How to read these numbers

Salary scale rows are the monthly basic pay ranges printed in current public job adverts. New staff normally start at the bottom of the scale and move up by annual increments. House, commuter and other allowances are paid on top and are not included here.
All figures are gross, before PAYE, SHIF, NSSF and the housing levy. To see take-home pay for any figure, use the net salary calculator.

None of the current JobInKenya listings for this role state a salary, so this page uses official figures only. We add advertised pay when employers publish it.
