CHAI RWANDA

JOB DESCRIPTION

TITLE: Associate

Program: Sustainable Health Financing

Job Location: Kigali

Type: Full-Time

Start Date: Immediate

Overview:

The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health organization committed to saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in low-and middle-income countries, while strengthening the capabilities of governments and the private sector in those countries to create and sustain high-quality health systems that can succeed without our assistance. For more information, please visit: http://www.clintonhealthaccess.org




Program Overview:

The Government of Rwanda strives to achieve Universal Health Coverage (UHC) by enabling equitable access to quality health services for their population as outlined in the Fourth Health Sector Strategic Plan (HSSP IV). This commitment is made against a backdrop of rising health care costs and uncertainty around the future availability of donor funding. While Rwanda is often cited as an example for UHC in Sub-Saharan Africa, in part due to high rates of enrollment in the community-based health insurance (CBHI) scheme; the challenge will be to sustain these gains. Acknowledging this, the Government aims to employ effective, equitable, efficient, and sustainable health care financing approaches and inform reforms of existing financing mechanisms including the national insurance scheme.

CHAI Rwanda’s Sustainable Health Financing (SHF) program works on a day-to-day basis with Government leadership in the Ministry of Health (MoH) and Rwanda Social Security Board (RSSB). The goal of our program is to support the Government to sustainably finance health and improve access and quality of health services for all Rwandans and address key challenges in the health sector, towards the goal of UHC. This includes defining priority services for the population; mobilizing and pooling resources for health; and improving the way those resources are spent to improve quality of care while controlling costs.




Position Overview:

CHAI Rwanda is seeking an Associate, Sustainable Health Financing and will be seconded to MoH and will work closely with CHAI Rwanda team to support strategic direction to the growth of the SHF program in Rwanda. The Associate will focus support on improving primary health care, including essential public health functions, which is the most cost-effective way to save lives. Interventions at health centers and in communities can address an estimated 77 percent of maternal, newborn and child deaths and stillbirths, reduce inequities in health outcomes, and prevent people from being pushed into poverty from health spending. The systems created for PHC increase resiliency to disease outbreaks such as COVID-19. They also create a foundation that can be used to progressively expand service coverage from primary health care toward universal health coverage. In Rwanda, PHC is implemented through district health units that works as autonomous planning and implementation units for health facilities at the district, sector and cell levels and Community Health Workers.

CHAI is supporting the Rwanda Ministry of Health (MoH) to improve PHC as an effective engine for accelerating progress towards UHC. The objective of this work is to enhance and accelerate progress towards the HSSP IV targets and UHC. The assignment will also include support to various health financing reforms and operational improvement initiatives, including a provider payment reform for PHC and the revision of the CBHI benefit health package.

CHAI is seeking a highly motivated, entrepreneurial individual with outstanding planning, health financing, management, analytical and communication skills to serve as an Associate for the Sustainable Health Financing team. The Associate must be fluent in English and have excellent relationship building and communication skills. He or she must be able to function independently with minimal oversight and have a strong commitment to excellence with a keen eye for detail. CHAI places great value on resourcefulness, responsibility, tenacity, flexibility, independence, energy, work ethic and humility.




Responsibilities:

The Associate will report to the Sustainable Health Financing Program and his or her responsibility will include, but are not limited to the following:

  1. Work closely with MoH and across a range of relevant government institutions to identify key areas that require upgrades and improvements in primary health care, to develop a comprehensive long-term costed plan for driving these investments in and improving PHC, aligned with the vision and priorities of the Government of Rwanda. This will include a credible financing plan for how investments in the health system can be maximized and how external investments in systems can be sustained over time and support the implementation of the plan.
  2. Engage with high-level government officials in the Ministry of Health to facilitate alignment on key priorities for accelerating progress on the current health sector strategic plan. This will require activities including:
    1. Assessment of current health sector policies, strategies, and plans to determine initiatives, interventions and activities that are planned, in the pipeline, being implemented or can be effectively and efficiently delivered at the PHC level
    2. Leveraging existing literature and available data to determine established targets, the status of progress towards targets and gaps across the health systems as related to PHC.

  4. Map available resources against costs, including external and domestic funds projections, highlighting funding gaps. This will leverage existing information.
  5. Develop a robust financing plan and facilitate stakeholder validation of plan, including the role for existing external financing to be re-aligned with this plan, for new external financing, and for increased domestic financing over time.
  6. Support the government leadership in the design and implementation of health financing strategies, interventions, and reforms, including provider payment reforms for primary health care, priority setting and benefits package design, financial management, strengthening of donor coordination to support domestic resource mobilization and a sustainable transition towards greater self-reliance. This will include analytical work and engaging MoH team and other stakeholders, the development of literature reviews, concept notes, excel tools, quantitative and qualitative analyses

Rwanda Tree Lead at One Acre Fund:Deadline: 20-11-2022

About One Acre Fund

Founded in 2006, One Acre Fund supplies 1 million smallholder farmers with the agricultural services they need to make their farms vastly more productive. Our 8,000+ team is drawn from diverse backgrounds and professions. With operations across six core countries in Africa, we make farmers more prosperous by providing quality farm supplies on credit, delivered within walking distance of farmers’ homes, and agricultural training to improve harvests. On average, the farmers we serve harvest 50 per cent more food after working with One Acre Fund.

To learn more about our work, take a look at our Why Work Here blog for information.




About the Role

We’ve set ourselves a bold target to plant 1 billion trees in the next 8 years. We need you to help us achieve it.

In Rwanda alone, we have planted over 50M trees in the last 4 years, and our tree program distributes over 20 million trees, to over 1 million farmers annually. We do this through the hybrid production model (producing tree seedlings from 6 central nurseries and over 1,000 decentralized nurseries) and a distribution model that uses our partnership with the Rwandan government’s extension network, Twigire Muhinzi.

Yet despite these major successes we have a lot more to do to reach our potential: a) scale the program beyond 20 million trees per year b) increase impact per farmer by improving the tree products we offer, performance (e.g. survival), diversification, intensification, and market access c) increase program sustainability by finding ways to generate an income (e.g. accessing financing opportunities, such as the carbon credit market, or monetizing portions of our work), or improve efficiency

  • We are looking for an experienced program manager to lead our growing tree department
  • You will oversee our priority projects that can dramatically improve the tree program impact, scale and efficiency outcomes over the next 3-5 years.
  • You will lead a team of 50 + staff and support them to achieve the organization’s objectives
  • You will report directly to the Extension Lead





Responsibilities

This is an exciting opportunity to lead a growing department that inspires some of the largest impacts in the organization. The department lead will:

1) Coach leaders: Oversee our yearly tree campaign. You will primarily support and empower leaders to run our tree campaign independently and come up with their own strategy

2) Prioritize collaboratively building longer-term strategies: so that a) the decisions we make today, support our strategic priorities tomorrow b) team leads can develop shorter-term strategies c) the tree program supports wider organizational goals (e.g. commercialization)

3) Strategic innovations: build and oversee a culture where major and minor innovations are identified, tested and scaled, and ensure they are contributing to wider organizational priorities. Our current priorities include:

  • Find “right size” tree packages,
  • Maximize tree survival,
  • Maximize planting on consolidated land,
  • Use our grower network to create more impact and business opportunities,
  • Test carbon credit opportunities, and run field trials to recommend promising ones to grow
  • Evaluate the opportunities to increase the value of timber in Rwanda

4) Guide our organization’s initiative to collaborate with actors in the sector to improve Rwanda’s tree system: Lead on strategic partner management and system change analysis, to deliver system-wide impacts

Career Growth and Development

We have a strong culture of constant learning and we invest in developing our people. You’ll have weekly check-ins with your manager, access to mentorship and training programs, and regular feedback on your performance. We hold career reviews every six months and set aside time to discuss your aspirations and career goals. You’ll have the opportunity to shape a growing organization and build a rewarding long-term career.




Qualifications

Across all roles, these are the general qualifications we look for. For this role specifically, you will have:

  • 3+ years experience leading and growing team
  • 2+ years in program management, preferably experience in agriculture extension, scaling and expanding programs, with an emphasis on systems building and innovations
  • You are comfortable with engaging high-level partners
  • Previous background in Agroforestry or related field preferred but is not strictly required
  • Fluency in English is required

Preferred Start Date

As soon as possible

Job Location

Based in Kigali with frequent travel to districts of operations

Benefits

Health insurance, housing, and comprehensive benefits

Eligibility

This role is only open to citizens or permanent residents of Rwanda
