The ESP is a five year programme which is coordinated by the Social Protection Secretariat within the MGLSD and includes a pilot cash transfer scheme, the Social Assistance Grants for Empowerment (SAGE) Programme. SAGE will provide regular cash transfers to vulnerable families living in chronic poverty. SAGE will work initially in fourteen districts, reaching 15% of households in target districts, with the aim of subsequent national scale-up.
Maxwell Stamp PLC has been providing technical support to MGLSD to implement the ESPP. Maxwell Stamp PLC is now seeking to fill five key positions in the Social Protection Programme at district level;

The successful candidates will work in partnership with the respective district authorities to support the monitoring and evaluation of the SAGE cash transfer scheme. Post holders will be responsible for programme quality assurance at local level feeding data back to programme management. In addition, post holders will support local government authorities to generate lessons from the programme which will inform national policy processes. Regular and extensive travel throughout the pilot districts will therefore be required.
