Regional Public Health Advisor   Based in Freetown, Sierra Leone with extensive travel throughout the region 2 year fixed term contract Salary: £21,990- £ 28,821 net per annum Closing date: 6 April 2010   West Africa is experiencing a deepening cycle of chronic poverty, whose roots lie in a number of complex issues. In many ways, West Africa's crisis is a crisis of decreasing livelihoods options and decreasing food security. Other issues also play their part, including cyclical drought, floods and disease outbreaks, which further undermine people's capacity.

Public health has a major role to play in addressing issues of food security, livelihoods and emergencies. To date Oxfam in West Africa has had a moderately sized public health programme in the region. However we now have an opportunity to increase the scale of our public health work, and more importantly to increase the impact of the programme, by ensuring that it is structured to most appropriately respond to the real underlying problems and to ensure that it integrates more effectively with other existing programmes.

Oxfam's Public Health work in West Africa also includes using water for livelihoods - including water harvesting and appropriate irrigation. We also aim to build on approaches to public health that can lead to risk reduction in regard to potential emergencies in the region. 

Oxfam in West Africa is seeking to have a much more significant impact in the region through its Public Health Work. This is an opportunity to lead on the process of change required to help Oxfam achieve this aspiration.

They will drive and support benefits tracking and realisation from the ILPPM programme. They will provide input and support to OGB's representatives working directly with the Helios Foundation and third-party software support organisations. They will support and promote data quality and maintenance pertinent to ILPPM, in particular the objective of ILPPM to maintain a global master of items used by OGB's International programmes. The Process Lead will be the primary subject matter expert in the Helios system and Activity Planning Tool, with an intimate understanding of the processes and integration points relating to this scope of Oxfam's international supply chain operations. The main purposes of this position are to support best practice and functional support working directly with Focal Points in international offices and liaising directly with functions in Oxfam House that own strategic development of their business functions (International Finance team, Supply & Logisitcs team, Humanitarian Dept, etc). In addition, the Process Lead will take on a role in direct support of Focal Points, addressing functional and process issues not appropriate for either the Data Lead or IS Helpdesk. Working as a link between the Focal Points and third-party Maintenance Team, the Process Lead will therefore operate as effective 'second line support' for functional and process issues.

He/she will propose potential improvements, working to capture actual business requirements and working with the Team Lead to act strategically with business owners for other related systems and through Oxfam GB's representatives on the Helios Foundation to achieve this.

This will again require liaison with relevant parties in the IS department and with business owners of related and integrated functions. The Process Lead will play a key role in continuing to measure and analyse business benefits of the ILPPM programme, maintaining metrics, performing critical analysis and proactively working with international offices and business functions within Oxfam GB to maximise the benefits achieved through the ILPPM Programme.

It will be important to maintain such efforts proactively (e.g. periodic checks and updates) as well as reactively (e.g. answering queries). The Data Lead will also need to develop tools and processes to assist in this data maintenance and enable data quality improvement efforts to be shared with others, working in support of colleagues in the Supply & Logistics function, the Humanitarian Department and the Bicester warehouse to establish functionally optimal results. The Data Lead will be the primary technical expert in the Helios and APT (Activity Planning Tool) data models, able to extract and manipulate the data in these systems for analytical problem solving and assessment, utilizing appropriate technologies such as Microsoft Access, Excel and SQL Server. The Data Lead will also therefore act as the primary SME for the assessment of any impact on the data model from any proposed development for these systems, including future development. This will entail acceptance testing specific developments or new tools. This specifically includes the full scope of Helios and Activity Planning, including functional integration with other systems such as Peoplesoft General Ledger and OPAL.   REPORTING LINES: Postholder reports to: ILPPM Central Support Team Lead.
