PSI is a global non-profit organization focused on making it easier for all people to live healthier lives and plan the families they desire.
PSI is reimagining healthcare, by putting the consumer at the center, and wherever possible - bringing care to the front door.
We see consumer-powered healthcare as the sustainable path toward Universal Health Coverage (UHC).Our strategy sharpens PSI's focus on working more closely with national governments and partners to strengthen primary health care, private sector engagement - enabling public money to flow to private health care provision - and integrate self-care and digital health as critical components of future health systems.
We want to shape mixed health systems, through which the consumer can more easily access quality products, services, and information without financial hardship.
We also support governments to increase the resilience of their health systems to, for example, health emergencies or climate shocks.
PSI's Health Systems Accelerator (HSA) will be leading this work, helping PSI intensify its contribution to country-level efforts to move towards UHC.
What we are looking for
The HSA is building a roster of health systems strengthening consultants to provide on-demand support to PSI country teams as they build their portfolios in health systems strengthening and health security.
We are looking for experienced and energetic professionals with a solid understanding of health systems, strong strategic and analytical skills, experience working with national governments on health sector reform, including relating to health financing and the role of private providers in the delivery of essential health services, and with significant experience in fundraising.
Sounds like you? Read on...Your contribution
You will work closely with the PSI Country Representatives (CR) of the countries where assignments are to be conducted, under the supervision of the HSA's Director of Health Systems.
You will receive technical guidance from the wider HSA team and possibly - depending on the nature of the assignment - from other Departments within PSI.
Your contribution will be in any or all of the following areas:We are looking for someone with the following background/profile:
Specifics
The successful candidate(s) will be set up on an Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC) for a period of one year (this is similar to a framework agreement).
