Jhpiego is seeking three Cluster Facilitators to provide hands-on clinical mentoring and supportive supervision across 237 project-supported health facilities, including Basic Health Care Provision Fund primary healthcare facilities and general hospitals. Each facilitator supports facilities within one assigned emirate to improve postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) prevention, early detection, treatment and referral.

• Support adherence to approved PPH guidelines, SOPs and job aids, including active management of the third stage of labour, calibrated drape, appropriate uterotonic, tranexamic acid and timely escalation of care.
• Assess provider skills, identify gaps and agree practical improvements; prioritise facilities with persistent service gaps.
• Identify newly recruited or transferred maternity staff and notify the project team so they can be onboarded, trained and mentored.
