Job Description for Senior Business Developer
Location: Stockholm, Sweden or depending on the agreement with the candidate

Shifo's Vision is "A day when no mother or child dies or suffers from preventable diseases".
We believe we can achieve our vision by working together with key actors to identify and close the gaps based on reliable and relevant information. Therefore, getting information and strengthening the culture of data use where actual gaps from community to national level can be closed is what we deeply care about.
The very first solution we developed was a point of care eHealth solution where health workers used a mobile device (e.g. laptops or mobile phones) to collect data at the point-of-care delivery. We quickly found that in some regions it worsened the very issues we had set out to improve. Because so many of the areas where we work have unstable electricity, internet connectivity, security, and scarce resources, mobile devices could not be relied upon and sustained.
This meant that health workers had to do double work - collecting data on existing health management information system (HMIS) forms and entering the same information into the mobile devices.
After seeing these issues first-hand, we went back to the drawing board and developed a Smart Paper Technology Solution. This new use of technology blends the paper and digital systems and enables countries to have all the benefits of point of care eHealth Solutions. Read more about Shifo Solution here - https://shifo.org/en/solution/.
Shifo's solution is currently being implemented in Afghanistan, Gambia, Haiti, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia. In these countries, for the first time starting from the year 1960 the Governments agreed to replace these big old registry books with something different that we have created. We designed our product in a way it can work in clinics without electricity, Internet connection and governments are able to sustain it. The solution saves 70% of administration time for health workers compared to the existing system, and still at the end key actors get reliable and complete data, automatically generated reports and performance indicators, which also can be used in the same conditions as the solution itself.
As more countries started relying on Smart Paper Technology Solution, and more partners are joining the movement, Shifo should continue delivering high-quality results and scaling up ongoing initiatives. And that's where we need your contribution to sustain and grow high-quality results.
