NCBA has launched the third cohort of its Go-Getter Internship Programme. This welcomes a fresh group of 50 graduates into a year-long journey to shape the next generation of corporate leaders.
The programme, which has become a key part of NCBA’s talent development efforts, provides young graduates with more than just work experience. Over the next 12 months, the selected interns will gain hands-on exposure to the fast-paced banking world, guided by industry professionals. The most outstanding performers may also find themselves at the top of the list for full-time roles within the bank.
Speaking during the launch, NCBA Group Managing Director John Gachora highlighted the bank’s long-term vision for the programme said, “The Go-Getter Internship Programme reflects our belief that the future of our economy lies in the potential of our youth. By providing hands-on experience and strategic mentorship, we are building a workforce that is ready to lead and innovate the next generation.”
The programme sits under NCBA’s broader “Change the Story” sustainability platform, specifically under its Youth Mentorship and Coaching commitment. The programme is not about banking skills only; those taking part will also get mentorship, leadership training and opportunities to build their confidence in a professional environment.
To qualify, applicants must have graduated within the past year and earned at least a Second-Class Upper Division in their undergraduate degree. They should also have scored a minimum of a B- in both English and Mathematics in KCSE. Each year, the internship call is announced through NCBA’s official website.
Monicah Kihia, NCBA’s Group Director for HR and Culture, emphasized the programme’s role in nurturing a culture of high performance added, “At NCBA, we believe in investing in the next generation of professionals by providing them with a platform to learn, grow, and make meaningful contributions to the industry.”
As the new cohort gets started, NCBA continues to double down on its commitment to youth empowerment, inclusion, and sustainable growth — proving that corporate success and meaningful social impact can go hand in hand.
