Mentorship and Supervision

• Provide structured supervision and coaching to other M&E and other staff.
• Build capacity in data interpretation, storytelling, and using tools such as Power BI, Excel, Kobo, and DHIS2.
• Foster a culture of inquiry, shared learning, and respect across generations and disciplines.

Required Qualifications

Who You Are

• A Kenyan national with a bachelor’s degree in public health, health information and records management, biostatistics, epidemiology, health informatics, or a related field. A master’s degree in any of these fields is an added advantage.
• You bring a minimum of 7 years of progressive experience in M&E roles within health programs, preferably in MNCHIN.
• You have a strong foundation in M&E frameworks, health information systems (especially DHIS2), and indicator development.
• You’re highly organized, detail-oriented, and can manage multiple timelines without losing sight of strategy.
• You’ve worked closely with government structures (MOH, county health departments, especially Nairobi City County) and understand how to navigate them effectively.
• You have strong writing, analysis, and communication skills, and are comfortable synthesizing complex data for diverse audiences.
• You’re confident with digital tools — Excel, Power BI, Kobo, and other mobile or cloud-based platforms.
• You’re a natural coach or mentor, comfortable guiding younger colleagues while learning from them too.
• You approach data with curiosity and humility, not just compliance.
• You possess a valid license from an appropriate regulatory body in Kenya.
• A valid Kenya driver’s license (manual and automatic vehicles) is a plus.
