Nairobi: Turn Your Skills Into Real Income on Lumo

Good Work Is Hard to Find Right Now

If you live in Nairobi, you already know how tough the job market can be. Too many people with real skills—driving across town, caring for animals, fixing tech problems—are stuck in work that undervalues what they bring. You deserve better than that.

Lumo is building a marketplace where your existing skills actually pay. We're looking for 300 independent contractors across Nairobi who are ready to take on local jobs, set their own hours, and keep 90% of what they earn. You get paid the same day, every time.

Three Types of Work, Your Choice

You decide which jobs to accept. Here's what's available:

• Delivery: Move food, groceries, and packages across Nairobi by car, bike, or scooter. Perfect if you know the city and like staying on the move.
• Pet care: Dog walking, pet sitting, and drop-in visits for neighbours who need reliable help. Great for animal lovers with a flexible schedule.
• Tech help: Set up Wi-Fi, TVs, printers, and phones for people who need a hand. If you're good with gadgets, this work suits you.

Every job is posted by a real customer in your area. You see the details, the pay, and you choose whether to take it.

Earn What Your Time Is Worth

When you complete your first 100 jobs on Lumo, you'll receive a loyalty bonus of 12,987 KES (about $100 USD). But the real value is in the work itself: you control your schedule, you keep nearly everything you earn, and you're paid the same day.

Whether you're in Westlands, Eastleigh, Karen, or anywhere else in Nairobi, the jobs come to you. No commute to someone else's office. No waiting two weeks for a paycheck.
