  • Support interpretation during meetings, interviews, workshops, and research sessions.
  • Conduct and support user interviews, focus groups, field visits, and observations.
  • Assist with participant recruitment, scheduling, and fieldwork coordination.
  • Document user feedback, organize research notes, and summarize key findings.
  • Collaborate with Chinese-speaking product teams and local research stakeholders.

Requirements

  • Strong written and spoken proficiency in both Chinese and English.
  • Excellent communication, listening, observation, and documentation skills.
  • Good organizational skills and attention to detail.
  • Proficiency in basic office tools, including Word, Google Docs, and spreadsheets.
  • Willingness to conduct field research in Lagos and other parts of Nigeria when required.
  • Recent graduates, early-career professionals, final-year students graduating within one year, and candidates seeking internships are welcome to apply.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience in translation, interpretation, user research, or market research.
  • Exposure to fintech, digital payments, banking, or technology products.
  • Experience working with cross-cultural or Chinese-English teams.

Questions about applying

They see your structured profile as it stands at the moment you apply, plus your CV if you have one attached. That snapshot is frozen - if you edit your profile next week, this application still shows what you sent today. Your salary expectation is never sent unless you choose to include it.
Yes. The match figure is for you, not for them - Opay Nigeria does not see it. The apply button works the same regardless of your match percentage.
Because boards rewrite titles when they republish. All copies of this vacancy are the same job at the same employer with the same closing date. We show the employer's own wording and list the rest above so you know you have already seen it.
It appears in your application tracker straight away. Because this application is handled here rather than on an external site, you will see the status change as Opay Nigeria moves it - viewed, shortlisted, interviewing or declined. Roles that redirect to an employer's own site cannot be tracked that way, and we say so on those listings.
This employer has not yet been checked against the corporate register. Regardless of any of that, no employer on this platform may ask you for money at any stage. If this one does, report it and tell us what they asked for.
