The Kaizen Company is seeking applications for a Construction Management Officer position under a USAID-funded activity in Jordan. The Enhancing School Management and Planning (ESMP) Project objective is to develop sustainable system and process improvements related to school planning, design, construction, and maintenance and enhance the staff capabilities within Jordan’s Ministries of Education (MOE) and Public Works and Housing (MPWH) to improve the school management and planning process, and the quality of school environments in Jordan.
The scope of this project is to provide assessment expertise, technical assistance, capacity building, collaboration, facilitation, and training to targeted stakeholders and counterparts to improve existing management systems and procedures used by the Government of Jordan (GoJ) in the education sector, improve performance and sustain these improvements.
Purpose of Assignment
Public Schools in Jordan are now in constant need of repair and refurbishment, and effective programs to ensure the upkeep of school facilities are proactively taken care of are ongoing. Currently, many schools in the Kingdom fail to provide a well-maintained and safe physical environment that fosters the student’s ability to learn, highlighting the need for safe and well-resourced schools for teachers to instruct effectively and for students to be receptive. The Ministry of Education (MoE) is developing a maintenance system for schools to lessen the challenges to its infrastructure.
To improve the overall Facility Management process and procedures of public schools in Jordan, Kaizen is seeking to hire a Maintenance Officer to assist in its efforts towards adopting improved facility maintenance processes and procedures.
Scope of Assignment
The Maintenance Officer will assist the Maintenance technical lead with ESMP technical interventions for Facility maintenance, including the Physical Assessment survey for MoE schools in the kingdom. They will also help manage the Operation and Maintenance consultancy to recommend a maintenance framework. The candidate should have knowledge of school infrastructure design in Jordan and the ability to transfer knowledge to government officials through manuals, training, and coaching.
