Every role below is advertised by the organisation named against it, not by Shaqo Kaab Solutions. Each one links directly to that employer’s own hiring page or application address, and each keeps the closing date set by whoever advertised it. We do not screen these applications, and we are not the recruiting agency for any of them.
Where Shaqo Kaab Solutions is itself recruiting — for our own team, or on behalf of a client who has asked not to be named — the listing carries the Shaqo Kaab Solutions logo, applications are screened by our talent team, shortlists go to the client directly, and the vacancy runs for one month from the posting date. There are no Shaqo Kaab vacancies in this week’s edition.
These are publicly advertised vacancies that we have gathered, checked and summarised for our registered candidates. Every application route below was verified on 21 October 2026.

Mogadishu · Headquarters · Permanent · One position · Expected start January 2027

Economist Officer — Central Bank of Somalia
Mogadishu · Headquarters · Permanent · One position · Expected start January 2027
Closes 31 October 2026.
Apply to recruitment@centralbank.gov.so
Two permanent posts at the Central Bank in the same week is worth pausing on. Permanent central bank appointments are scarce, they are graded roles with a defined career path, and the institution is one of the few employers in the region that will still be hiring at this level in five years. If you hold a degree in economics, statistics or finance, treat these as the serious openings of the month.
Health

Mogadishu · Full time
Closes 10 November 2026.
Apply on the WHO careers portal

Integrated Service Delivery Officer — UN Volunteers, serving with WHO
Somalia · UN Volunteer assignment
Read this carefully. This role is advertised under WHO’s name but it is a United Nations Volunteers assignment, not a WHO staff post. UNV assignments carry a volunteer living allowance and UNV conditions of service, which are not the same as a UN salary scale. Check the terms before you commit.
Closes 3 November 2026.
Apply on the UN Volunteers portal
Health Emergency Preparedness Officer — UN Volunteers, serving with WHO
Somalia · UN Volunteer assignment
Supports federal and state health ministries on emergency preparedness, early warning and contingency planning. As above, this is a UNV assignment rather than a WHO staff appointment — check the conditions of service.
Closes 3 November 2026.
Apply on the UN Volunteers portal
Midwife Activity Manager — Médecins Sans Frontières
Galkayo, Mudug · Fixed term, one year, with a three-month probation period
Covers both Galkayo South and Galkayo North, based in Galkayo South.
Closes 1 November 2026.
Apply on the MSF jobs board — note this opens their full vacancy list, so you will need to find the Midwife Activity Manager role on that page.

Mogadishu · Full time · Band 3
Closes 30 October 2026.
Apply to hr@srcs-bishacas.org
Nutrition Nurse — Somali Red Crescent Society

Health Science Lecturer — SOS Children’s Villages International
Mogadishu · Full time · Reports to the Vice Chancellor
Re-advertised, which usually means the first round did not produce a suitable candidate — worth applying even if you thought you had missed it.
Closes 25 October 2026 — four days from now.
Apply on the SOS Children’s Villages careers portal
NGO and development
Finance Assistant — Save the Children International

Finance Manager — Sabar Airlines
Nairobi, with regular travel to Mogadishu, Juba and Hargeisa · Fixed contract, twelve months, renewable on satisfactory performance · Reports to the General Manager
Sabar operates routes connecting Nairobi, Mogadishu, Juba and Hargeisa. The post is based in Nairobi, so it would mean relocation and a Kenyan work permit — check both before applying. Applications are taken through an online form rather than a careers portal.
Closes 2 November 2026.

What we left out, and why
Seven postings this week were tenders, Terms of Reference or individual consultant solicitations rather than employment vacancies. Those are procurement exercises run through bidding portals, and answering them as a jobseeker wastes your time. They included two Hargeisa Local Government consultancies under the Somali Urban Resilience Project, a UNDP fisheries review in Puntland, and needs-assessment work for ActionAid and Mercy Corps.
No ICT or human resources vacancies were advertised this week. If that is your field, nothing was missed — the market was quiet. The WHO health information systems post above is the closest thing to a technology role currently open.
