Who we are
D-tree
International is a global digital health organization dedicated to
ensuring that everyone has access to high-quality primary healthcare in
underserved areas. We do this by working with governments to design,

their ability to deliver high-quality, evidence-based care.
D-tree
engages with governments to develop a shared vision for the potential
of digital health, demonstrates the effectiveness of digital systems to
improve health outcomes, and accompanies governments to scale these
digital systems nationally and institutionalize them within their
broader health systems.

Since 2011, D-tree has partnered with the Zanzibar Ministry of Health
to implement an innovative digital health program, Jamii ni Afya
(“Community is health”) supporting Community Health Volunteers to
provide health services within their communities. This program has
consistently demonstrated improved health outcomes, a strengthened
community health system, and increased use of data for decision-making.
Over time, Jamii ni Afya has grown from a pilot to a national program
and has demonstrated how digital technology can transform the quality of
a health system. The Zanzibar government has committed to adopt Jamii
ni Afya at national scale; integrating digitally-enabled Community
Health Volunteers into their formal Community Health Strategy. This
represents the world’s first nationally scaled digital community health
program, bringing high quality health services to the doorsteps of all
of Zanzibar. The digital health program reached full scale in August
2021, allowing D-tree to focus on program sustainability, quality and
impact.

Who you are
We are recruiting for a highly
skilled and experienced Program Grants Manager to work as an integral
part of our Zanzibar team. You have excellent attention to detail and
the ability to be accountable for driving compliance, budgets, work
plans and reporting for multiple donor projects, and ensure the team is
meeting project timelines and deliverables within budget. You have prior
experience in a similar project management role and can demonstrate
