Motorcycle Riders – 600 positions

— Dr. Alfred N. Mutua (@DrAlfredMutua) December 5, 2024

The selected riders will earn a salary of 2,925 dirhams (approximately Ksh. 104,000) for working 26 days a month, tax-free.

Candidates will need to have a valid Kenyan passport or proof of an eCitizen application, a Certificate of Good Conduct, and a valid rider’s license. While prior experience is not mandatory, it will be considered an advantage.

“For every delivery trip, riders will be earning 7.5 dirhams (Ksh. 263), having a daily minimum average of 15 trips. However, riders with initiative can make upwards of 30 deliveries per day, increasing their earnings,” the notice indicated.

The company will provide free accommodation, a work motorcycle with maintenance, medical care, and a work visa. However, pre-arrival costs, including a payment to the HR provider in Dubai, airfare, medical fees, and processing fees, will not be covered by the company.

These costs amount to approximately Ksh. 167,900. Banks are expected to offer loans to cover these expenses, with repayments due after the riders begin working in Dubai.

“The medical fee is paid first, and the remaining costs can be settled after passing the medicals. This ensures no unnecessary losses,” added the notice.

Interviews will be conducted in Nairobi and Malindi.

In Nairobi, they will take place from December 9 to 11 at Kamukunji TVC, while in Malindi, interviews will be held on December 13 and 14 at Kilifi North TVC. Ministry of Labour officials will be present to ensure that the recruitment process is ethical.

“Successful applicants must be ready to travel to Dubai before the end of the year. I encourage all hustlers, especially bodaboda riders, to seize this opportunity and try their luck,” stated Mutua.

In addition to the Dubai job opportunity, Mutua also announced that 500 nannies are being sought for employment in Saudi Arabia.

4. Improved Efficiency: By reducing time-to-hire and automating parts of the recruitment process, the platform improves overall efficiency for employers. This allows businesses to focus more on their core operations rather than being bogged down by staffing concerns.
