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 7 adverts, stated pay runs from KSh 45,000 to KSh 150,000 a month. The middle advert sits at about KSh 90,000.

All 7 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.

One advert adds commission on top of the stated figure, so the table shows only the guaranteed part for those roles.

What moves the number

Manager pay depends on the size of the team and the revenue you answer for. Ask how many people report to you, what the sales target is and how the bonus is calculated before comparing offers.

Some of these adverts add commission or incentives to the basic pay. Treat the basic figure as the guaranteed part and the rest as conditional on targets.

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.
