Public Notice Regarding Fraudulent Claims Of Job Opportunities at The Competition Authority Of Kenya

NAIROBI, 26TH FEBRUARY, 2026

The Competition Authority of Kenya (‘the Authority’) is established under section 7 of the Competition Act Cap. 504 (‘the Competition Act’). To execute its mandate, the Authority periodically recruits staff members to fill vacancies when they arise.

It has come to the Authority’s attention that certain individuals, claiming to be acting on our behalf, are purporting to offer employment to Kenyans for non-existent vacancies while demanding cash payments.

Job seekers are therefore cautioned against falling victim to such fraudulent schemes, and to report such cases to the relevant authorities. The Authority is a transparent and equal opportunity employer, and does not require or accept any form of payment in connection with employment opportunities.

All job vacancies within the Authority are advertised in MyGov newspaper, the Authority’s website, and social media pages. The outcome of job interviews is communicated to applicants through the Authority’s official and formal channels.
