Product Operations Manager at Noani Home & Design

Noani interior design was born out of the need to provide quality home decor and furnishings at affordable prices. Having looked through most of the decor services available locally, we thought it best that we give something to desire for the new generation Nigerian who wants their space to reflect a less cluttered lifestyle.

Founded in the month of March 2017, we have managed to carve a niche for ourselves in the design industry, constantly evolving and growing to give our clients a forever cozy space. We kicked off selling only prints for the first 6 months of our opening and after which our founder decided to harness her artistic abilities and her insights for luxurious paintings to pick a dedicated team of painters who work hand-in-hand with us to achieve each customer’s dream painting need at an affordable rate.

We are recruiting to fill the position below:
