Context:

Over the past years, Nigeria has considerably expanded the availability of vaccination services for infants. Despite this progress on the supply side, demand for vaccinations remains relatively low. New Incentives encourage mothers to fully vaccinate their infants with cash transfers and thereby ensures their babies are protected against deadly diseases. The cash transfers allow the mothers to afford transport to the clinic and compensate them for lost income.

Key Duties:

• Enrolling beneficiaries at remote public clinics


• Monitor immunization services at your clinic


• Interact with clinic staff and beneficiaries


• Conduct high-quality rapid assessment


• Assist with other duties related to the program

Please note that this is a hands-on job for hard-working, dedicated young candidates.

Required Qualifications:

• Fluency in local languages/dialects spoken in Bauchi, especially Hausa. Please state the names of the languages/dialects you can speak and your fluency level for each language in your cover letter.


• Nigerian national already based in Bauchi State


• Minimum of National Diploma, ideally Bachelor degree, preferably in the field of health or other natural sciences


• Willingness to work at remote public clinics a few days per week and take public transport to reach them


• Experience with the Nigerian health system and clinic documentation, particularly related to infant health and vaccinations


• Experience in collecting, synthesizing, and drawing conclusions from (health) data is desirable


• Careful attention to financial matters and management of funds


• Detail-oriented, diligent professional


• Passion to help others and reduce infant mortality


• Very good communications and writing skills, English, Hausa, and dialects (verbal and written)


• Excellent responsiveness to email and phone requests


• Proficiency in Microsoft Word/Excel, internet browsers, smartphones, and new communications technology in general


• Hard-working, result-oriented and loyal


• Motivation to work in a young organization that is constantly changing based on stakeholder feedback and operates with a lean structure
