**The Opportunity**

Abt Associates seeks a Technical Director for the upcoming USAID-funded Maternal Newborn Health (MNH) Flagship Activity in Indonesia. This Activity will draw upon valuable insights gained from existing Government of Indonesia (GOI) programs and past USAID initiatives. It aims to enhance and expand successful strategies at both provincial and national levels, taking advantage of the recent lending program by Multilateral Development Banks for acquiring and installing necessary equipment. Moreover, the Activity will proactively evaluate emerging challenges to maternal and newborn health outcomes to refine practices. It will integrate considerations of climate and gender. The implementation will prioritize the delivery of technical assistance at the province and district levels, with the aim of bolstering the expansion of effective approaches and interventions to a province-wide scale.

This effort will concentrate on achieving three primary objectives:
Objective 1) Strengthening the supply of quality maternal and newborn health services, 2) Improving the demand for quality services through social behavior change communication and accountability mechanisms, and 3) Fostering innovations and building the evidence base to inform national and sub-national policy reforms which will establish institutional quality standards.

The Technical Director will work with the Chief of Party on the design, roll-out, and day-to-day management and implementation of interventions. The Technical Director provides management oversight for technical staff and overall technical guidance for the project. He or she will report to the project’s Chief of Party.

**This position is contingent upon a successful contract award to Abt Global.**

**Core Responsibilities**
- Work closely with other members of the senior management team to ensure a cohesive and integrated approach across all project activities.
- Work with staff to identify and define TA needs of local Indonesian organizations and government counterparts in implementation of innovations designed to reduce Maternal and Neonatal morbidity and mortality.
