The African Population and Health Research Center (APHRC) has opened a recruitment window for Kenyan job seekers who scored at least a mean grade of C (plain) in the Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE).
In a notice released recently, the research institution announced vacancies for Health Facility Assessment Interviewers to support data collection for an upcoming project in Murang'a County.
The positions are project-based and are expected to run from April 2026. Interested candidates must submit their applications by Wednesday, March 11, 2026, through APHRC’s official online recruitment system.
Requirements
Applicants must:
Hold a KCSE certificate with a minimum mean grade of C (plain).
Demonstrate experience or skills in quantitative data collection, particularly in health facility settings.
Be proficient in using digital tools such as survey software for data capture.
Communicate effectively in both English and Kiswahili.
Be available to work full-time for the entire duration of the project.
Candidates residing in Murang’a County may have an added advantage.
Key Responsibilities
Successful applicants will be required to:

Ensure data accuracy, integrity, and quality control.
Complete assigned daily field tasks within project timelines.
APHRC has emphasized that no application fee is required at any stage of the recruitment process and warned applicants against making payments to anyone claiming to facilitate the job.
Broader Context
The recruitment aligns with ongoing efforts by research institutions and public agencies in Kenya to engage youth and early-career job seekers in fieldwork opportunities that support data-driven policy development.
For many KCSE graduates, especially recent school leavers, such roles offer valuable work experience and exposure in the public health research sector.
