The Wikimedia Community Usergroup in Uganda is primarily a volunteer based, run, organisation. However, as the organisation grows, there develops a need for staff, and professional services.

Secondary priority can also be given to outstanding candidates who can meet job requirements.
We invite all interested job seekers to express interest under this section.
On Friday 5th August 2022, the Usergroup shared an opening for an Accountant position, the short notice call, was closed on Monday 5th August 2022 with 7 applications received.
The process, and successful candidates were meant to be announced by 10 August 2022, but due to the annual Wikimania conference, this might be delayed by a week. Updates will be shared on this meta page.
The hiring process, selection, and interviews will be conducted by the Board selected representative (s), who will work closely with Finance and Administration to select a possible candidate.
If the selected candidate has never volunteered with the Usergroup for a specific period of time, and depending on the duration of volunteering, they might be required to undergo an internship before any job offers.
Due to unavoidable delays, successful candidates and the criteria will be shared by October 2022
