SPARC’s approach – key pillars:
THE POSITION
Under the leadership of the Program Manager, the Coaching and Mentoring Lead will guide work on SPARC’s coaching and mentoring pillar, which aims to build and support a cadre of regional experts from sub-Saharan Africa who can work alongside and provide contextualized support to country-led strategic purchasing processes. SPARC is working with other initiatives like the USAID African Collaborative Health Financing Solutions (ACS) and the USAID Health Systems Strengthening Accelerator (HSS Accelerator) to co-create this “coaching approach,” which is exploring how to provide technical assistance, as well as who should provide the support, to better facilitate country-led health systems change.
The Coaching and Mentoring Lead will be responsible for identifying and developing a pool of regional experts with strategic purchasing expertise who are prepared to provide coaching support to countries. When SPARC country engagements emerge, the Coaching and Mentoring Lead will work closely with the Program Manager and the Executive Director to generate a shortlist of coaches for countries to choose from, and will prepare, support, and monitor coaches throughout their country engagements. The Coaching and Mentoring Lead will also work with the Knowledge Management Lead to ensure that coaching engagements are documented, and knowledge products are developed to support SPARC’s coaching engagements.
The Coaching and Mentoring Lead will also be expected to collaborate with the coaching focal persons from ACS and the HSS Accelerator around the following areas:
