Global Communities is seeking Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) Director for the anticipated USAID Lowlands Health Activity in Ethiopia. The purpose of this award is to improve reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health (RMNCAH) outcomes. The overall goal of this Activity is to improve the reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health (RMNCAH) status of women, adolescent girls, and children by building the capacity of urban and peri-urban primary health care units (PHCU) and referral health facilities in planning and delivering client-centered, quality RMNCAH services in five regions in Ethiopia. The activity will build local capacity and closely work with the Ministry of Health (MOH) and will focus on three key, interrelated objectives: 1) improving readiness of the health facilities to deliver client-centered, quality RMNCAH services; 2) strengthening management and accountability for quality RMNCAH services; and 3) restoration of health services in conflict-affected areas.
The MEL Director will oversee the monitoring, evaluation and learning components of the project and develop and manage the MEL Plan. The MEL Director will lead a team to develop and maintain systems to collect data and lead analysis to produce information on inputs, outputs, outcomes and impact of the program. S/he will collaborate with project team members and partners to provide feedback on data collection and indicators; analyze data reported from sub-grantees, and support quality assurance throughout the program. S/he will collaborate with the program team to design operations research (OR) and oversee the implementation of OR projects as well as analysis, dissemination, and use to support program learning. The position will report to the Chief of Party. Recruitment is contingent upon successful award of the project and the selection of the final applicant is subject to USAID approval. Under the leadership of the COP and DCOP, the MEL Director will also lead the adaptation management design and coordinate implementation required under this award to ensure adaptation measurements and course correction are put into place as required to change dynamics within the country and within the health sector.
