Navanti has a requirement for a Senior Operations / Human Resources (HR) Manager to support the Nigeria Third Party Monitoring Project (NTPMP), which assists USAID/Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA)/Nigeria by providing independent, verifiable data on the outputs and quality of its humanitarian assistance activities. Due to the non-permissive environment, where USAID/BHA/Nigeria staff cannot visit activity sites, the NTPMP ensures oversight and accountability of implementing partners, mitigates risks, and improves the delivery of goods and services.

Navanti’s NTPMP team will assist USAID/BHA in monitoring performance, contextual factors, and other relevant data to inform program accountability, oversight, and adaptive management. The project is critical in helping USAID/BHA/Nigeria mitigate risks and improve program design and delivery in one of the most challenging environments in the world.
