Figures are copied as stated in each advert and sorted from lowest to highest. Ranges show the advertised band; rows marked plus commission or plus incentive show only the guaranteed part. None of the figures is net take-home pay.
What the adverts show
Across the 20 adverts, stated pay runs from KSh 15,000 to KSh 80,000 a month. The middle advert sits at about KSh 32,500.
All 20 adverts were posted by recruitment agencies. Agency adverts often hold back the employer's name, so the agency is shown instead and you apply through it.
9 of the adverts add commission on top of the stated figure, so the table shows only the guaranteed part for those roles.
What moves the number
Many sales adverts quote a basic salary and add commission on what you sell. Two offers with the same basic pay can end up far apart once targets and commission rates are known, so ask for both in writing.
What you sell and to whom matters. Selling to businesses, such as glass and aluminium, signage or training, advertises KSh 35,000 to 70,000 here, while field sales of chicken or vehicle parts start at KSh 15,000 to 20,000.
Before you accept an offer
Advertised pay is usually gross monthly pay. Your take-home pay is lower after PAYE, NSSF, SHIF and the housing levy; use the net salary calculator linked below to estimate it before you compare offers.
Ask for a written offer that states the basic salary, any allowances, how commission or bonuses are calculated, the contract length and the probation period. A figure in an advert is a starting point, not a promise.
