Job Title:\u00a0Chief of Party, Water4More Initiative<\/strong><\/p>\n

PURPOSE OF POSITION:<\/strong><\/p>\n

World Vision partners with Water4 to implement a 20 million Water Initiative called Water4More initiative in Ghana, Mali, Niger, in West Africa and Ethiopia in East Africa. The project will work within World Vision operating zones. This initiative builds on changes in approach at World Vision, within the WASH sector, by increasing engagement with local private sector combined with capacity building for water service providers. These water service providers will be trained to drill wells, using low cost techniques, and to manage and provide service delivery for communities. As part of this paradigm shift, users will increasingly be responsible for paying for O&M, and Capital Maintenance and upgrading costs through water delivery service fees.<\/p>\n

Water4More initiative seeks a Chief of Party (COP) for the anticipated two-year, $2-million, World Vision and Water4-funded initiative. This initiative will work with the government department in charge of water and agriculture for policy compliance and will have direct working relationship with World Vision National Offices in targeted countries.<\/p>\n

Under the joint supervision of the WV WAR & EAR SDOs and Water 4 COO, the COP will work collaboratively with Access Development Managers and World Vision WASH Managers to implement the initiative targeting 7,000 manually drilled wells serving 1million people in 6 countries. This will include low cost drilling and equipping wells, ensuring the functionality and sustainability of water facilities, the management of the ROC centers, and building the relationships with actors in water and agriculture sectors, conducting comprehensive monitoring and evaluation of the initiative, and developing the capacity of the private sector in the management of water points.<\/p>\n

As part of the Water4 More initiative there will be a component, Water4Productive Use that will provide water for economic activities. Under this component the clients will be responsible for the investment and ongoing O&M costs of these water points, used for productive purposes which may include: irrigated horticulture, orchards and livestock.<\/p>\n
