About MsingiTek: MsingiTek is a tablet-based program that provides supplementary learning for students in Standards 1, 2, and 3. By putting Imagine Worldwide’s tablets and onebillion’s software in children’s hands, the program provides a dedicated moment of individual learning, enabling students to strengthen foundational literacy and numeracy skills. MsingiTek contributes to children in Tanzania building the literacy and numeracy skills needed to achieve their full potential!
About TEDI: Tanzania Enlightenment Development Innovations (TEDI) is a youth-led non-profit organization committed to transforming education in Tanzania through digital innovation. By establishing computer labs, delivering skills training, and advocating for policy reforms. As a select implementing partner for the MsingiTek program in Tabora, we are proud to help empower Tanzania’s young learners to reach their full potential.
About You: You are passionate about making a lasting impact in communities, driven by the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to thrive. You excel at building relationships, inspiring action and ownership in others, and strengthening capacity through guidance and feedback. Thriving in dynamic environments, you tackle challenges with integrity and creativity, using real-time data to track progress, lead meaningful discussions, and drive continuous improvement.
Your Goals: As our MsingiTek Field Supervisor you will oversee from 5 to 10 schools, ensuring the long-term success of the program. You will maintain functional hardware, ensure sessions run smoothly and on time, and provide every learner with their intended weekly minutes of learning (“time on task”). Your work will build the ownership and capacity of headteachers and teachers to sustain and enhance the program, boosting learner attendance and enrollment. Success will be measured by maintaining or improving time on task, and functional equipment, as ownership transitions fully to the schools, ensuring lasting impact.
Your Responsibilities: This is a snapshot of your responsibilities – it is not exhaustive, and we encourage you to take ownership of your role in ways that drive program success.
- Equipment and Infrastructure: Ensure the installation and completion of hardware, software, infrastructure, and security improvements in all your schools by the program launch date.
- Teacher Training: Host sessions to onboard schools on the program and thereafter on a need basis to identify best practices for equipment and session management; foster ownership of practices to minimize breakage and maximize learning (time on task).
- Community Sensitization: Conduct initial and ongoing sensitization efforts to engage and educate the community about the program, fostering their support and ensuring long-term sustainability (such as equipment ownership and care, student attendance).
- Data Reporting: Guarantee 100% of tablets report data accurately and on time. Quickly flag and resolve any issues with non-reporting tablets to maintain data integrity.
- Data Usage: Use collected data to deliver actionable feedback to stakeholders during meetings. Teach and empower stakeholders to value and use this data effectively and independently.
- School Oversight: For the first few months, visit each school every week, and after stabilizing at least every 2 weeks, increasing visits if performance lags. Provide daily remote follow-ups when necessary to address challenges or to celebrate successes.
- Problem Solving: Involve ward counterparts (WEOs) and, when appropriate, district officials to address challenges through joint problem-solving and shared ownership.
Your Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s Degree in Community Development, Education, or related field.
- 3 years of experience in community engagement and/or adult behaviour change initiatives.
- Experience working in rural communities, with familiarity with rural community dynamics.
- Experience working collaboratively with government counterparts at the ward or district level.
- Experience implementing or supporting digital or technology-based programs.
- Experience engaging with teachers and head-teachers.
- Experience with data and MEAL processes.
Your Skills:
- Stakeholder Engagement: Ability to build trust, foster ownership, and sustain participation with diverse stakeholders in rural and resource-constrained settings.
- Technical Problem-Solving: Skill in troubleshooting/maintaining basic hardware & software functionality.
- Data Aptitude: Ability to interpret data, identify trends, and provide strategic recommendations.
- Capacity Building: Skilled in mentoring adults to adopt new behaviors, practices, and tools.
- Collaboration / Facilitation: Ability to foster productive relationships and unite diverse stakeholders to facilitate joint problem-solving and shared ownership.

Your Traits:

- Collaborative: You engage effectively with diverse stakeholders and inspire collective action.
- Humility: You listen, learn, and adjust your approach based on feedback and experience.
