Established in 2019, Shaqo Kaab Solutions works with employers, institutions, entrepreneurs and professionals to solve workforce and organisational challenges, connect talent with opportunity, strengthen businesses and modernise HR operations.
Our work spans Somaliland, Somalia, Ethiopia, Djibouti, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania and Zimbabwe, and extends across the wider East African region, while our model also enables us to support diaspora professionals, international organisations and organisations seeking regional expertise — across four interconnected business pillars, with Training & Workforce Development operating across all four.
To strengthen organisations and expand employment opportunities by delivering integrated people, business, workforce-development and digital HR solutions that improve capability, performance and sustainable growth.
To become East Africa's trusted international partner for talent, organisational transformation, business development and HR technology — connecting people with opportunity and enabling organisations to thrive in the future of work.
"Shaqo means work or employment in Somali. Kaab represents the idea of supporting, assisting or enabling." — together, a partner connecting People, Business and Technology.
"Welcome to Shaqo Kaab Solutions.
Since our establishment in 2019, Shaqo Kaab Solutions has been driven by a clear purpose: to connect people with opportunities, strengthen organizations, and develop practical solutions that contribute to sustainable business and workforce growth.
What began as an employment and human resources solutions company in Somaliland has progressively evolved into a broader professional services organization. Today, we work across employment and talent solutions, HR consulting and organizational development, business solutions, and technology-enabled business solutions, supporting organizations and professionals across Somaliland, Somalia, Ethiopia, Djibouti, the wider East African region, and beyond.
Our growth has been shaped by the changing needs of the organizations and communities we serve. As workplaces become more competitive, technology-driven, and interconnected, businesses require more than individual services — they need trusted partners who understand their people, operations, systems, markets, and long-term objectives.
At Shaqo Kaab Solutions, our approach begins with understanding before advising. We take the time to understand each organization, its workforce, operating environment, challenges, and ambitions before developing solutions. By combining internationally recognized professional practices with local and regional knowledge, we aim to provide solutions that are practical, relevant, scalable, and implementable.
We are equally committed to developing internal capability. Our goal is not simply to provide recommendations, but to help organizations build the people, systems, knowledge, technology, and institutional capacity required to continue performing long after an assignment has been completed.
As we look to the future, our ambition is to continue strengthening Shaqo Kaab Solutions as a trusted HR, employment, business, and technology solutions partner, while expanding our regional and international reach and contributing to stronger businesses, more capable workforces, and greater economic opportunities.
Whether you are an organization seeking to strengthen your workforce and business systems, an employer searching for the right talent, an SME preparing for growth, or a professional pursuing your next opportunity, we welcome you to Shaqo Kaab Solutions and look forward to being part of your journey.
Building People. Strengthening Organizations. Creating Opportunities."

Build My Business Systems →Entrepreneurs often build businesses faster than they build the internal systems required to manage them. Shaqo Kaab helps entrepreneurs, startups and growing businesses establish stronger organisational foundations — moving from founder-led to system-led.

Start Your HR Digital Transformation →Buying software does not automatically transform HR. Effective digital transformation begins by understanding how people work, identifying inefficient processes, and determining what should be simplified, standardised, automated or redesigned.
Beyond HR systems, we build the public face of your organisation. Dolaal Ventures — powered by Shaqo Kaab Solutions — designs professional, mobile-friendly websites for NGOs, businesses and corporates, and handles the hosting, security, mobile money payments and graphic marketing that keep them working.

Current vacancies Shaqo Kaab Solutions is advertising on behalf of client organisations across Somaliland, Somalia, Ethiopia and Djibouti.

Shaqo Kaab vacancies run for one month from the posting date. Roles syndicated from Somalijobs keep that platform's own closing date and carry the employer's own logo.
Every application receives an automatic confirmation by email. Our talent team then reviews it against the client's requirements and contacts shortlisted candidates directly. If you do not hear from us about a particular vacancy, your profile stays in our database for future roles.

Shaqo Kaab Solutions is built on practitioner experience — people who have sat on both sides of the HR table, in global staffing firms and in Somaliland institutions.
Idil founded Shaqo Kaab Solutions to bring institutional-grade HR practice to Somaliland's growing banks, NGOs and public institutions. Her career spans global staffing firms — Manpower, Adecco, Kelly Services and Randstad — alongside cross-sector HR work in IT, health and science, finance, construction and the NGO sector, built across Canada, Ethiopia and Somaliland.
Her practice sits at the intersection of Somaliland labour law, institutional HR reform and talent management. She is completing an MBA in Human Resource Management at Gollis University, and was a founding force behind the Somaliland Human Resource Association (SLHRA), established to set national standards and build a professional network for the sector.
All articles, frameworks and published material on this site are authored and owned by Shaqo Kaab Solutions, whoever within the firm writes them.
Idil leads every engagement personally. As the practice grows, talent associates and consultants will join the team — handling candidate sourcing, screening and shortlisting across client mandates, and maintaining the talent database that employers draw on. They will be listed here as they join.
If you are an HR or recruitment professional in the Horn of Africa and want to be considered, send your profile to jobs@shaqo-kaab.com.
Our training is delivered by a panel of accredited trainers and facilitators drawn from banking, NGO and public-sector practice, working bilingually in English and Somali under the firm’s Trainers, Lecturers & Facilitators policy.
Panel members are assigned to a programme on the basis of sector experience and the language the cohort needs. Where a programme calls for a specialism outside the panel, we bring in an accredited associate rather than stretch the brief.
We work with accredited trainers and facilitators across the Horn of Africa.

This notice explains what we do with your information when you send us a CV, apply for a role, register for training, or contact us through this website.
Shaqo Kaab Solutions is an HR outsourcing, consulting and recruitment firm at Qalib Business Centre, 2nd Floor, Jigjiga-Yar, Koodbur District, Marodi-Jeh, Hargeisa, Somaliland. For any question about your information, write to info@shaqo-kaab.com.
From candidates: your name and contact details, your CV, your employment and education history, your qualifications, and the roles or sectors you are interested in. From training participants: your registration details, your organisation and your attendance. From visitors to this site: standard technical information such as IP address and pages visited, used to keep the site working and secure.
To match you to vacancies and present you to employers, to deliver the services we have been engaged for, to contact you about opportunities relevant to you, and to meet our obligations under Somaliland law — including the Labour (Amendments & Additions) Law No. 31/2020.
We do not sell your information to anyone. Your profile goes to an employer only when we are actively shortlisting you for a role. Our practice is to tell you which employer before we release a full profile; where a client is recruiting on an undisclosed basis we will tell you the sector and location instead, so you can decide whether to proceed. We also use service providers — our website host, our email provider and our recruitment systems — who see only what they need in order to operate those services.
We aim to hold candidate profiles for around three years from your last contact with us, and records of completed engagements and training for as long as contractual, tax or certification requirements need them. We may keep information longer where the law, a regulator or a client contract requires it, or where it is needed to establish or defend a legal claim.
You may ask us for a copy of what we hold, to correct anything wrong, to delete your profile, to stop contacting you, or to stop sharing your profile with employers. Email info@shaqo-kaab.com. There is no charge for a reasonable request. We aim to respond within 30 days and will tell you if we need longer. We may ask you to confirm your identity first.
We never charge a candidate to register, to apply, or to be placed. If anyone asks you for a payment in our name, please tell us.
Access to your information is limited to the staff who need it, our systems are access-controlled, and our people and trainers are bound by confidentiality obligations. We will update this notice when our practices change, and the review date above will tell you when it last changed.
If you believe we have handled your information improperly, contact us first at info@shaqo-kaab.com so that we can put it right. You keep any right you have to pursue the matter through the courts of Somaliland.
Our full Terms of Service, Data Protection Policy and Intellectual Property Policy are in preparation and will be published here once finalised.
