Why EventSuri

We are solving a real problem in a market that matters.

Kenya has one of Africa's most vibrant event cultures. Concerts, conferences, festivals, workshops, sports events, community gatherings — events happen everywhere, every week. Yet discovering what is happening is still scattered across WhatsApp groups, social media posts and word of mouth.

EventSuri is building the infrastructure to change that. A single place to discover, book and attend events across Kenya — and the tools for organisers to manage their events without needing five different systems.

We are an early-stage platform with a focused, ambitious team. If you want to work on something that matters in Africa's fastest growing economies, EventSuri is a place worth thinking about.

What we are building
Event discovery The simplest way to find what is happening in your city
Online ticketing Fast, reliable ticket sales with M-Pesa and card support
Digital entry QR code tickets and check-in tools for event doors
Organiser tools Everything an organiser needs to manage their event
Community features Organiser profiles, followers and event recommendations
Pan-African vision Starting in Kenya and expanding across the continent
Our Values

How we work.

These are not slogans on a wall. They are how we make decisions, treat each other and build the product.

Build for the user
Every decision starts with the person using the product. We ask what makes their experience simpler, faster and more reliable before anything else.
Move with intent
We move quickly but not carelessly. We ship, learn and iterate. Speed comes from clarity, not from cutting corners on things that matter.
Be direct and honest
We say what we think, give real feedback and do not hide bad news. Honest communication builds better products and better teams.
Take ownership
Everyone at EventSuri is responsible for outcomes, not just tasks. We do not wait to be told what to fix. If something is broken, we fix it.
Think for Africa
We are building for Kenya first, but we make decisions with the wider continent in mind. Local first, global in ambition.
Keep getting better
We are not precious about how things were done yesterday. We are always looking for a better way and we encourage the same in everyone around us.
Benefits

What working here looks like.

We are an early-stage company. We cannot offer everything a large corporation can. But we offer things that matter.

Remote-friendly work
Work from wherever you do your best work. We care about output, not location.
Real equity in the outcome
You are joining early. The work you do here has a direct impact on the platform and on what it becomes.
Flexible hours
We are outcome-focused. We do not track hours. We track progress.
Learning and development
Access to learning resources, tools and the opportunity to grow as the company grows.
Small, capable team
Work directly with people who built the platform from scratch. No layers. No bureaucracy.
Ownership of your work
You will own real areas of the product. Your decisions will ship and users will experience them.
Nairobi-based option
For those in Nairobi, in-person collaboration is available. We value both remote and in-office contributors.
Early team recognition
Joining early means your contribution is visible, valued and part of the company story.

What we look for

Skills matter. So does who you are.

We hire people who are skilled at their craft and who genuinely want to build something useful. We do not care about where you studied or whether you have worked at a well-known company.

We care about whether you can think clearly, communicate honestly, take ownership of your work and build things that work well for real people.

Most of all, we are looking for people who are curious about the problem we are solving and who want to be part of building a platform that matters for events in Kenya and Africa.

  • Clear thinker You think through problems carefully before acting and you can explain your reasoning simply.
  • Direct communicator You say what you mean, give honest feedback and do not leave people guessing.
  • Ownership mentality You take responsibility for outcomes. When something goes wrong, you fix it rather than explain why it was not your fault.
  • Fast learner You pick up new skills quickly and you are not attached to doing things the way you have always done them.
  • Cares about the mission You understand why accessible event discovery and ticketing matters for Kenya and you are genuinely interested in building it.
  • Gets things done You ship. You do not wait for perfect conditions. You deliver and then improve.
How to Apply

Simple. No lengthy process.

We respect your time. Our hiring process is straightforward and we give clear feedback at every stage.

Life at EventSuri

An early team building something that matters.

EventSuri is an early-stage company. That means fewer people, more ownership, less process and a direct line between the work you do and what users experience.

We do not have a sprawling corporate culture. We have a focused team that cares about building a good product for a real market. That means some things will be rough around the edges and we will ask you to help fix them.

If you want a comfortable, well-defined role with clear boundaries, EventSuri is probably not the right fit right now. If you want to build, learn quickly and have real impact on a platform that is growing — we want to hear from you.
