NEW JOB VACANCIES ANNOUNCED BY GWAMBINA GROUP LIMITED

In February 2026, Gwambina Group Limited, a 100% Tanzanian-owned powerhouse in the hospitality and facilities management sector, announced the opening of its high-impact Catering & Facility Support Training Program. This initiative, offering 40 positions, is designed to bridge the skills gap for Tanzanian youth and create a pipeline of professional talent for the group’s expanding operations in mining, corporate catering, and remote site management.

Headquartered at the PSSSF Commercial Complex in Dar es Salaam, Gwambina Group has built a sterling reputation since its founding in 2022. By maintaining ISO 22000:2018 certification and strictly adhering to HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) guidelines, the company ensures that its trainees are exposed to international standards of food safety and operational excellence. This three-month program is not just a classroom exercise; it is a “pathway to employment” where top performers are fast-tracked into permanent roles within the organization.
