Who We Are
Zed Hires is Zambia’s leading job platform, headquartered in Lusaka, dedicated to revolutionizing the way employers and job seekers connect in a secure, transparent, and professional environment. Born from the founders’ personal experience as victims of a fake job scam, Zed Hires was established to combat fraudulent job schemes and empower Zambians with legitimate career opportunities. Our tagline, “Zambia’s Gateway to Professional Growth,” reflects our commitment to not only connecting people with jobs but also fostering long-term professional development through innovative tools, educational content, and community-focused initiatives.
Our Mission: Protecting and Empowering
At Zed Hires, we prioritize protecting both employers and job seekers from job scams prevalent in today’s digital landscape. We educate our users to verify the legitimacy of opportunities by researching employers’ online presence (e.g., professional websites, verified social media profiles, and credible reviews) and, where feasible, their physical presence (e.g., a registered office or operational base in Zambia). For remote work, which is a cornerstone of our platform, we urge extra caution—ensuring clear communication, legitimate contracts, and verified employer identities to avoid fraudulent schemes. Our goal is to create a trusted ecosystem where job seekers and employers can engage with confidence, free from the risks of scams.
What We Do: Beyond Job Matching
Zed Hires is more than a job board; it’s a comprehensive platform designed to empower Zambians with the tools, knowledge, and opportunities to thrive in a dynamic job market. Operating primarily with remote clients, we connect top-tier talent with verified employers across Zambia and internationally. Our offerings include:
- Job Matching with Integrity: We vet employers to ensure all job listings are legitimate, aligning opportunities with candidates’ skills and career aspirations. Our platform supports both local and remote jobs, catering to Zambia’s growing digital workforce.
- Professional Growth through Content: We provide free, high-quality content, including articles on career development, resume writing, interview techniques, and industry trends, to help users stay competitive in Zambia’s job market.
- Innovative Tools for All: Zed Hires develops and offers free software applications to support professional success:
- CV Tools: Our user-friendly CV-building tools allow job seekers to create professional, tailored resumes optimized for Zambian and global employers.
- AI-Powered Tools: Leverage our free AI tools for job matching, skill assessments, personalized career advice, and mock interview preparation, designed to give users a competitive edge.
- Carbon Credit Opportunities: We empower farmers and professionals to participate in sustainable initiatives, such as earning carbon credits through eco-friendly practices, fostering both economic and environmental growth.
- Training and Skill Development: We offer free workshops and webinars on topics like digital literacy, remote work best practices, and emerging industries (e.g., tech, agriculture, and renewable energy), tailored to Zambia’s workforce needs.
- Community Engagement: Zed Hires hosts career fairs, networking events, and online forums to connect job seekers, employers, and industry experts, building a vibrant professional community in Zambia.
Why Zed Hires Stands Out
Zed Hires is uniquely positioned to serve Zambia’s job market with a deep understanding of local challenges and opportunities. Our platform extends far beyond connecting employers and employees—it’s a hub for professional transformation. Key differentiators include:
- Commitment to Safety: Inspired by our founders’ experience with job scams, we prioritize transparency and verification, ensuring every job listing meets strict authenticity standards.
- Focus on Remote Work: As remote work grows in Zambia, Zed Hires specializes in connecting clients and talent for flexible, location-independent opportunities, with safeguards to protect against fraud.
- Free Tools and Resources: From AI-driven career tools to CV builders and carbon credit programs, all our resources are free, making professional growth accessible to all Zambians.
- Showcasing In-House Innovation: Zed Hires develops proprietary software applications tailored to the needs of job seekers and employers. Our tools, from resume generators to job-matching algorithms, are designed to simplify and enhance the job search process.
- Holistic Support for Diverse Audiences: Whether you’re a farmer exploring carbon credit opportunities, a fresh graduate crafting a CV, or a professional seeking remote work, Zed Hires provides tailored solutions to help you succeed.
- Local Impact, Global Reach: While rooted in Zambia, we connect users to international opportunities, helping Zambian talent compete on a global stage.
Our Vision for Zambia
Zed Hires envisions a Zambia where every job seeker has access to legitimate, fulfilling career opportunities and every employer can find trusted talent. We aim to reduce unemployment, combat job scams, and drive economic growth by empowering individuals with the skills, tools, and confidence to succeed. By 2030, we aspire to be the go-to platform for professional development in Zambia, supporting thousands of job seekers, farmers, and businesses through innovative solutions.
Partnerships and Community Impact
Zed Hires collaborates with local and international organizations to amplify our impact:
- Local Universities and Colleges: We partner with institutions to provide career guidance, internships, and job placement programs for graduates.
- Agricultural Cooperatives: Our carbon credit initiatives support Zambian farmers, promoting sustainable agriculture and additional income streams.
- Tech Innovators: We work with tech startups to integrate cutting-edge AI and software tools, ensuring our platform remains at the forefront of innovation.
