What roles do you recruit for in Nairobi?

We focus on junior to mid-level roles across finance, technology, sales, operations, customer service, hospitality and professional services. For senior and specialist appointments we also offer a dedicated executive search service.

How does your recruitment fee work?

Recruitment is charged as a percentage of the successful candidate annual salary, payable once they start. There is no upfront cost to begin a search, and each placement comes with a replacement guarantee period, so the fee is tied to a result, not effort.

How long does it take to fill a role?

For most junior to mid-level roles in Nairobi we present a shortlist within one to two weeks and fill the position within three to four, depending on how specialised it is. We agree a realistic timeline against the brief before we start.

Do you check candidates before sending them to us?

Yes. Every candidate is screened and interviewed against your requirements, and we complete reference and qualification checks before you make an offer. Criminal record and integrity checks are available on request.

What if a new hire does not work out?

Each placement carries a replacement guarantee. If the candidate leaves or is not right within the agreed period, we recruit a replacement at no additional fee.

Can you also run payroll for the people we hire?

Yes. Many clients have us recruit, then run payroll and HR for the new staff, so hiring, pay and compliance sit with one team from day one.

A shortlist of the right people, not a pile of CVs

Nairobi has the deepest talent pool in the region and, because of that, the noisiest one. A single advert can pull hundreds of applications. Our job is to do the sifting, screening and reference work so you interview a short list of candidates who actually fit the role, the salary and the culture.

We recruit across finance, technology, sales, operations, hospitality and professional services for businesses in the CBD, Westlands, Upper Hill and the Industrial Area. Because we also run payroll and HR for many clients, we understand what the market pays and what it takes to keep good people once they join.
