Growing Our Team to Serve More of Kenya

Robu Cleaning Services started in 1997 with three employees. Today we employ over 415 people across our branch network in the North Rift, South Rift, Central Rift, Western, Nairobi, Mombasa and Nyanza regions, and that number keeps growing as we take on new sites and new clients.

Every new hire goes through the same vetting process, regardless of role. We collect national ID and academic testimonials, we call and verify reference letters from past employers ourselves rather than taking them at face value, and every employee is required to obtain a certificate of good conduct from the C.I.D. before they're placed on any client site.

Once hired, staff go through continuous training at our fully equipped in-house training unit at the Eldoret head office. We also involve our employees directly in drafting our workplace policies, and every employee reads and signs our rules and regulations, covering dress code, respect, punctuality and honesty, which we review annually.

This is the same standard whether someone is joining as a cleaner, a messenger, a tea-service attendant, a groundsman, or a pest control technician. It's how we've been able to grow the way we have while keeping the standards our clients expect.
