Global Communities works at the intersection of humanitarian assistance, sustainable development and financial inclusion to save lives, advance equity and secure strong futures. We support communities at the forefront of their own development in more than 35 countries, partnering with local leaders, governments, civil society and the private sector to achieve a shared vision of a more just, prosperous and equitable global community. We work with government, non-government, private sector, and community stakeholders to promote transparency, foster accountability, and access the channels they need to make their voices heard, promote change, and realize their full potential.
Global Communities is seeking Monitoring, Evaluation, Research and Learning (MEL) Director for the anticipated USAID Ghana Health Program – HIV. This five-year program seeks to increase HIV case finding and linkage to care and treatment - including viral load suppression, in geographic focus areas of Ghana. The Ghana Health Program builds on Ghana’s health and development progress to date in advancing the delivery of integrated HIV health services for key and priority populations. Technical assistance and service delivery activities will build the capacity, sustainability, and resilience of local institutions and regional health directorates. USAID envisions assistance under this program will significantly contribute to Ghana’s progress outlined in national strategies addressing integration of HIV health service delivery.
The MERL Director will lead the design and oversight of the project MERL and Collaboration, Learning and Adaption (CLA) activities. The MERL 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. Under the leadership of the COP and DCOP, the MERL 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. We are looking for passionate, dedicated professionals to help us build the world we envision: one of expanded opportunity, where crises give way to resilience and all people thrive.
