Irene Osoata
@ireneosoata
I strengthen clinical quality, health systems, and workforce performance across donor-funded programmes in West Africa.
What I'm looking for
I'm leading clinical operations and quality systems at Africa Medical Centre of Excellence, supporting governance, digital health implementation, performance dashboards, SOP compliance, and service improvement across a cardiovascular and theatre directorate.
Previously at Society for Family Health, I led multi-state paediatric HIV and PMTCT interventions across 50 facilities, strengthened the capacity of more than 200 frontline workers, and improved outcomes for women, adolescents, and children by 30% through adaptive management and performance monitoring.
My work spans maternal and child health, HIV/PMTCT, emergency obstetric care, workforce development, clinical governance, and donor-funded programme delivery. At Plan International Nigeria, I led a US$500,000 MNCH pilot, helped institutionalize a Lagos State-supported ambulance framework, and trained 44 emergency obstetric first responders with 87% competency retention.
As a medical doctor and public health specialist, I bring over 15 years of experience translating data, technical assistance, supportive supervision, and stakeholder partnerships into stronger health systems across Nigeria and West Africa.
