Why A&B
What working here is like.
Partner-led from day one
You'll work alongside the partners on real client problems, and learn how they think, not just what they decide.
The whole business, not one schedule
Tax, accounting, systems and advisory sit under one roof, so you see how the pieces connect for each client.
East Africa and beyond
Clients expanding across the region and structuring offshore give the work a reach most early roles don't.
Room to build
In a young firm, a better way of doing the work becomes the way the work is done.

A note on recruitment fraud
Asili & Busara never charges candidates a fee at any stage, and never asks for payment for interviews, training, medical checks or work permits. We recruit only through this page. If anyone asks you for money in our name, don't pay, and please tell us through our enquiry form.

We use your application only to assess you for roles at Asili & Busara, in line with Kenya's Data Protection Act, 2019. Your CV is stored securely and seen only by the partners. We keep applications for 12 months and then delete them, unless you ask us through our enquiry form to delete yours sooner. We keep you in our talent pool only if you tick the box.

Questions
Before you apply.
Do you offer internships or industrial attachments?
When we open attachment places, they'll be posted on this page first. In the meantime, you can register your interest through the general application form above.
Can I apply for more than one role?
Yes. Send a separate application for each role, and tell us in your note which one interests you most.
I'm still completing CPA(K), ACCA or CPS(K). Can I apply?
For associate roles we look for candidates at the final level or already qualified. If you're earlier in your studies, send a general application and tell us where you are.
Will I hear back?
Yes. A partner reads every application, and every applicant gets a reply, whatever the outcome.
