Background
The Violence Prevention and Response Unit (VPRU) is one of IRC's four Technical Units, bringing together Child Protection, Women's Protection and Empowerment, and Protection Rule of Law across over 35 countries.

IRC's Technical Excellence teams offer five core services to IRC country programs: Program Design, Quality Assurance, Business Development, Research and Learning, and External Influence.

Job Overview
The WPE field is at a strategic inflection point. The humanitarian system is contracting, siloed sectoral programming by default is under scrutiny, and the organizations that will define the next decade of protection practice are those that can ground a social work systems approach in feminist practice, building connective tissue with child protection, rule of law, and case management bridge prevention and response as two expressions of a single protective logic , and take seriously the financing of services for those most at risk of violence as a structural condition of impact rather than a donor-cycle variable.

Strong track record of driving uptake of evidence-based practice.

Demonstrated experience in sectoral strategy design and planning; experience with policy and advocacy efforts and campaigns for change.

General leadership and management

Ability to shape the transformative vision and agenda, complemented with excellent and an ability to identify and convert business development opportunities and the necessary communication, influencing, and storytelling skills to turn this vision into action ;

Demonstrated capacity to lead, grow and sustain high performing teams, including through transition

Demonstrated for self and staff; to influence across a wide range of diverse stakeholders; and to within the domain area.

Demonstrated comfort engaging non-transactionally across donors, civil society, social justice movements, financing organizations, and academic communities: building and sustaining relationships as a basis for influence and trust over time.

An understanding of innovation that transcends technology, behavior change and comfort with disruptive thinking

Fluency in English required. Arabic, French, and/or Spanish welcome. Fluency in Farsi, Urdu, Swahili, Bambara, or other languages dominant in IRC's programming footprint is celebrated as a form of professional capital: speakers of these languages bring proximity to the realities of the women and girls we serve that expands technical expertise .

PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Uganda has made significant progress in reducing maternal and neonatal mortality since 2016, with maternal mortality declining by 44% from 338 to 189 deaths per 100,000 live births and neonatal mortality by 18.5% from 27 to 22 deaths per 1,000 live births. However, mortality remains unacceptably high, driven by causes such as birth asphyxia, prematurity, and maternal haemorrhage, with many deaths resulting from delays in recognizing danger signs, seeking care, reaching capable facilities, and receiving timely treatment. Strengthening emergency referral systems is therefore critical and requires functional communication and transport linkages, improved triage and referral protocols, and timely, safe transfer of women and newborns requiring emergency care. CHAI Uganda’s Sexual, Reproductive, Maternal and Newborn Health (SRMNH) Program partners with the Ministry of Health to reduce maternal and neonatal mortality by expanding access to priority family planning, maternal and newborn health products and services, while strengthening emergency referral pathways at community, health facility, and district levels.

POSITION OVERVIEW

Reporting to the Senior Associate – Emergency Referral Systems, the Associate will support the implementation and monitoring of activities to strengthen emergency referral systems for mothers and newborns in Uganda. He/she will assist in conducting field-level assessments, collecting and analysing data, supporting health facility and district engagement, and contributing to the development of referral tools, training materials, and knowledge products.

The Associate will work closely with the Senior Associate, Ministry of Health counterparts, district health teams, and health facilities to help ensure that women and newborns experiencing obstetric and neonatal emergencies receive timely, appropriate care. CHAI is seeking a motivated, detail-oriented, and mission-driven individual with a foundational understanding of health systems and a commitment to reducing preventable maternal and neonatal mortality in Uganda.

Qualifications
Education
Bachelor’s degree in public health, nursing, medicine, health sciences, social sciences, or a related field.
Experience

At least 3 years of working experience in a demanding, results-driven environment, preferably in public health, health systems strengthening, or a related field.

Demonstrated experience supporting complex projects involving multiple teams or stakeholders, including planning, coordination, and reporting.

Skills

Strong analytical skills with the ability to collect, compile, and present data clearly.

Excellent communication (written and verbal) and presentation skills.

High emotional intelligence, patience, and thoughtfulness even in high-pressure, stressful situations.

Strong process management skills, high level of organisation, and good attention to detail.

Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office suite – Excel, PowerPoint, and Word.

A flexible, entrepreneurial, and output-focused mindset, with strong self-motivation.

Ability to function independently and manage multiple tasks under tight deadlines.
