Understanding the Investment: Cost Considerations in Kenya

When considering IT staffing solutions in Kenya, it's essential to factor in various cost components. Beyond base salaries, which are competitive compared to US rates, consider recruitment fees, onboarding costs, and potential relocation expenses if applicable. While specific figures vary widely based on skill sets and experience, a mid-level software developer might command a salary ranging from KES 150,000 to KES 300,000 per month. Professional recruitment agencies often charge a percentage of the annual salary, typically between 15-25%. Understanding these figures, alongside local tax obligations and employment laws, is vital for accurate budgeting.
