About Eagle HR
Built for the institutionsthat cannot get it wrong.
Eagle HR Consultants was founded in 2017 to serve organisations where HR mistakes are expensive and public: regulators, banks, state corporations and development bodies.
Our story
Founded in 2017
Today the senior client record names 70+ organisations across banking, regulators, development and the private sector.
Transformhow institutions run people.
The firm was set up to take on talent acquisition, compliance and workforce administration that many organisations in Kenya still run as an afterthought. Those are the areas that decide whether a hire, a payroll run or a board paper holds up.
Today the firm works with public bodies, Saccos, manufacturers and NGOs on recruitment, job evaluation, salary surveys and outsourced labour.
Kenyan labour law, SHIF and public-sector pay structures are handled in the ordinary course of work. The same standard applies whether the brief is a hire, a grade structure or a monthly payroll.
The practice is run from the 10th floor of Western Heights in Westlands. Briefs, interview panels and grade workshops happen in this office. Clients who brief from elsewhere still get the same record of what was agreed and what was delivered.
Training, employer-of-record cover, psychometric assessments and HR documentation sit on the same book. They are live assignments, held to the same standard as a hire or a monthly payroll.
