PSC Job Vacancies: 5 Positions Open in 2026

The latest PSC Job Vacancies announcement from the Public Service Commission provides an opportunity for qualified persons interested in positions in the public service. The announcement lists five vacancies under two positions: Data Commissioner and Member – Board of Directors, NG-CDF. One vacancy is available for Data Commissioner at the Office of Data Protection Commissioner, while four vacancies are available for Members of the Board of Directors, NG-CDF, under The National Treasury – NG-CDF.

Applicants should pay close attention to the vacancy numbers and closing dates because the two positions have different application deadlines. The Member – Board of Directors, NG-CDF position has an advert closing date of 08.09.2026, while the Data Commissioner position closes on 14.09.2026.

PSC Job Vacancies Available in the Public Service

The Public Service Commission announcement is headed “CALL FOR APPLICATIONS FOR POSITIONS IN THE PUBLIC SERVICE.” It states that applications are invited from qualified persons for the positions shown in the announcement.

There are two advertised positions, providing a combined total of five vacancies.

The positions are:

• No. of Vacancies: 1

The announcement does not provide additional eligibility requirements, qualifications, salary information or benefits in the supplied content. Job seekers who want the complete details of this position should access the Public Service Commission website using the link provided in the announcement.

The vacancy is specifically associated with the Office of Data Protection Commissioner, as stated in the Public Service Commission notice.

Member – Board of Directors, NG-CDF

The second position in the PSC Job Vacancies announcement is Member – Board of Directors, NG-CDF.

The details provided are:

• Post: Member – Board of Directors, NG-CDF

This position accounts for four of the five vacancies announced by the Public Service Commission.

The notice also contains an important instruction for applicants who previously applied under another vacancy number. It states:

“Those who applied for V/No. 135/2026 need not reapply for V/No. 142/2026”

Applicants who fall under this notice should take the instruction into account when considering the Member – Board of Directors, NG-CDF position.

Summary of the PSC Job Vacancies

The five vacancies are distributed between two positions.

The table shows that the Member – Board of Directors, NG-CDF position has the larger number of openings, with four vacancies compared with one vacancy for Data Commissioner.

However, the number of vacancies should not be confused with the eligibility requirements for either position. The supplied announcement does not provide the qualifications or other requirements for the individual posts.

Application Details for the PSC Job Vacancies

The Public Service Commission announcement directs applicants to the Commission’s website for details of the posts and the mode of application.

The website provided in the notice is:

www.publicservice.go.ke

Job seekers should use the Commission’s website to access the details of the advertised positions and information on how applications should be submitted.

The supplied announcement does not state a separate email address, postal address, application form, required documents or other application method. Those details should therefore be obtained from the Commission’s website rather than assumed from the vacancy notice.

Applicants should also make sure they use the correct V/No. when referring to a position. The Data Commissioner position is listed under V/No. 141/2026, while the Member – Board of Directors, NG-CDF position is listed under V/No. 142/2026.

PSC Job Vacancies Closing Dates

The two positions have different advert closing dates.

For Member – Board of Directors, NG-CDF, the advert closing date is:

08.09.2026

For Data Commissioner, the advert closing date is:

14.09.2026

These dates are stated directly in the Public Service Commission announcement. Applicants should therefore check the applicable closing date for the particular position they are interested in.

Because the two positions do not share the same deadline, applicants should not assume that both vacancies close on the later date.

Important Notice for Applicants

One of the most important details in the announcement concerns people who previously applied under V/No. 135/2026.

The notice clearly states that those applicants need not reapply for V/No. 142/2026.

This instruction specifically relates to V/No. 142/2026, which is the Member – Board of Directors, NG-CDF position. The notice should therefore be read alongside the relevant application details available from the Public Service Commission.

Applicants who are not covered by the specific notice should follow the application procedure provided by the Commission for the advertised position.

No Fee for Applications

The Public Service Commission has also included a fraud warning in the announcement.

Applicants are advised to beware of fraudsters who may solicit bribes from members of the public while pretending to be Commission staff.

The notice states that the Public Service Commission does not charge any fee for job applications, shortlisting, interviews or appointments.

This means applicants should not make payments to anyone claiming that a fee is required for any of these processes.

Job seekers should also rely on the information provided through the Public Service Commission’s official website when checking the advertised positions and application procedure.

What Job Seekers Should Check

Before applying for any of the PSC Job Vacancies, applicants should carefully review the complete details of the relevant position.

In particular, the announcement provides the following information that should be matched to the position being considered:

• The exact job title.
• The relevant vacancy number.
• The ministry, state department or institution.
• The number of available vacancies.
• The advert closing date.
• The mode of application and further post details available through the Commission’s website.

For the Data Commissioner position, applicants should refer to V/No. 141/2026 and the 14.09.2026 closing date.

For the Member – Board of Directors, NG-CDF position, applicants should refer to V/No. 142/2026 and the 08.09.2026 closing date.

Applicants who previously applied for V/No. 135/2026 should also note the announcement’s instruction that they do not need to reapply for V/No. 142/2026.

About the Public Service Commission

The announcement identifies the employer as the Public Service Commission and presents its vision as:

“A values – driven citizen-centric public service”

Its mission is stated as:
