Senior Program Implementation Lead Job Opportunity at D-tree International

Job Overview

Senior Program Implementation Lead

Reports to: Zanzibar Director
Location: Zanzibar
Start Date: February or March 2023

Who we are

D-tree International is a global digital health organization dedicated to ensuring that everyone has access to high-quality primary healthcare in underserved areas. We do this by working with governments to design, build and deploy digital tools for frontline health workers that improve their ability to deliver high-quality, evidence-based care. D-tree engages with governments to develop a shared vision for the potential of digital health, demonstrates the effectiveness of digital systems to improve health outcomes, and accompanies governments to scale these digital systems nationally and institutionalize them within their broader health systems.

Since 2011, D-tree has partnered with the Zanzibar Ministry of Health to implement an innovative digital health program, Jamii ni Afya (“Community is health”) supporting Community Health Volunteers to provide health services within their communities. This program has consistently demonstrated improved health outcomes, a strengthened community health system, and increased use of data for decision-making. Over time, Jamii ni Afya has grown from a pilot to a national program and has demonstrated how digital technology can transform the quality of a health system. This represents the world’s first nationally scaled digital community health program, bringing high quality health services to the doorsteps of all of Zanzibar. The digital health program reached full scale in August 2021, allowing D-tree to focus on program sustainability, quality and impact. We are currently focused on transitioning all aspects of Jamii ni Afya to the Government of Zanzibar (GoZ). A transition plan is being finalized which outlines the GoZ commitment to increasingly taking full ownership for the program. By 2026, the GoZ will fully own and lead Jamii ni Afya in the areas of political/financial leadership, technology and program implementation.

What you will do

We are recruiting for a Senior Program Implementation Lead to lead transitioning the daily Jamii ni Afya program implementation, operations, and management to the government. As an integral part of D-tree Zanzibar’s leadership team, you will work closely with the Director, Deputy Director and the team leads who are responsible for transitioning Jamii ni Afya’s financial and technology ownership to the government. Together you will ensure that the GoZ has the commitment, skills, systems, support, and long-term plans required to take on full ownership of Jamii ni Afya into the future. Specifically, the Senior Program Implementation Lead will be responsible for ensuring the national, zonal and district-level health teams have the buy-in, capacity, and support needed to manage Jamii ni Afya, oversee its implementation, facilitate program operations, and ensure that CHVs deliver high quality services to families across Zanzibar. This includes ensuring that the GoZ is able to independently manage the following aspects of Jamii ni Afya:

Programmatic:

  • CHV replacement and refresher trainings
  • Regular and targeted supervision
  • District-level management of the Jamii ni Afya program, including oversight of supervisors of CHVs
  • District level IT support and basic troubleshooting, with clear standard operating procedures to escalate challenging IT issues
  • Data use to inform program planning and budget requests at the national and district level
  • National level decision-making around Jamii ni Ayfa, including expansion of CHV service delivery package;
  • CHV compensation or workload changes; and coordinating partner support.

Operations and Coordination:

  • Timely and efficient mobile money payment of CHV and Supervisor stipends using the automated pay-for-performance system
  • Timely issuing of data bundles to CHV and Supervisor mobile phones to facilitate app data syncing
  • Adequate district-level budgeting for program activities in annual budgets, and oversight of budgets throughout the year
  • Coordination of community health partners interest and support towards a unified vision for a Community Health Program in Zanzibar

Quality:

  • Regular district and national-level data reviews to inform planning and prioritization of activities
  • Monitoring of CHV performance, and appropriate action taken to ensure CHVs consistently meet performance targets
  • Monitoring of program dashboards and ensuring appropriate follow-up and interventions to improve key health indicators
  • Review the CHV supervisor and CHV Pay for Performance scheme based on implementation learnings and program achievements and revise the structure as needed
  • Revise the Jamii ni Afya app content to accommodate new national service delivery guidelines or expansion in package of services or target group

You will achieve this through strategic programmatic leadership in which you will champion the vision for this transition and inspire D-tree staff and MOH partners to see it through; oversee a team of about 15 national, zonal and district-level MOH staff to ensure strong plans are in place to execute this vision; directly build the skills of MOH stakeholders; strengthen required MOH systems; and represent D-tree within Technical Working Groups, at high-level meetings and in other forums to advance the Jamii ni Afya programmatic transition and D-tree interests more generally.

Who you are

You are a highly motivated, inspiring and committed individual who has a deep understanding of the Zanzibar community health system and existing strong relationships with key health system actors at the national and district levels. You have experience fostering government ownership of health systems initiatives, and extensive experience in building skills and capacity of government teams to fully own health programs. You are able to rally people behind an inspiring shared vision, and develop and execute plans to achieve that vision. You are a strong people manager with experience managing teams of government staff, and take pride in supporting the development of those you oversee. And importantly, you are committed to D-tree’s vision of a world in which everyone has access to high-quality healthcare.
