Abstract
The nexus between career development and employee motivation cannot be over emphasized as the era of using
financial means to get the attention of the employees has long expired. The emerging trend is for the
organisation to create an enabling platform for the employees to grow in their career. This alone can stimulate
the staff to perform better and thus facilitate the effective efficient achievement of pre-set organizational goals.
It is this nexus that this paper explored among the employees of Pension Fund Administrators (PFAs) in Nigeria.
This relationship was proved using a survey design with 4983 staff of the 22 pension Administrators in Nigeria
as at December 2020. From the population, a sample of 370 respondents were selected using Taro Yemane
sample size formula. With a structured questionnaire, primary data were collected and analysed with a multiple
regression analysis. The study found that that the coefficient values for all the career development metrics
positively and significantly influence employee motivation of PFAs in Nigeria. It thus concluded that career
development metrics have significant effect on employee motivation of PFAs in Nigeria. The paper therefore
recommended that career advancement systems which are linked with performance levels since rewards in
terms of career growth and promotion opportunities have an effect on employees’ job related attitudes.
