Description
ABOUT THE PROGRAMME
Horizon 1000 is a transformative initiative to deploy contextually grounded, ethically designed artificial intelligence (AI) solutions across primary healthcare systems in Kenya. Amref Health Africa will lead a three-county proof of concept in Murang’a, Mombasa and Bungoma, working alongside an AI design partner, a technology partner, a clinical learning partner and an implementation science partner. The project sits at the intersection of digital health innovation, primary healthcare strengthening and implementation science. Its defining legacy will be a practical, replicable deployment playbook that equips future implementers to deploy AI in Kenya’s primary healthcare system with confidence, fidelity and speed.
JOB PURPOSE
The Project Manager will coordinate the day-to-day implementation of the Horizon 1000 Kenya project under the guidance of the Director, Impact & Innovation. The role will support delivery coordination, partner and sub-grantee follow-up, external stakeholder engagement and consistent application of the project’s values throughout implementation.
The role requires strong project management, health systems knowledge and digital health fluency, together with a commitment to co-design and community-centred approaches. The Project Manager will support engagement across the government and regulatory landscape, coordinate partner inputs, and contribute to the systematic capture of implementation learning for the national AI deployment playbook and scaling framework.
