1 month ago

Washington, United States Credence Management Solutions, LLC Full time

Job Location: Washington, DC     

Telework Eligible: Yes, at least 3 days per week in-person reporting at Washington, DC office.

Remote Eligible: No.

 

Summary Statement

The Global Health Training, Advisory and Support Contract (GHTASC) delivers effective global health programming to advance the mission of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), Bureau for Global Health (GH) through institutional support and workforce development services from junior, mid-level, senior and expert advisory and administrative professionals.

 

Credence and its partner, the Public Health Institute (PHI), are both employers for GHTASC, and are seeking a Tuberculosis Accelerator Advisor under GHTASC. This position will be hired under Public Health Institute (PHI).

 

The Tuberculosis Accelerator Advisor will serve in the Asia Bureau, on the health team within the Office for Technical Services. In this role, they will be expected to prepare testimony for the Hill, elevate USAID programming during international meetings and demonstrate how USAID is moving TB programming forward. 

  

The Advisor will also be responsible for tracking the bilateral Mission efforts under the Accelerator, mentoring Mission TB staff and assisting them to develop implementation plans that include the most advanced and recent programmatic efforts. They will be responsible for leading trans boundary regional data analysis and elevating this to partners in the region, including ASEAN and the Asian Development Bank. 

 

Position Summary: 

The Tuberculosis Accelerator Advisor will primarily support the Office of Technical Services within Asia Bureau as a PHI Institutional Support Contractor (ISC). In this role, the selected candidate supports the monitoring and management of  technical aspects of the expanding Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA) as well as the Tuberculosis work. In both areas, there are a number of countries in Asia that are getting this funding to support programming for the first time, or in significantly increased amounts. Missions will need help in thinking through the best strategic approaches for programming and how to align their work with the USG and USAID announced strategies. This includes supporting  strategy development and contributing to program design, contributing to expert direction to project implementation, and participating in interaction with  representatives among donors on behalf of USAID TB activities worldwide – working at the country, regional, and international levels. The incumbent serves as one of two technical experts in infectious disease for the Asia Bureau and will be expected to contribute to the development of deep country expertise in a suite of countries. The exact countries will be determined at a later date as the team is expanding and there is a realignment of country backstopping. However, as the Bureau covers regions as diverse as Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Islands, there will be a wide diversity in country and technical challenges in TB.

 

In addition, because the Asia Bureau works in an integrated programming fashion, the incumbent is expected to contribute input to how different sectors (economic growth and environment, for example) both affect TB and GHSA as well how those sectors are affected by TB and GHSA.
