We are recruiting to fill the position below:

Job Title: Zonal Coordinator

Requisition: 2018201151
Location: Ogun

Project Summary
  • Alive & Thrive is an initiative to save lives, prevent illness, and ensure healthy growth and development through improved breastfeeding and complementary feeding practices.
  • Alive & Thrive is funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the governments of Canada and Ireland.
  • To maximize the impact of BMGF investments in nutrition in Nigeria, A&T added a fourth objective to its plan in November 2017, that is: to strengthen government capacity and non-governmental partnerships at national level for improving breastfeeding policies, programs and practices.
  • This national replication component that goes beyond A&T’s first 2 states of Kaduna and Lagos, aims to reach policy influencers and families with young children in multiple high population states to strengthen the enabling environment for mothers to adopt early initiation and exclusive breastfeeding.
Basic Function
  • The State Focal Person oversees the accelerated scale up of A&T activities in 2 or 3 states. H/She is responsible for program planning, implementation, monitoring, and reporting of the interventions implemented by A&T and its partners in the assigned state(s). 
  • H/She is accountable for judicious use of all resources entrusted with A&T and its partners in the assigned state(s).
Program Summary
  • The Nigeria A&T IYCF social and behavior change program focuses on improving rates of early initiation of breastfeeding, exclusive breastfeeding, timely introduction of complementary feeding, and minimum dietary diversity for infants over 6 months old. A&T will work across the public, commercial/private, and NGO sectors to improve IYCF through A&T’s four components: advocacy, interpersonal communication and community mobilization, mass communication, and strategic use of data.  At the national level, A&T will predominantly work with its public, private/commercial, and NGO sector partners (Scaling Up Nutrition and other national IYCF initiatives) to improve the implementation, monitoring, and enforcement of key IYCF policies (Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes; maternity leave; work place support; breastfeeding-friendly health care and delivery facilities). A&T will also work in twelve states through identified national associations to apply the four components to reach households, communities, and facilities with targeted, age-appropriate social and behavior change communication (SBCC) messaging on IYCF practices.
  • At both the national level and in the states, while the emphasis will be to build the capacity of the public sector to improve IYCF practices, the involvement and resources from the private and commercial sectors will be pursued to advance IYCF policies, expand the promotion of positive social norms, and extend timed and age-appropriate behavior change messaging through private and commercial facilities to households and communities.
Duties and Responsibilities
  • Participate in development of and monitors work plans and budgets; ensures appropriate levels of technical assistance in program operations; coordinates partner efforts in program implementation; ensures appropriate program monitoring and accurate financial and programmatic reporting to the Country Office.
  • Work with identified state partners on IYCF integration and scale up activities within the state

  • With the assistance of the A&T M&E specialist, monitor all intervention strategies to ensure that they meet contractual, financial and programmatic goals.

  • Coordinate all capacity building activities for A&T partners at the state level.
  • Review periodic reports (programmatic and financial) submitted by all collaborating partners at the state office level and forward same to the country office.
  • Undertake regular monitoring visits to project sites and partners as necessary.
