Salary
£27,000 – £33,000
Drive R-Zone's growth through digital channels managing SEO, paid social, content, and email campaigns that turn UK-based Nigerians into loyal customers. We're investing heavily in digital and need someone to own it.
We're not a corporate. We're a tight, driven team of logistics professionals, customer experience specialists, and tech-minded operators who care about doing things properly.
R-Zone was built to serve the UK–Nigerian community. Many of our team are part of that community, which means the work is personal. When a shipment arrives, a family gets their Christmas gifts, or a business gets its stock — and we all feel that.
We believe in giving people real responsibility early. If you're good at your job and you want to grow, R-Zone is the kind of place where your career can accelerate in ways it never would at a larger company.
We give people responsibility and trust them to run with it. No micromanagement. No permission-seeking. If something needs doing, you do it.
We win as a team. Egos at the door. Whether it's a bank holiday sea freight crisis or a last-minute customer escalation — we've all got each other's backs.
The UK–Nigeria logistics space is changing fast. We need people who are curious, who read, who ask questions, and who bring new ideas to the table every week.
Every cargo shipment we handle matters to a real family or a real business. We never lose sight of that. Service isn't a department — it's who we are.
