Chemonics Market Description Consultant Jobs in Kenya

Chemonics seeks a market description consultant for the Frontier Health Markets Engage (FHM Engage) program in Kenya. FHM Engage is a global cooperative agreement to provide technical assistance (TA,) supporting local actors to improve the ability of health markets to meet supply-side capacity gaps and consumer preferences, contributing to equitable provision of and access to high-quality family planning (FP) and other health services and products in mixed health systems.

Building on over 30 years of USAID investment, FHM Engage focuses on strengthening local health markets by addressing the root causes of market failures in the core market functions to create the necessary behavior change that catalyzes supply and demand and supports sustainable change. In line with this approach, FHM Engage seeks achievement towards two main Results:

Result 1: Improved market environment for greater private sector participation in the delivery of health products and services.

Result 2: Improved equal access to and uptake of high-quality consumer driven health products, services, and information.

The starting point for all FHM Engage’s work is a robust description of the health markets. These health markets descriptions set the foundation for our understanding of the underperformance of the market.

The health markets descriptions support discussions with key market actors to diagnose the root causes of underperformance and how the private sector might be engaged to support improved health outcomes.
