In a move to strengthen Kenya’s economic planning capacity, the National Treasury, through its State Department for Economic Planning, has announced a large-scale recruitment drive. This initiative aims to fill 244 Senior Economist and Statistician positions (CSG8, Job Group N), opening opportunities for qualified professionals to join the government’s economic engine room.
Applicants must have at least three years of experience at the Economist I or Statistician I level. Essential qualifications include a bachelor’s degree in Economics, Statistics, Finance, or a related field, plus computer skills certification and membership in a relevant professional body. These roles come with competitive monthly salaries ranging from Ksh 52,000 to Ksh 96,130, alongside substantial allowances, including housing, commuting, and annual leave incentives.
The new recruits will be tasked with crafting policy briefs, monitoring national development plans, conducting economic forecasts, managing government programmes, overseeing national data, and providing training support to government and civil society organizations. The roles demand analytical sharpness, strategic thinking, and the ability to communicate complex data clearly.
Candidates must submit their applications using the Public Service Commission’s Employment Form 2 (Revised 2016), available on the PSC website. Applications can be delivered via email, hand delivery at the Treasury Building, or postal mail. The deadline for submissions is 5 p.m. on July 30, 2025.
Shortlisted applicants will be called for interviews and must present original identification and academic certificates. The Treasury warns against falsifying documents or engaging in canvassing, as such actions will lead to immediate disqualification.
This recruitment drive reflects the Treasury’s commitment to bolstering the government’s capacity for economic planning and policy execution. By bringing on board competent economists and statisticians, the government aims to enhance data-driven decision-making and ensure that Kenya’s economic strategies are robust and impactful.
