The National Gender and Equality Commission (NGEC) in Kenya has announced six job vacancies across four categories. These categories include legal, supply chain, programmes, and driving positions. The commission is seeking highly motivated and results-oriented candidates to fill these positions as part of its mandate to promote gender equality and eliminate discrimination.
The NGEC is recruiting a Senior Legal Officer, a Senior Supply Chain Management Officer, two Programmes Officers I, and two Drivers III. The commission, established under the National Gender and Equality Commission Act No. 15 of 2011, focuses on protecting the rights of special interest groups, including women, children, youth, persons with disabilities, older members of society, minorities, and marginalized communities.
The NGEC has emphasized that it is an equal-opportunity employer and encourages applications from persons with disabilities, youth, women, and people from minority and marginalized communities. To apply, candidates must submit a detailed curriculum vitae, a copy of their national identity card, copies of academic and professional certificates, and the names and contact details of three referees.
All applications must be submitted in hard copy only. The NGEC has cautioned applicants against falling victim to recruitment fraud, stating that it does not ask for money or require applicants to undergo medical examinations during the recruitment process. Only shortlisted candidates will be notified and required to present original academic and professional certificates and other testimonials during interviews.
Successful candidates will be required to provide clearance certificates from the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA), the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC), the Higher Education Loans Board (HELB), and the Credit Reference Bureau (CRB). The commission warned that providing false information or documents in an application is a criminal offense, and canvassing in any form will lead to automatic disqualification.
The NGEC's job vacancies are part of its efforts to promote gender equality and eliminate discrimination in Kenya. The commission's work is crucial in protecting the rights of special interest groups and promoting inclusivity in the country. The deadline for applications and other requirements can be obtained from the NGEC's official website or through their official communication channels.
The NGEC's announcement of these job vacancies provides an opportunity for qualified Kenyans to join the commission and contribute to its mission. The commission's commitment to equal opportunity and inclusivity is reflected in its encouragement of applications from diverse groups.
