Leading Positions with Six-Figure Salaries in Kenya

Leading Positions with Six-Figure Salaries in Kenya

Despite Kenya’s rising unemployment rate, there are positions across many economic sectors that come with enormous benefits.

In Kenya, both the national and local governments continue to be among the biggest employers. Since the majority of the population is thought to work in the informal economy, which is mostly tax-free, the private sector is the largest in the formal economy.

The Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) reports that employees in the private sector make more money than those in the public sector in its Economic Survey 2023.

Graduates and diploma holders in Kenya who are fortunate enough to get employment may earn salaries above Ksh 100,000 but yet remain above Ksh 1 million. These exorbitant wages are paid to top State officials, lawmakers, and managers in blue-chip corporations.

This shows that there are people who laugh all the way to the bank and at the end of every month in spite of the difficulties in the labor market.

Private hospital employees receive higher pay than their public hospital counterparts. Government doctors occasionally work for months without being paid because their position is decentralized and dependent on county taxes or Treasury funding.

A few prestigious universities, such as the University of Nairobi, Kenyatta University, Moi University, JKUAT, Maseno University, Egerton University, and Kisii University, to name a few, provide medical studies.

There are several middle-level colleges that provide medical training, including Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC), which also offers clinical medicine and nursing programs.
