Project Manager - Noora Health

The Agency Fund is a nonprofit innovation lab working to expand human agency — people’s ability to make and act on meaningful choices.

We combine the agility of a startup with the reach of a global network, building projects at the intersection of technology, AI, and social science. Our small, distributed team brings together engineers, designers, researchers, and strategists who care deeply about using technology for human good. We’ve partnered with 200+ organizations worldwide, reaching millions annually through digital tools, behavioral insights, and scalable interventions. We value curiosity, autonomy, and collaboration — and we operate more like a mission-driven startup than a traditional NGO.

We’re looking for a full-time **Project Manager** to join our team. You’ll coordinate and manage a large-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) of Noora Health’s maternal and child health program in India. You’ll work closely with data and behavioral scientists from The Agency Fund, researchers from UC Berkeley, data collectors from the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL), and our partners at Noora Health.

Noora Health’s Care Companion Program model trains healthcare staff to readily transfer health skills to family caregivers, then provides mobile follow-up guidance and support for families once they return home. Noora onboards 3-4 designated “Master Trainers” in each healthcare facility through a 3-day immersive Training of Trainers, and these Master Trainers then train other staff within their facilities to deliver the program. The master trainers are also supported over time - both through digital and in person touchpoints with Noora Health’s implementation team. Families are also encouraged to sign up for the mobile CCP, which provides families messaging on key health behaviors and answers families’ questions.

The project is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a pilot phase to demonstrate the causal impact and cost-effectiveness of Noora Health’s Care Companion Program on neonatal health outcomes. This will be done in partnership with The Agency Fund, the University of California Berkeley, JPAL, Noora Health, and WHO.
