About the Big Job Opportunity at URA Coming soon
If you’ve been dreaming of working with the Uganda Revenue Authority (URA), this might be your big break. URA has announced plans to recruit 1,260 new staff as part of a major expansion aimed at improving tax collection across the country—especially from wealthier individuals and booming sectors like construction, transport, and professional services.
This hiring drive is part of a broader strategy to boost domestic revenue, reduce reliance on external aid, and modernize Uganda’s tax system. Speaking on the development, State Minister for Finance, Hon. Henry Musasizi, emphasized that URA is “stepping up efforts to curb corruption and bring more high-income earners into the tax bracket.”
