FAQs

Working here, answered.

Do you hire remotely?+

Yes. The core is Lagos, and most roles are open to practitioners across Africa and the diaspora.

Can I work fractionally?+

Associate Practitioner and Faculty roles are fractional by design. You keep your own practice.

What do you look for?+

Senior judgment, a documented track record, and a bias to build. Titles matter less than what you have shipped.

How do I apply?+

Write to careers@designleverinc.com with the role and a short note on what you have led. No cover-letter theatre.
