Our focus is on creating a positive work environment that attracts highly talented individuals. LBS has a serene, aesthetic and secure environment to enable employees to put in their best at work. We pride ourselves on the provision and maintenance of a world-class work environment that promotes innovation and creativity. The LBS environment is also eco-friendly. We offer a rewarding, stimulating, and creative work environment. We have a strong culture of respect for all staff and we provide them with rich training opportunities to improve themselves. We are also mindful of their commitments and responsibilities outside the School.

LBS is strongly committed to diversity within its community, especially as it supports our achieving our vision, mission and goals. That is why we offer equal employment opportunities to all employees regardless of their gender, religion, tribe, race, nationality and status. Everyone is entitled to the same career opportunities; the only determinant is performance.

To meet and exceed our customer’s expectations, and hence, ensure we become a world-class institution as stated in our mission, we pay adequate attention to the welfare of our people, as this will determine the quality of service they render to clients.

• Employees are given remuneration packages competitive within the industry in which we operate.
• Discounts on academic and executive programmes are extended to spouses and children of employees;
• We have the PAU Cooperative Multipurpose Society which is open to all staff of the university community. The Cooperative is managed by members of our team and is aimed at promoting and exploring ways to ensure the general economic interest of its members.
• LBS offers complete medical coverage to its employees and their families through its registered Health Maintenance Organisations (HMOs).
• To further cater to the health of its employees, LBS sets aside a whole day annually for its Health & Wellness Programme, organised to promote its employees’ wellbeing.
• The School has a sick bay with a certified nurse to provide first-aid treatment to ailing employees.
• We have a standard Cafeteria where a variety of meals are served at a subsidised rate. In addition to this, we have a gazebo where staff socialise and celebrate milestones.
• We empathise with and provide financial/moral support to our employees during periods of grief; while we rejoice with staff who get married, expand their families or attain recognisable heights.
• Employees are entitled to different kinds of loans to subsidise their financial needs when necessary. These loans are at very reasonable interest rates and are repayable over a period.
• LBS provides gratuity benefits for staff who have spent over five years in the School. This is in addition to the statutory Pension Fund subscribed to.
• Employees who have spent ten years and above are celebrated in the School during the Long Service Awards. Employees who disengage from the School after five years and above are equally appreciated with some token on their exit.

We believe the heights that LBS will achieve would be determined by its people, which is why we do not hesitate to invest in and support the professional development of our people. By the nature of our business, we are a knowledge generation and executive education institution, which makes it very easy to groom our talents from within.

• We enrol employees in our in-house seminars, management programmes, as well as academic programmes, depending on the competencies required for their job.
• We encourage attendance at conferences outside the School and Nigeria to give them international exposure to best practices as it relates to their roles.
• We support the career plans of our employees by partly sponsoring their educational programmes in recognised Nigerian universities through our Staff Education Support programme.
• We run a mentoring programme which provides employees with the support and counselling required to build their careers both within and after leaving LBS.
• Employees are given objective assessments during appraisals which are meant to be developmental rather than punitive. As much as possible, we try to drive an objective appraisal system to ensure a balance in staff assessment. One of these is the Appraisal Review Committee and bottom–top assessment where applicable.
• We groom future leaders of the school by engaging them in career development opportunities such as project committees, job rotation and job enlargement programmes.
• We also have a world-class library which our employees can use for their personal development.

As an institution founded on Christian principles, we acknowledge and respect the other facets of our employees’ lives and have, therefore, created policies and structures that will enhance their ability to balance the pressures of life.

• We strictly adhere to our resumption and closing hours – 8.30a.m and 5.00p.m respectively for full-time staff and encourage staff to work efficiently within the specified work times.
• We have on-site childcare in a well-equipped crèche by professional caregivers to take care of our employees’ babies while they are at work.
• We respect the spiritual lives of our employees and have, therefore, provided an in-house praying ground for Muslims, and a chapel for Christians. For the Catholics among us, mass is held twice a week on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 7.45a.m before work resumes.
• Our women are entitled to 14 weeks of maternity leave, and the men are entitled to a paternity leave of five working days. Upon resumption from maternity leave, the nursing mothers are allowed to resume an hour later and close early for three months.
• The School shuts down mid-December every year so staff can spend the Yuletide with family and friends, except for essential services personnel. This is in addition to paid leave time off during the year.

We do our best to remunerate our faculty and staff according to the value they provide. We also provide benefits such as life cover, a generous pension, and gratuity schemes.

We believe in mutual commitment as we focus on maintaining high professional standards in the services rendered to participants in our programmes and Nigerian society. 

When you join LBS, you become part of a community with a strong identity. This is a community of like-minded individuals dedicated to the advancement of ethical business practices in Africa.
