JOB DETAILS:

As M&E Officer – MNCHIN, you’ll play a key role in ensuring data is not only collected — but used to inform action, improve systems, and demonstrate results. You will work closely with project teams, county and subcounty HRIOs, and health facility stakeholders to strengthen monitoring frameworks, build data capacity, and ensure timely, high-quality reporting.

Equally important, you’ll provide day-to-day mentorship and oversight to other staff, helping nurture the next generation of public health professionals. This role is ideal for someone who combines technical depth with emotional intelligence and a future-leaning mindset.

Responsibilities

Monitoring and Reporting

• Lead implementation of M&E plans for MNCHIN projects, ensuring alignment with donor and government priorities.
• Oversee timely collection, validation, analysis, and reporting of program data — from routine and non-routine indicators.
• Support county, subcounty, and health facility teams to strengthen data quality and use for decision-making.
• Develop/adapt M&E tools, dashboards, SOPs, and reporting templates that are both functional and user-friendly.
• Collaborate with program teams to track progress, analyze trends, and generate reports and adaptation plans.

Learning and Systems Strengthening

• Contribute to adaptive learning agendas, including after-action reviews, reflection sessions, and performance improvement plans.
• Engage in development of knowledge products (briefs, presentations, visuals) for internal and external dissemination.
• Represent Jhpiego in technical working groups, county-level reviews, and other coordination platforms.

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.
