Job Title: Quality Improvement (QI) / Community Facilitator (Temp)

Category: International Positions

Employment Status: Temporary

Overview

Jhpiego seeks two dedicated Quality Improvement (QI) / Community Facilitators to strengthen coordination and implementation of facility- and community-level QI activities across 24 AMPLI supported sites in Ondo and Kebbi States.

• Each facility has an established QI team with focal persons already trained on integrated QI processes addressing postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and non-PPH related projects. 
• However, recent assessments reveal gaps in report submission, meeting coordination, and standardization of QI processes.

The QI/Community Facilitator will provide handson support to facility-level QI teams and community-based organizations (CBOs) by ensuring consistent implementation of QI methodologies, robust data-driven reviews, and improved documentation of lessons learned, maternal death reviews, and adverse event reporting.

• The facilitator will also strengthen linkages between facilities, LGAs, Ward Development Committees (WDCs), and community governance systems, thereby reducing maternal mortality through improved quality of care and accountability mechanisms.

Responsibilities

Quality Improvement Support:

Provide technical assistance to facility QI focal persons and teams to ensure monthly meetings are held, minutes recorded, and QI reports submitted using standardize templates.

• Strengthen QI processes such as PDSA cycles, run charts, and dashboard monitoring to track progress on MNCH outcomes.
• Support QI teams to function as facility-level MPDSR committees, reviewing maternal deaths, adverse outcomes, and adverse drug reactions (ADRs) related to PPH commodities (TXA, HSC, calibrated drape).

Facilitate cross exchange learning and supervision support among facilities by documenting and disseminating success stories, QI case studies, and lessons learned.

Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing, Midwifery, Public Health, Health Education, Social work or a related health field.

Minimum of 3–5 years’ experience in QI, maternal and newborn health programming (particularly PPH prevention and treatment), or community health system strengthening.

• Strong technical knowledge of QI methodologies (PDSA cycle, run charts, performance measurement, dashboards).
• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and data visualization tools.
• Demonstrated ability to document success stories, case studies, and produce reports for diverse audiences.
• Experience working with CBOs, LGAs, and WDC structures in Nigeria.

Strong interpersonal and facilitation skills, with proven ability to work collaboratively with facility teams, community stakeholders, and government officials.

Key Skills and Attributes:

Demonstrated ability to meet deadlines while remaining responsible, reliable, and accountable.

Proven capacity to work effectively under pressure, with resilience and adaptability in challenging field environments.

• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel, data analysis, and professional report writing.
• Strong facilitation skills for providing one-on-one coaching and group-based support at facility and community levels.
• Keen attention to detail with the ability to identify and address even the smallest data or process gaps.
