Job Title: Senior Program Officer, Surveillance
We are seeking a highly skilled professional to join our team as a Senior Program Officer, Surveillance. In this role, you will play a key part in our efforts to strengthen collaborative disease surveillance across low- and middle-income countries.
About the Role
As a Senior Program Officer, Surveillance, you will be responsible for leading our foundation's support for collaborative disease surveillance efforts across the World Health Organization (WHO). This will involve working closely with partners, including bilateral and multilateral donors and agencies, governments in low- and middle-income countries, implementing agencies, non-governmental organizations, think tanks, and academic institutions.
Key Responsibilities
* Steer the foundation's support around collaborative disease surveillance efforts across the WHO, including collaboration with the WHO Berlin Hub.
* Lead the foundation's engagement with the Global Fund on disease surveillance, including the support for collaborative surveillance and investments.
* Support the WHO, Global Fund, and other Global Health Institutions (GHIs) efforts to provide normative guidance on collaborative surveillance, staffing required, and technical assistance needed, particularly at regional and country levels, to strengthen collaborative surveillance.
* Provide advice to and collaborate with the foundation's Africa Team and program strategy teams on opportunities with GHIs to support disease surveillance.
* Build and maintain strong relationships with institutional partners and governments, ensuring clear and consistent communication and representing the foundation as required.
* Provide input into work on cross-foundation activities important to our disease surveillance programming in Africa, including the development of implementation plans to ensure impact.
* Work with internal foundation teams, including co-development of investments, to advance the foundation's priorities on collaborative disease surveillance.
* Design, execute, monitor, and assess complex, performance-based contracts/grants with consultants and grantees.
* Maintain high-quality interactions and oversight of grantees and consultants, providing course correction.
* Contribute to writing background documents, briefs, articles, and presentations, including relevant literature reviews, landscape analyses, and data analysis; organize and prepare for high-level foundation leadership trips.
About You
We are looking for a senior-level professional with deep technical and sector expertise coordinating surveillance efforts for low- and middle-income countries across GHIs. To be successful in this role, you will need to possess the following skills and qualifications:
* An advanced degree in public health, global health, epidemiology, or a similar field (e.g., MSPH, MPH, MD, PhD), with demonstrated experience in disease surveillance and global health.
* Significant experience working closely with partners to achieve health goals, including bilateral and multilateral donors and agencies (especially WHO and Global Fund); governments in low- and middle-income countries (especially countries within Africa); implementing agencies; non-governmental organizations; think tanks; and academic institutions.
* Professional experience managing or implementing complex disease surveillance programs and strategies, and/or providing technical cooperation to national surveillance programs in emerging economies (preferably in Africa), including supporting bilateral and multilateral fund flows to low- and middle-income country governments.
* Experience navigating complex relationships between multiple governmental, non-governmental, and private sector partners, with tact and diplomacy.
* Excellent written and oral communication skills and experience communicating with broad and diverse audiences.
About Our Team
We are a team of passionate professionals dedicated to improving health outcomes in low- and middle-income countries. We are committed to creating an inclusive and diverse work environment that values and respects the perspectives and contributions of all team members.
