Government Hiring.

The Privatisation Authority and Geothermal Development Company have announced fresh recruitment drives targeting senior and technical positions as part of efforts to strengthen operations in key sectors.

The Privatisation Authority said it is seeking to recruit qualified and self-motivated individuals for four positions, including Deputy Director for Information and Communication Technology, Assistant Director for Corporate Communications, Assistant Director for Internal Audit and Senior Administration Officer.

The Authority, a State Corporation established under Section 8 of the Privatisation Act No. 18 of 2025, said the successful candidates will support the implementation of the country’s privatisation programme and related proposals.

Interested applicants have been directed to access detailed job specifications and application requirements through the Authority’s official website, Privatisation Authority.

Applications are to be submitted to the Managing Director of the Privatisation Authority at the Social Security House Annex in Nairobi by 5pm on June 15, 2026.

The Authority said it is an equal opportunity employer and encouraged women, youth and persons living with disabilities to apply, warning that canvassing will lead to disqualification.

Meanwhile, the Geothermal Development Company has announced a vacancy for the position of Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer.

The company said the recruitment is aimed at attracting top talent to help implement its mandate in the energy generation subsector.

GDC was formed following the enactment of the Energy Act No. 12 of 2006 after reforms that unbundled Kenya’s energy sector into generation, transmission, distribution, regulation and policy functions.

Applicants for the CEO position have been asked to submit their applications through the company’s online recruitment portal available on the official Geothermal Development Company website and GDC jobs portal by 5pm on June 25, 2026.

The company said shortlisted candidates will be required to present clearance certificates from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations, the Higher Education Loans Board, the Kenya Revenue Authority, the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission and an approved Credit Reference Bureau in line with Chapter Six of the Constitution.

GDC also stated that it does not charge any fee for processing job applications and encouraged women, youth, marginalized groups and persons with disabilities to apply.
