Profile of the Post
Pact Rwanda is seeking a technical program manager for the ACHIEVE project.

The role focuses on key populations, including children and adolescents living with HIV (C/ALHIV), pregnant and breastfeeding women (PBFW), HIV-exposed infants (HEI), and HIV-positive caregivers. The successful candidate will work closely with subawardees, government counterparts, and the Rwanda Network of People Living with HIV (RRP+) to ensure that all project activities are delivered to a high standard and in compliance with national policies and donor requirements.

- Provide Technical Leadership: Deliver technical assistance and supportive supervision to implementing partners and subawardees, ensuring alignment with PEPFAR guidelines and Rwanda’s national HIV strategy.

- Capacity Building: Coach and mentor subawardee teams to improve their technical and operational capacity in HIV program implementation.
- Data-Driven Management: Collaborate with the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) team to analyze data, identify gaps, and implement corrective measures to improve program outcomes.
- Coordination and Partnerships: Facilitate coordination with the Ministry of Health, Rwanda Biomedical Center (RBC), RRP+, and other implementing partners to ensure synergies in HIV programming.
- Learning and Adaptation: Lead periodic learning reviews and pause-and-reflect sessions to document lessons learned and integrate them into future programming.
- Representation: Represent the ACHIEVE project in technical working groups, stakeholder meetings, and donor briefings.
- Reporting: Contribute to project work plans and quarterly and annual reports, and prepare technical summaries for donors and partners.
- Sustainability Planning: Support efforts to transition HIV services for vulnerable children and families to local actors and government ownership.
