CHAI Job Vacancy 2022
Job Purpose: Vector control interventions (e.g. bed nets and indoor residual spraying) reduce human contact with disease-carrying mosquitoes and are responsible for an estimated 78% of the decline of malaria in Sub-Saharan Africa since 2000. Vector control programs often comprise the largest proportion of a malaria program’s budget; thus, ensuring that these tools are appropriately targeted, implemented, and monitored is incredibly important against a backdrop of rising commodity costs and declining financial resources. CHAI supports National Malaria Control Programs (NMCPs) around the world by providing analytical, operational, and management expertise to help countries optimize the efficiency and effectiveness of vector control interventions, including campaigns, to achieve maximal health impact.
Responsibilities:
- Serve as a trusted adviser to CHAI country teams and regional technical leads, and national malaria programs, on issues related to vector control operations
- Provide technical and operational support with implementing vector control interventions, including long-lasting insecticidal nets, indoor residual spraying, and larval source management, in targeted foci of malaria transmission. This includes ensuring that vector control campaigns are planned and executed well, and identifying and disseminating lessons learned after intervention roll-outs
- Support robust M&E of vector control interventions, including capturing meaningful indicators in clear forms, analyzing the data in a timely manner, and applying the data to decisions
- Review evidence and determine appropriate approaches and strategies for improving operations through digitization. Facilitate digitization efforts in appropriate contexts, including in data planning, collection, and analysis, as well as remuneration of campaign workers. In settings where campaign digitization is undertaken, work with CHAI staff and country programs to identify and resolve operational barriers to digitization
- Assist country teams and national programs with translating evidence, current research, and normative guidelines on vector control into practical programmatic and field operations
- Support country teams to evaluate research on evidence of new intervention products and roll out of complementary interventions such as larval source management, as appropriate
- Support CHAI country programs with commodity and resource quantifications, targeting, and waste management plans
- Support CHAI country teams with translating results of M&E data analysis to national and sub-national government partners to support evidence-based decision-making, and disseminating findings through high-quality and clear presentations, reports, and publications
- Scope innovative approaches to increasing efficiency and effectiveness of vector control implementation
Qualification & Experience:
- Bachelor or Master’s degree in biology, social sciences, business, public health, or a related field
- 2-3 years of relevant work experience
- Able to travel frequently (up to 60% of time) and extensively across sub-Saharan Africa
- Strong quantitative, presentation, and writing skills, including fluency in MS Excel, PowerPoint, and Word
- Excellent written and oral communications skills, including report-writing skills
- Exceptional attention to detail
- Excellent organization and management skills, including time management and project management
- Demonstrated ability to work both independently and collaboratively in unstructured settings and to adapt to new environments and challenges
- Ability to handle multiple tasks simultaneously and set priorities in remote settings
