USAID Programme‘Scale-Up of Care and Support Services for Orphans and Vulnerable Children in Selected States in Nigeria’

A country of vast human and natural resources, Nigeria has influence over the political, social and cultural agenda throughout Africa. Yet it has a history of political instability, religious and ethnic conflict, corruption and mismanagement which have left the majority of its population still living in poverty.

At least you must have a positive outlook about contributing to change here. Nigerian candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.

The ideal candidate must possess a Master’s degree in social sciences, public health or a related field; and must have at least ten years experience in public health, including at least four of these in multi-sectoral care and support for OVC and/or people living with HIV/AIDS. You will need a demonstrated ability to manage a complex programme, working collaboratively across technical disciplines; solid knowledge and understanding of current good practices in OVC programming; proven expertise in developing and implementing effective partnerships with private sector entities and proven experience in designing, implementing and monitoring capacity strengthening approaches for government and civil society partners.
