For Sunil, the move to Kenya wasn’t just a career change, it was the start of a life-changing journey. Coming from years of experience in Russia, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan, moving to East Africa was a bold step into the unknown. Yet, two years later, he describes the move as one of the most rewarding chapters of his career and life.
Professionally, he found a work environment full of possibilities. As CEO of one of East Africa’s leading steel companies, he discovered a company culture that values respect and encourages independent decision-making. He also saw enormous growth potential within a rapidly expanding organization, proving that Kenya is a place where careers can grow alongside the country’s own development.
On a personal level, life in Kenya offered more than he expected. Sunil found the city to be safe and welcoming, with a lifestyle that balances comfort and opportunity. He noted the abundance of fresh produce, the quality education available at international schools, and the straightforward process of finding secure housing. The vibrant cultural communities add to the richness of daily life, while strong travel connections to India and beyond make Kenya feel both globally connected and locally fulfilling.
At the same time, Sunil also experienced Kampala, Uganda, as a warm and welcoming city. With secure housing, international schools, and thriving communities, it is a place where professionals can quickly feel at home, something especially relevant for those considering a career opportunity in Uganda today.
For Veronica, this case was unique. It was her first time recruiting for a CEO position in Kenya, which made the assignment both exciting and challenging.
During their very first conversation, Sunil’s professionalism and personality stood out. As a result, Veronica immediately recognized his potential and knew he was an excellent fit for the client.
What makes this happy candidate case even more special is how the relationship evolved. Consequently, Sunil transitioned from being a candidate to becoming a trusted contact for our client in Kenya. This shows how successful recruitment can create strong and lasting professional bonds.
After the successful placement, Sunil signed a two-year contract as CEO in Kenya.
Two years later, he remains highly satisfied in his position and continues to thrive in his role. His journey is proof that the right guidance and professional match can lead to lasting success.
In conclusion, this happy candidate case is a clear example of how Alert goes beyond simply filling a vacancy. By combining personal support, professional expertise, and international experience, we help both candidates and clients succeed.
For Sunil, the result was more than just a job; it was a long-term career opportunity that continues to bring him success and satisfaction.
