Navanti has a requirement for a 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.

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.
Core Responsibilities:
- Implement and manage the recruitment and onboarding of qualified consultants to support NTPMP activities from both the Abuja and Maidugiri offices.
