Who we are as a brand

A focused CV and career document brand built in Kenya, aligned with the standards of regional and international job markets.

cvwriting.co.ke is a focused CV and career document brand. We specialise in CVs, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles, and supporting documents that help professionals in Kenya and the region communicate their experience with clarity and confidence.

Our work is Kenya-first but globally aware. We understand the realities of local recruitment – from public sector and parastatals to private sector and NGOs – while also aligning your documents with UK, EU, and US-style expectations where needed.

What defines cvwriting.co.ke

These brand principles guide how we write, position, and deliver every CV and career document.

Specialised in CVs and career communication

We focus on CVs, cover letters, LinkedIn profiles, and supporting documents – not generic or unrelated writing.

Rooted in Kenya’s job market realities

Our work is grounded in how recruitment actually happens across public sector, parastatals, private companies, NGOs, and regional projects.

Guided by evidence-based CV and ATS best practices

We follow clear, tested principles for structure, content, and formatting so your documents work for both ATS tools and human reviewers.

Confidential and professional handling of data

Your CV and personal information are treated as confidential and used only to deliver the services you request.

Who we serve

We support clients at different career stages who want structured, outcome-focused CVs tailored to their next step.

Students & recent graduates

First-time job seekers and recent graduates who need a clear, credible CV for internships, entry-level roles, or graduate programmes – even if their experience feels limited.

We focus on your education, early experience, and potential, and align your CV with the roles you are targeting.

Mid-career professionals

Professionals with a few years of experience who are ready for a step up, a new industry, or a move into a more specialised role.

We help you reposition your experience, highlight achievements, and match your CV to the job descriptions you are actually applying for.

Senior specialists & leaders

Senior professionals, specialists, and managers who need a CV that reflects their responsibilities, scope, and impact without becoming bloated or unfocused.

We structure complex experience into a clear narrative that speaks to high-responsibility roles in Kenya or abroad.

Public sector, NGOs & international roles

Candidates targeting roles in government, parastatals, NGOs, UN agencies, or regional and international organisations.

We align your documents with formal requirements while still showcasing real outcomes and on-the-ground experience.
