Description
Background
BOMA is recognized for developing an innovative, gender-focused poverty graduation model for the extreme-poor women in the ASALs, the Rural Entrepreneur Access Project (REAP). This long-term program offers a highly sequenced, layered and timebound set of interventions to support vulnerable households to develop financial literacy, establish and grow businesses, build savings, strengthen social capital, increase household income and develop resilience to shocks.
Where BOMA finds the high levels of chronic malnutrition, nutrition sensitive interventions are layered onto the REAP Model through REAP for Nutrition, addressing the drivers of food insecurity and persistent and acute malnutrition.
The SOIL program applies this approach in Marsabit County, focusing on entrepreneurship for food security, nutrition and child well-being, at the nexus of nutrition, natural resource management, regenerative resilience design and climate change. SOIL Cohort II builds on lessons from cohort 1 implementation and places greater emphasis on enterprise growth and diversification, access to markets and financial services, private sector engagement, household food security, practical nutrition interventions, regenerative designs, locally appropriate livelihoods opportunities and sustainable community capacity.
Role Description
BOMA is seeking qualified and experienced Mentors to deliver day-to-day implementation of the SOIL Program in Marsabit County. This is a field-based role whereby the mentor is responsible for program delivery by providing participants with monthly coaching, mentorship, facilitation, training, linkages to markets and follow-up activities to ensure the effective and quality implementation of the SOIL program towards the achievement of nutrition, livelihoods, entrepreneurship, savings, resilience, and child well-being outcomes. The mentor must be a member of the community/villages where the project is being implemented with clear understanding of the community culture, language and geographical coverage. The mentor will serve as a frontline link between BOMA and participating households and community structures.
Reporting to the Field Officer, the Mentor will take lead in participant mobilization, targeting and enrolment, VSLA group formation and strengthening, capacity building, business coaching, monitoring progress of interventions and data collection. He/she will ensure smooth collaboration with key stakeholder in the community including the government structures relevant for the program deliver outcomes. The mentor delivers the expected roles with adherence to BOMA’s program quality, policies, safeguarding, and accountability standards.
