Transform: Primary Health Care is a USAID funded project to improve healthcare outcomes to preventing Child and Maternal Deaths (EPCMD) in Ethiopia, which in turn support Government of Ethiopia’s efforts within the Health Sector Transformation Plan (HSTP). Transform: primary health care will operate in the four most populous regions of Ethiopia (Amhara, Oromia, Tigray and Southern Nations, Nationalities and People’s Region). This will be accomplished in part by: mitigating the drivers of child and maternal mortality in Ethiopia’s most populous regions through the facilitation and implementation of quality health service delivery; improved management and performance of health systems; and implementation of innovative and evidence-based social behavioral change and communication interventions. TRANSFORM/PHC will strengthen the capacity of the health system to effectively use management tools and implement best practices at all levels of the health system and health care delivery with a major focus at the primary care level that includes primary hospitals and PHCUs. Health System Strengthening (HSS) Officer is responsible for planning and implementing the comprehensive Leadership, Management and Governance improvement interventions at various levels across the community, facility, and public health system. The HSS Officer works under the supervision of the Regional Technical Coordinator (RTC) and in close collaboration with the Regional Team and central office level Health System strengthening team. S/he will be based in the Regional Project Office, with extensive travel within the Region.
