Are you ready to serve your country in a meaningful way? The Ministry of Defence in Kenya is calling on qualified civilians to step up and fill crucial roles within its ranks. But here's where it gets interesting – these positions aren't just for military personnel; they're open to anyone with the right skills and passion for public service. And this is the part most people miss: working in the Ministry of Defence offers a unique opportunity to contribute to national security and development from behind the scenes.
The Ministry is currently inviting applications for several civilian staff positions. If you’re interested and meet the qualifications, here’s what you need to do: fill out the PSC2 (Revised 2016) application form, which you can download from the Public Service Commission’s website at www.publicservice.go.ke. Make sure to attach copies of all required certificates to your application. But here’s where it gets controversial – with so many qualified candidates, how will the selection process ensure fairness and transparency?
Once your application is complete, submit it to the Principal Secretary’s office at the Ministry of Defence. You have two options: mail it to P.O. Box 40668 – 00100, NAIROBI, or hand-deliver it to Ulinzi House gate off Lenana Road. The deadline is 20th January 2026, so mark your calendar and don’t miss out!
