Leading recruitment and HR solutions provider, Jobberman has launched a gender responsiveness campaign focused on elevating entrepreneurship and vocational training for young women in Kaduna, Kano, Adamawa, Ondo, Katsina, Bauchi, Delta, Ogun, Benue, Edo, Lagos, and Oyo states.
The campaign, tagged ‘She’s More’ and launched at a press conference in Lagos, is a female-focused social awareness initiative created to elevate vocational skill training among women and empower them in fields such as soap making, perfume production, beads crafts, Insecticide production and more.
In a statement, Jobberman said the goal of the campaign is to train over 558,000 young women in business management, vocational skills, soft skills, and financial literacy and to support about 204,000 of them to start their businesses and help them become employers of labour.
Head of HR Jobberman Nigeria and Lead Advisor, She’s More Initiative, Samantha Ifezulike, said the campaign is a strategic period to launch this initiative and a testament to its commitment to not only invest in women but to accelerate the economic independence and advancement of women in Nigeria.

She said the focus of vocational training is to fill the business structure and skills knowledge gap in that sector of the economy.
“The ‘She’s More’ initiative is designed to deliver targeted intervention programs based on insights gathered on the specific needs of each of our learning states,” she said further.
The She’s More Initiative, being implemented by Jobberman Nigeria is in continuation of its ongoing partnership with the Mastercard Foundation’s Young Nigeria Works.
