission Should You Choose to Accept it

You don't just manage portfolios; you manage possibilities and profit.

As Chief Investment Officer, you will lead the firm's investment vision; shaping strategies that turn market insight into performance. You'll oversee portfolio construction, risk management, and capital allocation, ensuring every investment decision aligns with the firm's objectives and clients' long-term returns.

You see markets as living systems, not static charts. You translate volatility into opportunity, anticipate shifts before they happen, and drive disciplined execution across strategies and asset classes.

This role demands intellect, integrity, and foresight. You'll work closely with the CEO and executive team to define the firm's investment philosophy, manage risk frameworks, and deliver sustainable growth for clients and stakeholders alike.

If you live for markets, lead with conviction, and believe that excellence is a strategy; not a slogan; then your mission as Chief Investment Officer begins here.
