Kenya is one of Africa’s biggest hubs for NGO, UN and development work. Nairobi hosts the United Nations Office at Nairobi (UNON) and the global headquarters of UNEP and UN-Habitat, alongside regional offices of many international NGOs, foundations and research institutes. Beyond the capital, humanitarian and development programmes run in refugee-hosting areas such as Dadaab and Kakuma, in the arid and semi-arid counties of the north, and along the coast.
Opportunities range from programme, MEL, finance and grants roles to consultancies, fellowships and internships in health, climate, livelihoods, education, governance and humanitarian response.
