About Salient Consulting
Founded by HR professionals who understand Nigerian business
Salient Consulting was founded to address a critical gap in the Nigerian business landscape: growing SMEs that have outgrown informal management practices but can't yet afford Big 4 consulting firms or full-time senior HR talent.
We've seen too many successful Nigerian businesses—profitable companies with 50, 100, 200 employees—operating without basic employment contracts, clear policies, or compliant HR systems. Not because the owners don't care, but because they don't know where to start, or they've been burned by consultants who deliver expensive reports that sit on shelves.
We're different. We're hands-on practitioners who understand the unique challenges of operating in Nigeria's business environment—from navigating labor regulations to managing diverse workforces to building professional structures in traditionally informal sectors.
Our Approach
We create systems you'll actually use, at pricing that makes sense for growing Nigerian SMEs. No theoretical frameworks or academic jargon—just practical, implementable solutions that professionalize your operations and protect your business.
Our Commitment
We're committed to helping Nigerian businesses build sustainable, professional HR infrastructure. We measure our success by your operational improvements, compliance confidence, and ability to scale without HR chaos.
Why Salient Consulting Is Different
Nigerian Context First
We understand the regulatory environment, cultural dynamics, and practical realities of managing people in Nigeria. Our solutions account for local labor laws, enforcement patterns, and business norms.
Implementation-Focused
We don't just diagnose problems and hand you a report. We build the actual systems, templates, and frameworks you need, then help you implement them. You get usable tools, not recommendations.
SME Pricing
Our pricing is designed for growing Nigerian SMEs, not multinational corporations. You get senior-level expertise at rates that make economic sense for businesses in your revenue range.
Sector Specialization
We specialize in manufacturing, real estate, distribution, and traditional sectors—industries often overlooked by tech-focused consultants but critical to Nigeria's economy.
Transparent Engagement
We publish our pricing, clearly define deliverables, and give you multiple engagement options. No hidden fees, no scope creep, no surprise invoices.
