AB  - The study investigated the motivation and job performance of career administrators in universities
in South East, Nigeria. The survey research design was employed for the study. The study was carried out in
South East, Nigeria. A sample of 498 career administrators in universities in South-East Nigeria was used for
the study. The instrument used for data collection was the university career administrator’s motivation
questionnaire and interview schedule. Results revealed that career administrators were motivated by the job
itself, interpersonal relations and administration and supervision but were not motivated by salary and general
working condition. Therefore, it was recommended that the government should ensure regular/prompt payment
of salaries and also ensure that the general working conditions are favourable to adequately motivate career
administrators to work. In-services and professional training programmes should be provided for career
administrators to keep them abreast with the latest changes in their job.
